Domino (comics) - Publication History

Publication History

Apart from being a mainstay character in the first series of X-Force, Domino has had two limited self-titled series, one of which had her teaming with Puck against Lady Deathstrike and Donald Pierce. The second revealed her childhood.

Domino did not properly appear in Marvel comics until after several false starts. A Domino imposter, a mutant shapeshifter named Copycat, first appeared in New Mutants, vol. 1 #98 (Feb. 1991), although the real Domino did not appear in that issue. Domino made a brief appearance in a flashback in X-Force, vol. 1 #8 (Mar. 1992), and made her first actual present-day appearance on the last page of issue #11 (June 1992). She appeared in a number of issues of Cable & Deadpool and joined the first Wolverine-led X-Force as of X-Force, vol. 3 #8 (Dec. 2008).

Domino appeared in her own three-issue miniseries with Wolverine entitled X-Force: Sex and Violence, written by Christopher Yost and Craig Kyle and drawn by Gabriele Dell'Otto. The story centers upon Domino and Wolverine's mission to resolve a situation from Domino's recent past. Chris Yost has said, "It's a chance for us to go in-depth into a couple of the characters. In the story, Domino has a hit put out on her and Wolverine finds out about it. Essentially, it's the two of them going out to get that hit removed." Yost adds that the characters are up against the worst killers on the planet.

Domino will appear in Cable and X-Force, a new series by writer Dennis Hopeless and artist Salvador Larroca and set to debut in December 2012.

Famous quotes containing the words publication and/or history:

    I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.
    John Updike (b. 1932)

    While the Republic has already acquired a history world-wide, America is still unsettled and unexplored. Like the English in New Holland, we live only on the shores of a continent even yet, and hardly know where the rivers come from which float our navy.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
