Magik (2025) | An NWN Comic Book Review

Author: New Wave Nerds Network March 6, 2025 Duration: 21:49

This week, Brennan reviews the recent Marvel comic series starring an underrated X-Man, Magik!

Written by Ashley Allen and illustrated by German Peralta, Magik takes Illyana Rasputin away from the X-Men and sets her out on a solo journey to stop an evil prophecy from being fulfilled.


Magik is joined by a young man who must help her stop evil from being unleashed on the Earth (again).


The first two issues are available now at your local comic shop or on digital storefronts!

Every week on New Wave Nerds, two friends dive deep into the sprawling worlds of comics, blockbuster films, and the latest video games. This isn't a formal debate or a dry recap; it's the kind of enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and often hilarious conversation you'd have with your most opinionated pals. We break down the newest releases, dissect industry news, and revisit classic moments from nerd culture, all with a blend of genuine passion and a critical eye. You'll hear our unfiltered opinions on everything from superhero movie trailers and indie game gems to the enduring legacy of cult TV shows. The goal is simple: to share our deep-dive knowledge and love for this stuff in a way that feels like hanging out. Whether you're a lifelong collector or just casually curious about the latest pop culture phenomenon, this podcast offers a welcoming, insightful, and entertaining space to geek out. Tune in for regular episodes that are as much about the joy of fandom as they are about the specifics. From the New Wave Nerds Network.
