The X-Men Animated Universes Collide, Spider-Gwen vs. Spider-Girl, Days of Future Past vs. House of M, and more Incursions are Coming to the Marvel Universe

Posted on by Leave a comment

TIME RUNS OUT!

It was the catastrophe that led to the end of both the Ultimate and Marvel Universes and birthed the conflict known as Secret Wars, but not every story of those dark days has been told… Starting in November, five all-new INCURSIONS one-shots reveal the world-destroying battles that erupted across the Marvel multiverse and led into Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribić’s Secret Wars, where iconic heroes and villains from wildly different realities collided—with only one universe able to survive.

The series kicks off in November with X-Men: Incursions #1 by Alex Paknadel and Jim Towe, a dramatic confrontation between two legendary mutant timelines—Days of Future Past and House of M!

Then, in December, Spider-Man: Incursions #1 by Christos Gage and Ron Lim follows two of the Spider-Verse’s most iconic web-slingers, Spider-Gwen and Spider-Girl, in a fight against each other to save their respective homes; and Fantastic Four: Incursions #1 by Ethan S. Parker, Griffin Sheridan, and Paco Medina introduces two wild takes on Marvel’s First Family and the Strongest There Is.

In January, X-Men ’92: Incursions #1 by Christopher Yost, Craig Kyle, and Salva Espin delivers the showdown X-Fans have imagined—and debated—for decades as the iconic X-Men ’92 lineup face off against the mutant teen heroes of the beloved 2000s animated series X-Men: Evolution! Closing out the series with a banger, Avengers: Incursions #1 by Al Ewing and Fran Mariscal Mancilla sends the ruthless villains of Time Runs Out—Thanos and his Cabal—crashing into the Silver Age to wreak havoc against the bright-eyed original Avengers lineup!

Who will be left standing?

As a gamma-powered Fantastic Four battles a rampaging cosmic-powered entity born from Banner’s desperate mission, Reed Richards faces the one problem even he can’t solve. In the final hours before oblivion, will Marvel’s First Family save their world…or find the courage to say goodbye?

Doomquest #4

(W) Ryan North (A) Francesco Mobili

Doom finds his consciousness inside the body of someone with no power, no standing and without anything beyond what this poor orphaned boy can scrounge on his own… which is to say, Doom finds his consciousness within his CHILDHOOD SELF. But now, with the knowledge of what is to come, Doom has a chance to do things differently — and BETTER. He can make different choices — win different battles. Rather than travel an ocean to study — in America, where he would meet his hated rival, Reed Richards, and become disfigured… he can stay in his home country, with his first and only love: a beautiful and clever young Latverian woman named Valeria. It’s a journey to the center of Victor Von Doom himself as he discovers how wildly differently his life could’ve gone… and the price he must pay to keep such victories!

Doomquest #3

(W) Ryan North (A) Francesco Mobili

Doom has escaped the Titanic and now finds himself in a strange new body, in a strange new world: America, at the start of the Revolutionary War. The world is about to change, and a young nation is about to take on the British Empire: the single most powerful military in the history of the world. But Doom has other plans — and sees an opportunity here to give history a better form. Can one man, acting alone, truly change the course of history? And does the answer change if that one man, acting alone, creates a laser Gatling gun centuries ahead of schedule?

Doomquest #1

(W) Ryan North (A) Francesco Mobili

Doctor Victor Von Doom is a great scientist, an unparalleled sorcerer, and the ruler of his own nation. He is, by any measure, a great man. And yet Doom wants more. And when Reed Richards — Mister Fantastic, his greatest enemy and eternal rival — is showcased at a prestigious international event to which Doom wasn’t even invited, Doom is outraged.

Reed shares his plan for his eventual retirement project: the total optimization of history. He intends to go back in time, to all the eras humanity wasted on war and conflict, and fix them, saving trillions of lives and ensuring humanity can achieve its greatest and final glory. The idea of Reed rewriting history in his own image is, of course, antithetical to Doom, and so he decides to do it before Reed does. But when the Fantastic Four intervene, Doom finds himself in a battle he never intended — across all of time and space!

Now, see him embark on his most ambitious quest yet in this definitive new Doom saga from two industry superstars. A standalone, evergreen story, Doomquest provides a perfect introduction and all-encompassing exploration of the character as he journeys through time to achieve glory for Latveria—and the ultimate victory over his archenemy Reed Richards!

THE DAYS OF DOOM!

Doctor Victor Von Doom is a great scientist, an unparalleled sorcerer and the ruler of his own nation.  He is, by any measure, a great man. And yet Doom wants more. And when Reed Richards – Mister Fantastic, his greatest enemy and eternal rival – is showcased at a prestigious international event to which Doom wasn’t even invited, Doom is outraged.

Reed shares his plan for his eventual retirement project: the total optimization of history. He intends to go back in time, to all the eras humanity wasted on war and conflict, and fix them, saving trillions of lives and ensuring humanity can achieve its greatest and final glory. The idea of Reed rewriting history in his own image is, of course, antithetical to Doom, and so he decides to do it before Reed does. But when the Fantastic Four intervene, Doom finds himself in a battle he never intended – across all of time and space!
