CHAPTER THREE: THE DEVOURER!

X YEARS LATER, as a result of the actions of ROGUE and STORM, an ancient evil has been let loose upon the world. Sorcerers are meeting their brutal ends. Magical defenses from DOCTOR DOOM, DAIMON HELLSTROM, THE SCARLET WITCH, DOCTOR STRANGE and many Marvel mystics prove futile. With the help of the disgraced sorcerer DANIEL DRUMM (DOCTOR VOODOO’s ghost twin brother, who died in his very first appearance), ROGUE and STORM will face the ancient evil one final time.

Haitian psychologist Jericho Drumm was Brother Voodoo & now goes by Doctor Voodoo; after his brother Daniel was killed, he took over the mantle Houngan Supreme, using vast mystic might (and counsel from his brother's ghost) to aid Blade, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, the Avengers, the Midnight Sons, Strange Academy & more!

Jericho Drumm; Daniel Drumm; Andres Gastrade

Part 12 of my sigil project, where I design emblems, sigils, seals, and runes for my favorite Marvel magic characters.

My focus, this time, is on prominent houngans, or Hatian Vodou practitioners. Jericho Drumm, aka Doctor Voodoo, and his late brother Daniel, are the most recognizable characters in this category. They share a mystical symbol-- a V-shaped forehead scar which Jericho inherited, along with his powers, after Daniel's death.

Andres Gastrade is a one-off character from Uncanny Avengers who was introduced as a retired superhero known as the Ghost Dancer. I wanted to include him because his presence deepens and expands the history of Vodou as an important magical force in the Marvel world. His symbol is also based on a forehead marking-- in this case, the ornate border of his skull mask.

These name-sigils were inspired by vèvè-- pictorial seals which are used to name and summon individual Loa, similar to the Goetic seals I described in earlier posts. Vèvè designs have been closely linked to Nsibidi, a pictographic writing system from West Africa. I designed them using Ndebe, which is a modern syllabary based on Nsibidi, meant to help revive and decolonize the Ìgbò language. Ndebe allows names and modern words in a diverse range of dialects to be written in a non-white, non-Western alphabet, which I think is amazing!
