Dynamite Entertainment has announced the third spin-off series from its popular Project Superpowers series, will be Masquerade. The four-issue mini-series will be written by Phil Hester of The Darkness fame, with art by Carlos Paul and Deborah Carita.
“Project Superpowers is such an epic, larger-than-life event that I’m thrilled to be allowed a small role in the event,” stated writer Phil Hester. “I believe Masquerade will give fans of the larger series a look at what makes these characters work on a human level. Masquerade is both a secret origin and a personal memoir of earth shaking events spanning from the golden age to the world of tomorrow.”
