Hela and Knull’s Cosmic Collision Unleashes Hel on Earth in Queen in Black!
This summer, Queen in Black, a five-issue event series by mastermind writer Al Ewing and superstar artist Iban Coello, conquers the Marvel Universe!
Queen in Black spins out of Ewing’s acclaimed work on Venom as well as the new Knull limited series that saw Hela seize Knull’s throne, forcing the God of the Void to claim a new power for himself. Their conflict erupts across the cosmos, coming to a head on Earth where Marvel’s heroes are all that stand in the way of the world being torn asunder by the forces of Light and Dark, both bent on enveloping the universe in their own brand of nothingness! In addition to the core series centered around Spider-Man, Venom, Mary Jane, Eddie Brock, and Dylan Brock, new tie-in series will see Queen in Black’s impact on other corners of the Marvel Universe.
To celebrate the launch of the summer’s biggest event, Queen in Black #1 will be available in Marvel’s new True Believers Blind Bags. They give fans a chance to purchase the issue in special sealed bags, but unlike previous True Believer Blind Bags, Queen in Black #1 True Believers Blind Bags will only contain exclusive variant covers not available for regular ordering. The main cover and regular open-to-order variant covers cannot be found in True Believers Blind Bags, making it the most exciting and rewarding True Believers Blind Bag experience yet! See below for a list of the exclusive blind bag variant covers. In addition to those listed, fans can once again look forward to super rare exclusive covers by surprise contributors, including hand-drawn, one-of-a-kind sketch covers.
