May 06, 2026This was a fun read. I really wish we were getting more than a one-shot out of this. You can feel the love of both the character and the culture that this creative team poured into this issue. Read Full Review

May 06, 2026Jubilee: Deadly Reunion is a Marvel celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Chinese-American writer Yang tells a story about Korean-American character Jubilee who was popularized early on in the 1990s by Korean-American artist Jim Lee. It’s nice to see Marvel reaching outside of the bounds of traditional Marvel Unieverse that had been crafted largely by a bunch of caucasian New Yorkers in the ’60s and ’70s. It’s nice to see an infusion of other elements persisting as things progress into the 21st century. It’s not always a commercial hit, but it’s nice to see them trying for more of a cultural fusion.

May 06, 2026Jubilee: Deadly Reunion delivers a meaningful character-focused story that blends cultural identity with superhero action. Gene Luen Yang gives Jubilee space to reflect on her heritage while introducing new family dynamics that feel personal and engaging. The pacing takes a bit to get going, but the emotional payoff and strong visuals make it a rewarding read, especially for fans looking to see Jubilee in a more introspective light. Read Full Review

The art has its moments, but the story - although based on an interesting idea - doesn’t really work.
