Superstar writer Gene Luen Yang is returning to Shang-Chi with artist Dike Ruan for a new ongoing series launching from Marvel in May. Now that Shang-Chi has taken his place as the leader of the Five Weapons Society, his fellow superheroes from Spider-Man to the X-Men to the Avengers start to question his motives, and some old friends become new foes.
The launch of the new series will follow the release of the collection of this creative team’s first series, Shang-Chi by Gene Luen Yang Vol. 1: Brothers & Sisters on March 31 (see "’Shang-Chi’ Collected into a First Volume").
Yang had a big year last year in addition to his first Shang-Chi series, with two award-winning top sellers from other publishers: Dragon Hoops, from First Second, and DC’s Superman Smashes the Klan, which both took home Harvey Awards (see "Gene Luen Yang Wins Two Harvey Awards"). Superman Smashes the Klan was also on the YALSA Top Graphic Novels for Teens list (see "YALSA Unveils This Year’s Top Graphic Novels for Teens List").
Leinil Francis Yu contributes the "A" cover. Release date is May 19.
