Peach momokofrom the Marvel series Demon Wars I always get excited about a Marvel comic. Demon Wars: Down in Flames recently released and in the final pages, fans got a look at Momoko’s version of Scarlet Witch and this May, fans will see more of the character with the conclusion of Demon Wars In Demon Wars: Crimson Sin. Demon Wars it’s really fun as it blends Marvel characters and stories with traditional Japanese folklore for a truly unique experience.
The yokai are at war and Mariko Yashida, descendant of the Oni King, must choose which side to take. The fates of the spirit world and the human world hang in the balance. But things just got complicated thanks to the appearance of a mysterious yokai with incredible power. This yokai has a pattern all about him and he wants to paint the world…scarlet.
Talking about the character and Demon WarsMomoko shared:
When designing Momiji, the Demon Wars version of Scarlet Witch, the first thought that came to my mind to represent Scarlet Witch was her anger and betrayal. So with that in mind, I was inspired to create it around the idea of Hannya. Hannya in Japan is used in Noh theater to represent a woman’s anger and jealousy, and these vengeful spirits transform her into a demon.
In Demon Days, most of my characters, even though many of them were yokai, were all yokai who lived in the human world, so they had to “look human.” But in Demon Wars, the story takes place in the Ikai, the world of yokai, so I had more freedom to design the characters. They can be human, animal or an out of this world creature design. So I had a lot of fun drawing each character. Demon Wars is coming to an end and I can’t wait to see how readers react. Thank you!
You can take a look at the cover of Scarlet Sin below and enjoy reading it on May 3rd. The comic is written, illustrated and covered by Momoko with Zack Davisson co-writing it. Did you like the Demon Wars comics?
