Jubilee is ready to explode into her own solo adventure for Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Written by Gene Luen Yang with art by Michael YG, the X-Man will get a Marvel Voices special titled Jubilee: Deadly Reunion, which will find her exploring her Chinese heritage.

“I’ve been a big fan of Jubilee since high school, when I was reading the Chris Claremont and Jim Lee X-Men run,” Yang said via press release. “She just felt like someone I would’ve been friends with at school, except she’s an X-Man. She’s also an American Born Chinese like me, so I’ve always wanted to tell a story about her uneasy relationship with her roots. I’m thrilled to finally get the chance.”

Added YG, “I’m greatly honored to collaborate with Gene Luen Yang once again. This project is truly a celebratory highlight for me, just like a jubilee itself!”

Jubilee: Deadly Reunion #1 hits stores on April 29, 2026 with covers by Fanyang and Ivan Tao. Check ’em out, alongside the synopsis, below.
