Posted • Hey have a new Ned’s Lola (& Friends) drop!!! Sorry it took so long.. and SPOILER warning - the last cover is a 5 month spoiler from Doctor Strange 2
Wanted to celebrate ALL the Filipina/Filipino actors that have been in the MCU with Sakit Wars (homage to the first issue of ‘Secret Wars’, which is now an upcoming film in a future Marvel phase) (For ref: https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Marvel_Super_Heroes_Secret_Wars_Vol_1_1 )
This Includes:
- Yssa Mei Panganiban, - the Black Widow Sonya from the flashback scene from Hawkeye. I’m assuming she is the best stick fighter among her sisters because it’s in her DNA..
- Eugene Cordero, -“Casey” from the Loki series. Potentially the most powerful one here since he can be running around pushing an office cart filled with Infinity Stones.
- Mary Rivera as Ned’s Lola (obviously) (eternal thanks to for letting her know these exist)
- Ginger Gonzaga, -“Nikki” from the upcoming She-Hulk series on D+
- Jane Rumbaua, - Ayla Perez, the Diplomat from Falcon & Winter Soldier on D+ — just assuming she was made an official SHIELD Agent after she helped Cap out.
- Dave Bautista, - as Drax
- Hailee Steinfeld, - as Hawkeye/Kate Bishop
- Ned (obviously), - using the Sling Ring
- Wave, who I’m assuming will be in a future Marvel film at some point. In the meantime, my friend Iris is the ref
- Ari Agbayani, the fil-am Captain America, who I also assume will be in the MCU in the future.
Not shown yet: Nico Santos, who's in Guardians 3 -- uh but I have no idea what he looks like, he'll have to be in the next issue.
Other notes:
- In the comics, Ned Leeds becomes the Hobgoblin at some point, but I highly doubt that happens because of Lola
- Finally figured out a casino/slot machine cover which would have been a big deal to my own Grandma, who loved going to Vegas (I wish she was still around when I was old enough to go)
Prints will be up in the usual spots shortly (see bio)
[Oh when I posted this, it was -- because I was totally aware of that. Yep
