This issue is a key chapter in the run: it delivers the first appearance and origin of Alloy (Ramone Watts), establishing how she bonds with a Vibranium family heirloom to develop a symbiote-like exo-suit and gain her powers. That makes it the origin issue for a character introduced within Thompson's own run on the title.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe broader story arc running through this stretch of issues involves the team facing the vampires of the Shifting Sun, and issue #9 keeps that threat front and center while using it as the frame for Ramone's transformation. Thompson's writing throughout the series gave new and obscure characters room to develop, and Ramone's origin lands squarely in that tradition. Gang Hyuk Lim handles interior pencils, bringing clean, expressive linework to the action and character moments alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis is a raw, ungraded copy in standard single-issue format from Marvel's 2018-2019 West Coast Avengers series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"details\"\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries Title\u003c\/strong\u003e: The West Coast Avengers, Vol. 3 (2018-2019)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIssue\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCover Artist\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gang Hyuk Lim\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWriter\u003c\/strong\u003e: Kelly Thompson\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gang Hyuk Lim\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Marvel Comics\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Year\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrinting\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st Print\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKey Issue\u003c\/strong\u003e: First appearance and origin of Alloy (Ramone Watts)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"disclaimer\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*PHOTO DISCLAIMER:\u003c\/strong\u003e All photos are of the actual items, unless marked as pre-order.
