Marvel's mutants to enter 'Siege'

The writers of New Mutants and Dark Wolverine have revealed how Siege will affect Marvel's mutant community.

As Norman Osborn's battle with Asgard continues, New Mutant Dani Moonstar is drafted by Hela to help shepherd fallen Asgardians to their afterlife.

Series scribe Kieron Gillen told Marvel.com: "One minute, Hela's calling her to Vegas to repay a favour. The next, she's heading for Asgard and the biggest superhuman confrontation in recent Marvel history.

"She's thrown into a dark ethical situation without enough time to really decide what she thinks about it. She's forced to improvise and live with the decisions."

Meanwhile, in Dark Wolverine the Norse Fates have chosen Daken as the harbinger of the next Ragnarok - the final battle of the gods.

Writer Daniel Way said: "Ragnarok is not just an end, but a beginning, a 'righting of the world'. Daken believes that the human race has essentially cut in line to gain the top spot in the food chain.

"Both the Fates and Daken have a common goal and Daken's utterly nihilistic nature makes him a perfect candidate to achieve this goal."

Dark Wolverine #84 and New Mutants #11 are both out on March 31.
