By DaMarko Webster

Marvel Comics is making waves this Native American Heritage Month with the release of KAHHORI: RESHAPER OF WORLDS #1, a special Marvel’s Voices one-shot that will officially introduce Kahhori—a breakout star from the What If…? animated series—into the Marvel Comics universe.

Kahhori’s journey, which captivated audiences in What If…? Season 2, is about to expand beyond the small screen. Written and illustrated by a star-studded team, the issue promises to deliver on the rich potential of this fierce Mohawk warrior. The creative team includes Ryan Little (writer from What If…?), Todd Harris (Marvel Studios artist), and two Indigenous writers, Arihhonni “Honni” David and Kelly Lynne D’Angelo, making their Marvel Comics debut. Acclaimed Marvel artists David Cutler and Jim Terry will also bring their considerable talents to this much-anticipated story.

Kahhori, a Mohawk warrior who first appeared on Disney+’s What If…?, captured hearts with her tenacity and spirit. After saving her people from foreign invaders and even thwarting a deranged Doctor Strange who was threatening the fabric of reality, Kahhori established herself as a force to be reckoned with. But now, in her comic book debut, she’s ready for her next challenge.

The comic sees Kahhori chasing a dangerous threat out of Sky World, landing her right in the chaos of Hell’s Kitchen. While navigating the urban landscape and culture shock, Kahhori encounters some of Marvel’s heavy hitters, including Daredevil, Echo, and Moon Knight. These guest appearances promise dynamic interactions, especially with Echo, a character with deep roots in Indigenous culture.

With her adversary tearing through time and space, Kahhori faces an epic battle that will challenge not only her strength but her adaptability as she fights for the survival of both worlds. Expect fast-paced action, cultural depth, and an exploration of time-bending consequences that Marvel fans have come to love.

This one-shot is more than just a comic—it’s a celebration of Indigenous representation in the Marvel universe. By featuring Indigenous writers Arihhonni David and Kelly Lynne D’Angelo, Marvel continues its commitment to diversity, ensuring that Kahhori’s story is told with authenticity and care. For readers who have long craved more Indigenous representation, KAHHORI: RESHAPER OF WORLDS #1 is not just a must-read—it’s a monumental moment for the comic book industry.

Marvel fans and collectors alike won’t want to miss this. Kahhori’s debut marks a new chapter in both Marvel’s legacy and the ongoing push for more inclusive storytelling. KAHHORI: RESHAPER OF WORLDS #1 is set to be a game-changer, giving readers an unforgettable new hero to cheer for.
