Domino is back!
The luck powered mutant mercenary is blasting her way into X-Force #7 this week.
Domino was part of Cable and X-Force before the reboot into X-Force by Simon Spurrier and Rock He-Kim. She didn’t make the cut when two books ended and the rebirth of a one and only X-Force.
Cable, Psylocke, Fantomex and Marrow have taken on the superhuman arms dealer Volga. Cable’s team is barely surviving the war against their new enemy and each other as tension build among the tightly wound unit.
To win – this team needs a little luck!
Nathan recruits Domino – can she turn it around, save the team and help them beat the odds?
I’m a huge fan of Neena Thurman aka Domino. While there are a ton of tough, gun-toting bad girls and a few most notable mutants with similar powers – it comes down to personality. Domino is always great fun. She lives off the thrill and you can’t help but see it when she’s on screen. I’d hoped her flirtation with Colossus would become something more.
If you want to read a great Domino story check out a two-part issue of X-Men by Seth Peck in which Neena took a break from her team and ended up crossing paths with Daredevil. I said back then this story made me want a Domino ongoing.
And in X-Force: Sex and Violence, we learn how Wolverine and Neena first met and in a new adventure – both are on the run from the Assassins Guild.
Here’s hoping this week’s guest shot leads to a more permanent role for one of the most exciting but underused female Marvel heroes.
