This should come as no surprise given the character\u2019s popularity on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. The character of Bobbi Morse (as played by Adrianne Palicki) is so popular on the show Marvel has considered giving her own spin-off show. So releasing a solo book based on her seems like a no-brainer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/ad33.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1868\" src=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/ad33.jpg\" alt=\"ad33\" width=\"720\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/ad33.jpg 720w, http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/ad33-420x280.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The book will be penned by writer Chelsea Cain, who also wrote the S.H.I.E.L.D. 50th ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL: MOCKINGBIRD. A book that was very well received by critics scoring an 8.6 on COMICBOOK Round Up. So she has a successful history with the character.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Mockingbird_S.H.I.E.L.D._50th_Anniversary_Vol_1_1_Textless.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1869 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Mockingbird_S.H.I.E.L.D._50th_Anniversary_Vol_1_1_Textless-420x649.jpg\" alt=\"Mockingbird_S.H.I.E.L.D._50th_Anniversary_Vol_1_1_Textless\" width=\"420\" height=\"649\" srcset=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Mockingbird_S.H.I.E.L.D._50th_Anniversary_Vol_1_1_Textless-420x649.jpg 420w, http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Mockingbird_S.H.I.E.L.D._50th_Anniversary_Vol_1_1_Textless-744x1149.jpg 744w, http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Mockingbird_S.H.I.E.L.D._50th_Anniversary_Vol_1_1_Textless.jpg 777w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We also really like Miss Cain\u2019s enthusiasm around this project. She was so excited about being interview by CBR she wrote a blog about it on her personal website. She seems to be a breath of fresh air into the world of comics. We also are enthused by her sense of humor as well: \u201cI\u2019m drawn to Bobbi because she\u2019s a terrific character\u2014she\u2019s brainy and cool and confident, and quick with a quip,\u201d she enthuses. \u201cIn fact it turns out we have a few traits in common. We\u2019re not big sharers. We\u2019re control freaks. And we\u2019ve both been married to Clint Barton.\u00a0 I mean, what are the odds?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Taking on the art duties of this book is new comer Kate Niemczyk. Though Niemczyk doesn\u2019t have much of a comic book resume, Cain thins very highly of her and believes she is the best choice for this project: \u201cIt was really important to me that we find someone who could equal her in talent and style,\u201d she explains. \u201cKate draws really beautiful, strong women. It\u2019s kind of her specialty. Bobbi is sexy\u2014and she\u2019s comfortable with sex\u2014and I want to show that and at the same time avoid objectifying her. She\u2019s strong. She\u2019s physically competent. And Kate can draw a woman in a metal bikini and thigh highs and somehow make her look completely in control and badass. So obviously we\u2019re going to get along fine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/mockingbird-cover-de08d.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1870\" src=\"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/mockingbird-cover-de08d.jpg\" alt=\"mockingbird-cover-de08d\" width=\"300\" height=\"449\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Of course the question still remains, what version of Bobbi Morse will we get in this new ongoing series? \u00a0Chelsea Cain has already told us we will be dealing with the fall out of Nick Fury saving her life with a dose of super solider serum (which happened during the Fear Itself storyline). But she has also hinted at not only Clint Barton making a guest appearance, but Lance Hunter as well. Which suggests at aligning Mockingbird to be more like the Bobbi we all know from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.<\/p>\n<p>However they decide to present to the character, we at Super Hero Speak are enthusiastically looking forward to this book.<\/p>\n<p>Read the full interview from Marvel.com: <a href=\"http:\/\/marvel.com\/news\/comics\/25477\/mockingbird_flies_solo_in_2016\">http:\/\/marvel.com\/news\/comics\/25477\/mockingbird_flies_solo_in_2016<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Chelsea Cain\u2019s website: <a href=\"http:\/\/chelseacain.com\/\">http:\/\/chelseacain.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marvel to release an ongoing Mockingbird series<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1676,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[170,992],"tags":[1116,48,1110,1111,1108,1114,702,1112,1109,86,83,1113,238,1115],"class_list":["post-1867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-posts","category-news","tag-adrianne-palicki","tag-agents-of-shield","tag-bobbi-morse","tag-chelsea-cain","tag-clint-barton","tag-fear-itself","tag-hawkeye","tag-kate-niemczyk","tag-lance-hunter","tag-marvel","tag-marvel-comics","tag-mockingbird","tag-nick-fury","tag-s-h-i-e-l-d-50th-anniversary-special-mockingbird"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1867"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1867\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1872,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1867\/revisions\/1872"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1676"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1867"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1867"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/superherospeak.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
