Spotlight On...ECHO!

Post by Monolith »

Debuting in Marvel's Hawkeye series, Echo is the latest hero to receive a show on Disney Plus.* Maya Lopez was a pianist, a prize-fighter, and a performance artist thanks to her natural gift of photographic reflexes, allowing her to duplicate any action she sees someone perform. The deaf daughter of Hispanic and Cheyenne parents, Maya's father was business partners with Wilson Fisk before the Kingpin killed him. Fisk adopted Maya as his ward and encouraged her abilities, using her years later as a weapon against Daredevil. Echo found the right path instead, and became an undercover operative for the Avengers under the identity of Ronin. Passing out of the limelight for several years, Maya recently returned in a big way when the Phoenix Force held a tournament to locate its next host, and chose Echo as the new Phoenix. Now with incredible raw power at her fingertips, Echo struggled to ascend from a street-level vigilante to a cosmic weight class. Still, she's always been a...fast learner.

* (Apparently. Eventually. What do we know?)

I remember discovering Echo as Ronin and was instantly hooked when I discovered she was deaf. I love representation of all sorts! I wonder though, where is the Phoenix now?

Well it left Echo after she exhausted it and the story kinda insinuates it's gone back to the WHR until someone needs it again.
From The Ashes Books I like: X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, Exceptional X-Men, X-Force, Dazzler, and NYX…so far, so good.
