Amy Chu + Andrea Di Vito revisit the early days of ‘Emma Frost: The White Queen’

The five-issue miniseries kicks off from Marvel in June.

Before Exceptional X-Men, the Quiet Council or Tony Stark, Emma Frost was one of the X-Men’s greatest villains. Amy Chu and Andrea Di Vito will return to those days in a new five-issue miniseries, Emma Frost: The White Queen.

“If there’s one character I’ve always wanted to write after Poison Ivy: Cycle of Life and Death, it’s Emma Frost, especially BAD Emma Frost,” Chu said. “This is going to be a whole new Emma-focused story set in the classic days before she joins the X-Men. We’re going around the world to expose the inner workings of the Hellfire Club in a way you’ve never seen before and introducing some new baddies. I can’t believe Marvel is letting me do this, it’s so exciting!”

Jay & Silent Bob will meet the Riverdale gang in a one-shot this summer from Archie Comics

Kevin Smith,Fernando Ruiz, Rich Koslowski, Matt Herms, and Jack Morelli will bring the two stoners together with the Archie gang this July.

Archie, Veronica, Betty, Jughead and the rest of the gang will get two unexpected visitors this summer, as Kevin Smith’s Jay & Silent Bob will make their way to Riverdale this July.

Clerks creator Smith will write Archie Meets Jay And Silent Bob, which will feature artwork by Fernando Ruiz, Rich Koslowski, Matt Herms and Jack Morelli.

“I believe it was Stoic philosopher Epictetus who first said, ‘Everything’s Archie.’ And he was right,” Smith said. “Whether it be Veronica in Clerks or the Mister Weatherbee conversation in Chasing Amy, the influence of Archie Andrews is mixed into the brick and mortar of my pop cultural foundation. So, there was no way I was passing up this incredible opportunity to collide the worlds of Riverdale and the Askewniverse, and introduce icons on the order of Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead, Moose, Reggie, and Josie to reprobates like Jay and Silent Bob.”
