Marvel Issues Statement Regarding Removal of Princess Diana From Upcoming X-Statix Series
NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–July 10, 2003–Marvel Comics had planned to release a book using the spirit of Princess Diana as one of its heroines. While Lady Diana was portrayed in a positive light in the comic book, upon reflection, the company has decided to remove Princess Diana and all references to the Royal Family from the five-part X-Statix series.
It’s not like I really wanted to see Di as a mutant, but X-Statix would have made it work and we all would have loved it.
