TAXI KEBAB - Ardina [Official Video]

I’m late to the party but Marvel has announced a new novel starring only sorceresses, and Clea as the leader!

“Late this year, enter the Dark Dimension to defeat a supernatural tyrant with four extraordinary sorceresses in Sisters of Sorcery by Marsheila Rockwell from Marvel and Aconyte Books."

The story will take place in the Dark Dimension and Umar will be the antagonist. The book will be available on September 6, 2022.

“In Sisters of Sorcery, deep in the Dark Dimension, the tyrant Umar the Unrelenting craves the Power Cosmic to expand her realm into new dimensions. When she kidnaps the cosmic being Ardina to make a grim battery of her powers, she draws the attention of Clea, her estranged daughter and mighty user of the mystic arts.

Clea knows her mother will stop at nothing to conquer the whole of the Splinter Realms, imperiling all of reality. To defeat her, Clea must ally herself with three powerful sorceresses, each with their own unique powers, traverse dimensions, and free Ardina and the entire Archipelago of Anguish and Redemption before Umar consumes it all.“

The sorceresses on the cover are Talisman (Elizabeth Twoyoungman), Agatha Harkness and Margali Szardos.

Talisman appeared in a few Doctor Strange recent runs (v4 and v5 annual), while Agatha has become more popular for obvious reasons. Meanwhile, Margali is a surprise since she’s a very underground character, but had a story with Stephen in Doctor Strange v2 #57-58. She’s uh... a hard character to make an alignment.

On the other hand, Ardina was a being created by Clea after the Defenders stabbed Silver Surfer and took a bit of his essence to create a female counterpart (they were evil back then thanks to Yandroth’s curse).

From The Order #4.
