Emma Frost #13
In "Bloom: Chapter One: Hard Knocks," Emma Frost takes a bold step into a new chapter, trading her old life for a fresh start at Empire State University—complete with a blonde hairdo, a new roommate, and a tentative grasp on normalcy. But when her powers flare up during a campus basketball game, forcing her to retreat, she’s suddenly face-to-face with an unexpected reminder of her past: her new academic advisor is none other than Ian Kendall, her old high school teacher. Written by Karl Bollers and illustrated by Adriana Melo, with inks by Sean Parsons, Andrew Pepoy, and Eric Cannon, and colors by Transparency Digital, this issue captures Emma’s fragile balance with quiet intensity, all under Greg Horn’s striking cover.
