Demon Wars: Shield of Justice – Peach Momoko’s Demon Wars: The Iron Samurai Continues To Expand With New Chapter
Marvel Comics has announced the next chapter in Peach Momoko‘s revolutionary take on the Marvel Universe with the next chapter in Demon Wars: The Iron Samurai. The four-part miniseries ‘Demon Wars: Shield of Justice‘ will be written and drawn by Momoko and will reimagine the iconic Civil War ark with the classic blend of Japanese folklore and unique takes on classic Marvel characters such as Captain America, Iron Man, and Black Panther.
Marvel’s description of Demon Wars: The Iron Samurai reads:
“It’s Iron Samurai VS. Shield of Justice! Mariko Yashida is torn between two worlds: the human world and the yokai dimension—a strange world filled with stranger creatures. The denizens of the yokai dimension need Mariko’s help to stop a war that’s brewing between two factions, one led by the Iron Samurai and his spider-like ally, and the other by a shield-wielding warrior and his panther-like right hand. The clash between them could have cataclysmic consequences for both worlds!”
Momoko shared in the press release her excitement to continue to expand her epic reimagining of the Marvel Universe embellished in Japanese folklore, saying:
“I am very happy to expand the series and get to show more of the love that I have for Japanese folklore and the way it inspires me with new stories told through my Momoko-verse lens. I am also very excited to redesign even more characters because I love character designing! It is a honor to tell my version of the classic Marvel Comics event, CIVIL WAR. My story and characters are already so different from the main Marvel Universe designs, and this series will give fans a chance to see even more fun layers and different takes on Marvel storytelling.“
Demon Wars: Shield of Justice #1 will be available at your favorite local comic shop and digitally on November 16th, 2022. Check out the cover with art by Momoko below:
