Marvel Mangaverse: Arcane Avengers #1
Recruited by the TEN HEADS and forced to undergo magical experimentations, the WINTER SOLDIER leads a reluctant squad of sorcerers, BLOODLINE and WICCAN, to defeat and imprison demonic yokai for their captor’s nefarious purposes.
As a new wave of yokai incursion stretches resources thin, will this be the opportunity BUCKY BARNES needs to make his escape and finally be free?
Or will the reappearance of his former childhood friend, HAWKEYE, throw everything into disarray? No matter what, the ARCANE AVENGERS are in for a fight for their lives
