Racehorse legends given Marvel twist

(CNN)Red Rum, Frankel and Kauto Star were all legends on the racetrack in their own right, and now they have been turned into superheroes in a new comic book, in which even British monarch Queen Elizabeth II makes an appearance.

Red Rum, the only horse to have won this weekend’s Grand National three times, the unbeaten Frankel and two-time Gold Cup winner Kauto Star star in the ‘Magnificent Racehorses,’ which tells the stories of ten of Britain’s greatest racehorses.
Created by artists Martin Griffiths and Simon Furman, who also work for Marvel, the equine superstars now join the likes of Spider-Man and Black Panther with their very own superhero comic book.
