Kahhori is going from Sky World to Hell's Kitchen in a new Marvel comic.
What if Kahhori reshaped the Marvel Comics Universe?

Out November 16th in honor of Native American Heritage Month, the Marvel Voices special is written by Kahhori's co-creator, Ryan Little, and Indigenous creators Arihhonni "Honni" David (the I Like to Read books Who Will Win? and The Good Game) and Kelly Lynne D'Angelo (Spirit Rangers and Dungeons & Dragons Candlekeep Mysteries) in their Marvel Comics debuts with art by David Cutler (Marvel's Voices: Heritage special), Jim Terry (Marvel's Chee'ilth), and a cover by Afua Richardson (Black Panther: World of Wakanda).

The just-announced spinoff comic picks up after the events of the season 2 episode "What If... Kahhori Reshaped the World?," which took place in a reality where the Space Stone — the cosmic cube known as the Tesseract — survived Asgard's destruction at the hands of Surtur and fell to Earth, landing in the sovereign Haudenosaunee Confederacy before the colonization of America. She reappeared in the season 2 finale, joining forces with Captain Carter (Hayley Atwell) when Doctor Strange Supreme (Benedict Cumberbatch) began capturing variant "universe-killers."
"The Mohawk warrior Kahhori fell into Sky World and into our hearts from her first appearance fighting invaders to her home. She's already helped save all of reality from a demented Doctor Strange and secured peace in her own world… So what NOW?" the synopsis states. "Award-winning storyteller Ryan Little launches Kahhori into the 616! Chasing a threat out of Sky World, she lands in the fiery streets of Hell's Kitchen! But culture shock's gonna be the least of her problems as her strange adversary tears through NYC. Featuring exciting guest stars and the comics debuts of some extraordinary creators, Marvel's Voices brings you an extra-special anthology celebrating Indigenous heritage and one of the most exciting characters to emerge from the MCU!"
"Kahhori, pronounced 'KAH-HORTI,' is a real, Wolf Clan name, meaning 'she stirs the forest' or is someone who motivates those around her," Little told Marvel.com about the original creation. Marvel Animation — including director Bryan Andrews, executive producer A.C. Bradley, and story editor Matthew Chauncey — developed Kahhori in close collaboration with members of the Mohawk Nation, historian Doug George and Mohawk language expert Cecelia King, to ensure cultural authenticity.
Marvel Voices: Kahhori: Reshaper of Worlds #1 goes on sale November 16th from Marvel Comics.
