Nico Minoru
Marvel's Midnight Suns
“When blood is shed, let the Staff of One emerge!”
Nico Minoru was raised in an affluent Japanese-American family devoted to charity…or so she thought. In truth, to Nico’s horror, her parents were powerful sorcerers and members of a villainous organization called the Pride. After Nico absorbed the powers from a magical staff, she became a witch with near-boundless powers...except that her magic can be chaotic and unpredictable. Her powers bend to her will, preventing her from hurting an ally or healing an enemy, but precision can be challenging.
Shang-Chi
MARVEL SNAP
A renowned criminal sired a child who he raised as his heir to an insidious secret society and named him Shang-Chi, the “rising and advancing of the spirit.” In a hidden, ancient fortress in China, the boy became adept at both a multitude of martial arts and philosophical disciplines, completely unaware of his father’s evil pursuits.
As a young man, Shang-Chi found himself tasked by the society to assassinate an old enemy of his father’s, but during the mission came into contact with a venerable British secret agent named Smith. The man illuminated the society’s global criminal activities and in doing so set Shang-Chi on a path to declare war on his own father and everything he stood for.

When the science-obsessed organization known as A.I.M. ambushed a Stark Industries event where Seol was performing, she bravely attempts to defend the attendees, resulting in A.I.M. soldiers locking her in a hi-tech storage freezer. While trying to escape, she is exposed to the contents of an advanced cold-fusion energy experiment, which unexpectedly grants her control over frozen elements. Using her newfound powers to fight back, Seol surprises and defeats the A.I.M. forces’ attack.
