In the solicits for Miles Morales: Spider-Man #34, it read “But wait – Miles’ newest recruit is a gamma-powered HULK?! Meet THE SHRINK – and she’s prescribing a little SMASH THERAPY!” Well, it seems that she has gone through a name change between then and the publication of Miles Morales: Spider-Man #33 out in May… and Marvel would like to push Dr. Keisha Kwan’s first appearance in this new role wherever they can… as Powerlift. Previous appearamces of the protege of Doc Samson and therapist to Miles Morales were in Miles Morales: Spider-Man #13, #17, #24-26 and #32, after he sought help…
And this is how we last met her, kicking off the God War storyline.
“The current arc of Cody Ziglar and Marco Renna’s acclaimed run on MILES MORALES: SPIDER-MAN sees the young wall-crawler caught in a divine battle! Chosen as the champion of Anansi, the story-weaving Spider-God, Miles is out of his depth in a vicious feud with Ares, the god of war. Luckily, Miles will get a much-need assist from his psychiatrist Dr. Keisha Kwan, who joins the fight as POWERLIFT in MILES MORALES: SPIDER-MAN #33, on sale May 14. The issue marks the first appearance of the character’s new persona, as her gamma-fueled muscles and uncontainable rage turn the tide of GOD WAR! And don’t miss Powerlift and Spider-Man’s next action-packed contest in MILES MORALES: SPIDER-MAN #34 in June!
“Dr. Keisha Kwan has been a slow burn in our book for almost two whole years, and I’m SO excited for folks to finally see her Powerlift form in action!” Ziglar shared. “Federico did an amazing job designing her – we love gamma/Hulk characters almost as much as we love the work of Akira Toriyama; Powerlift is our homage to both! Marco has drawn some incredible scenes with her that I think folks are gonna love.”
