Marvel Comics is excited to introduce their newest hero, Mosaic. He will headline his own ongoing series starting this Fall. The series, by American screenwriter and novelist Geoffrey Thorne and artist Khary Randolph, is launching as part of the Marvel NOW! initiative.

MOSAIC centers on pro basketball player and celebrity, Morris Sackett. He is loved by millions, but is hated by his teammates. "Only Morris is secretly something else – something Inhuman. Coming into contact with the transformative Terrigen Mists has given Morris spectacular new abilities. Imbued with the ability to jump from person-to-person like a ghost, Morris can control the bodies and memories of those he inhabits. But these fantastic new abilities come at a grave cost. Recognized as an all-star athlete, Morris has worked his whole adult life to raise his body to peak physical form, but after his transformation, his living body is no more, and Morris must now rely on other bodies to survive."

Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso said, "To say that Morris will have a long, hard road to travel to become a hero is an understatement. One minute, Mosaic holds the world in the palm of his hand, the next, he has absolutely nothing, except for powers that will transform him into one of the Marvel Universe's most complex characters -- powers that , if not properly harnessed, will feel more like a curse".

We'll get our first look at Mosaic next week in UNCANNY INHUMANS #11. There is also a special 10-page origin story available for free at select Barnes & Noble retailers. MOSAIC #1 debuts in October 2016.
