The Band Gets Back together in ‘A-Force’ #1 [Preview]

A-Force, an all-woman take on the Avengers written by G. Willow Wilson and Marguerite Bennett with art by Jorge Molina, was one of the most anticipated books of the Secret Wars crossover. Of course, it didn't turn out to be quite what readers expected, since Battleworld was populated with alternate versions of everyone's favorite characters, rather than the originals.

But now that Secret Wars is over (or at least, soon will be) Wilson and Molina are giving us exactly what we wanted: a team of powerful women set in our preferred Marvel Universe. The new A-Force #1 will be available January 6th and features Singularity, She-Hulk, Captain Marvel, Dazzler, Medusa, and Nico Minoru.

The preview, consisting of more covers than pages, doesn't reveal much, except that Molina's art is as good as ever. These pages focus on Singularity, a character who originated on Battleworld, arriving in the 616 and beginning to seek out a group of friends who may not know her. That expectation is brought into question, however, by the final page, in which She-Hulk and Singularity share a look that's sure to get a lot of attention on Tumblr.

Here's what Marvel has to say:
