Marvel Comics has revealed Joe Quesada’s character design for the upcoming introduction of Neil Gaiman and Todd McFarlane's Angela into the Marvel Universe. First announced back in March (see "Gaiman Takes Angela to the Marvel Universe") and reimagined by Chief Creative Officer Quesada, Angela will debut in June's Age of Ultron #10, written by Brian Michael Bendis and illustrated by Bryan Hitch, Carlos Pacheco, Alex Maleev, Butch Guice, David Marquez, Joe Quesada, and Brandon Peterson. Age of Ultron #10 will be available on June 19th.
Angela will then appear in Guardians of the Galaxy #5 in July. This issue represents Gaiman's return to Marvel as he will be uniting with Bendis and artist Sara Pichelli to orchestrate Angela's incorporation into Marvel's cosmic arena. Guardians of the Galaxy #5 will be on sale July 24th.
Premiering in 1992 in Spawn #9, Angela was the joint creation of Gaiman and Todd McFarlane for publication by Image Comics. Between 1994 and 1995, Angela received her own stand-alone title, Angela, and had sporadic appearances until a return to Spawn in 2005. Her most recent appearance was Spawn #43 in 2006.
Angela one of the characters in dispute in a hotly contested, recently settled legal battle between Gaiman and McFarlane (see "Gaiman, McFarlane Settle").
