“Dragon Quest”

In "Dragon Quest," Kitty Pryde ventures to Japan on a mission for Ryoko Oshiba, an agent of the secretive Japanese Department of Supernatural Sciences, tasked with tracking down a stolen green dragon. As an assassin from the enigmatic Path of Destiny begins gathering intel, Kitty finds herself caught in a high-stakes game of shadows and secrets. Written by Akira Yoshida and brought to life by Paul Smith’s dynamic art and Christina Strain’s vivid colors, this issue blends supernatural intrigue with the personal stakes of a hero stepping into the unknown. The cover by Paul Smith captures the tension of the moment with striking precision.
