Doctor Mirage Series Coming in September From Valiant Comics, Jen Van Meter and Roberto de la Torre

Valiant Entertainment announced today that as part of their sweeping Vailant First initiative, the publisher will revive a Doctor Mirage series, spinning out of the events of Shadowman where they recently rebooted and retooled the character and concept. "Since the Summer of Valiant, we've been slowly building towards several key events. You can see the first of these events this April in Harbinger Wars, where Bloodshot and Harbinger collide," Valiant CEO and Chief Creative Officer Dinesh Shamdasani said back when Shadowman #5 hit and reintroduced the character. "The return of Dr. Mirage is part of that plan — part of setting the stage. Dr. Mirage is a key piece in the future of the Valiant Universe and the timing of the return, as well as the manner, is no accident." Written by Jen Van Meter with art by Roberto de la Torre, details are scant on the series, which will launch in September 2014. You can see the first issue's cover by Travel Foreman above and solicitation text below. THE DEATH-DEFYING DR. MIRAGE #1 (September) Written by Jen Van Meter (Hopeless Savages); Art by Roberto de la Torre (Daredevil) World-renowned parapsychologist Dr. Mirage and her husband Hwen were madly, deeply, stuff-of-legends in love – until the day a tragic accident stole Hwen away. Now, Dr, Mirage will have to use every ounce of her training and talents in the mystic arts to do the one thing Hwen taught her never to do – journey across the realms of Deadside and bring her love back to the land of the living.
