WILDCATS Returning at DC Comics

WILDCATS Returning at DC Comics

July 26, 2019 Off By Michael Stagno

The creative duo of Warren Ellis and artist Ramon Villalobos will bring back WildCATs to DC Comics, continuing the 24-issue run of The Wild Storm, this summer.

The six-issue miniseries will highlight the covert black-ops team of Grifter, Savant, John Colt and Adrianna Tereshkova, as they discover a secret space program, dubbed ‘Skywatch’, has been abducting innocent people and performing experiments on them. When one of those ‘experiments’ breaks out, revealing a new threat that no one was prepared for, the stakes are high.

“The first line I wrote down for WildCATs was, ‘Saving the human race from the human race’,” Ellis said. “It’s a team made up of people who have seen the worst in everybody and everything, and yet still put themselves in frankly absurd amounts of jeopardy just so tomorrow might be a little bit better. And it’s a short series, so I might just kill them all. Come and see what happens. The art is great.”

UPDATE: The series, which was initially supposed to launch on August 28, has been removed by DC, to be released at a later date, possibly in winter.
