Marvel has revealed more information about the next installment of the Sentry’s overarching story. Writer Jason Loo and artist Luigi Zagaria are set to reveal what happens to the power of the Sentry when Bob Reynolds is no longer alive and able to claim it this December. Featuring a series of new characters like a Front Line reporter with cerebral palsy and a mutant Door Dasher, the book will investigate who takes up the role through the perspectives of Jessica Jones and Misty Knight.

In the press release, writer Jason Loo discussed the core of the book, stating:

“This entire series is a mystery where we follow Jessica Jones and Misty Knight as they figure out these catastrophic accidents caused by random strangers with the Sentry’s powers. You’re going to witness a bunch of origin stories, like Mallory Gibbs, a writer for Front Line news who lives with cerebral palsy. Farhad Anand is a mutant keeping a low profile as a DoorDish bicycle courier. And Ryan Topper, a teenage fanboy who gets to live his dream of becoming a super hero. And there are a few more further into the story. But the real question is….how are they all connected to Robert Reynolds?”

Marvel has shared some designs from Zagaria for the new characters, alongside variant covers for the debut issue. Those can be seen below:

The Sentry is dead, but ordinary people all over the world are suddenly manifesting his powers and experiencing snippets of Bob Reynolds’ memories. But not everyone can be trusted with such responsibility, sparking a violent conflict to control the Sentry’s legacy. Will one of them survive long enough to emerge as the new Sentry? Or will their newfound power destroy them? When Misty Knight and Jessica Jones cross paths in search of answers, they open an investigation that will change everything you think you know about the Sentry!
