Back in 2014, the world learned that Peter Parker wasn’t the only one who was bitten by the radioactive spider in Amazing Fantasy #15. Equipped with spider powers of her own, Cindy Moon took the Marvel Universe by storm as the beloved super hero Silk! Just announced at C2E2, Silk will weave a new web this July, filled with ruthless new villains including the cat demon Kasha as Cindy takes on a new investigative reporter gig under the one and only J. Jonah Jameson.
Acclaimed novelist Maurene Goo (I Believe in a Thing Called Love, Somewhere Only We Know) makes her grand foray into comic books alongside superstar artist Takeshi Miyazawa to deliver a thrilling series that will pack action, heart, and relevatory insights about the character. Cindy’s new mission will quickly turn as personal as it is deadly and prove Silk to be one of Marvel’s most dynamic and intriguing heroes.
“The opportunity to write a Korean American super hero—a woman, no less—is one that I never thought would come my way,” Goo said. “I’m so excited to flex this writing muscle and to explore new stories for Silk—a character I love. Her fierceness and loyalty are qualities I understand and relate to, and I hope readers feel the same as she fights new foes and protects old friends.”
Don’t miss a beat of the latest adventures of Cindy Moon when SILK #1 swings into comic shops in July!

Well, Alex Ross, Joe Jusko, Kevin MacGuire, etc. seem to have done pretty well for themselves with realistic proportions. I mean, it can't all be Boris Vallejo.

I know the drawing styles have changed throughout the decades, but generally women characters have never been drawn in a less thancomicalfashion. I can see why you would be confused when a naturally proportioned female character is depicted in a comic book when you expect to she a clownishly busty, thin waisted barbie doll....ah the 90s. How we do miss them.
If a 12 year old boy looks like that he better get a haircut and do some push ups.
Her last solo was surprisingly pretty good. So hopefully this will be as good

Yes, and I am wondering if you did. She's definitely got a female body frame.

My favorite superheroine is back! Yes! I am so looking forward to what new adventure awaits her. I have the comic where she makes her first appearance next to her Marvel Legend on my wall.
