Starbrand & Nightmask Cover (GalleyCat)Marvel plans to launch the Starbrand and Nightmask comic series. According to the announcement, the two young superheroes will take on a challenge of a less villainous nature: college.

The story “will look at everything from balancing epic battles with homework to figuring out how to navigate social circles.” Comic Book Resources reports that these characters originally came “from the 1980s ‘New Universe’ line.”

Greg Weisman will serve as the writer for this project. Dominike Stanton has been brought on as the artist. At this point in time, no release date has been set for the first issue. (via Examiner)
