Tegan Quin, part of the musical duo Tegan and Sara, has contributed to Marvel Comics’ special one-shot, “Wiccan & Hulking: Raid of Ultron #1,” set to release on May 27. This comic showcases the beloved gay couple Wiccan and Hulkling along with their families, emphasizing the significance of community and bonds during challenging times.
In the story penned by Quin and illustrated by Luciano Vecchio, the narrative revolves around the twins Wiccan and Speed uniting to combat Ultron while navigating their distinct paths as siblings. Quin expressed her excitement in writing for Marvel, particularly about characters like Wiccan and Speed, stating that the experience felt magical and served as a cathartic release.
“Wiccan & Hulking” will not only feature Quin’s contribution but also writings from Wyatt Kennedy, Josh Trujillo, and Zoe Tunnell, accompanied by artwork from Rachael Stott, Bradley Clayton, and Stephen Byrne.
Apart from her Marvel endeavor, Quin, residing in Vancouver, is advocating for Loghan Paylor’s novel “The Cure for Drowning” on Canada Reads 2026. Canada Reads is an event where five Canadian celebrities choose a book for the nation to read, engaging in debates over four days to determine the winning selection.
Quin and her sister have a successful music career, releasing ten studio albums and popular tracks such as “Closer,” “Where Does The Good Go,” and “Walking with A Ghost.” Their achievements include selling over a million records, earning Juno and GLAAD awards, a Governor General’s Performing Arts Award, and nominations for the Polaris Music Prize and Grammy Awards.
In 2019, the twins expanded their writing endeavors by publishing their joint memoir, “High School,” and a graphic novel series, “Tegan & Sara: Junior High,” illustrated by Tillie Walden. Additionally, they established the Tegan and Sara Foundation to provide support and investment in 2SLGBTQ+ communities, leading to them receiving the Humanitarian Award at the 2024 Junos.
