A universe created anew in Ultimate Invasion #1!

Next month, readers will witness a transformation of Marvel characters and storytelling that could only come from two of the industry’s greatest visionaries, writer Jonathan Hickman and artist Bryan Hitch with colors by Alex Sinclair, in Ultimate Invasion #1. The start of a redefining four-issue saga, Ultimate Invasion #1 will see the heroes of the Marvel Universe clash with one of the few survivors of the Ultimate Universe (which met its doom in 2015’s Secret Wars), a confrontation that ends with the promise of something all-new and vastly different than anything that’s come before.

Fans can get their first look into this revolutionary new project this Saturday in Free Comic Book Day: Spider-Man/Venom #1. With a print run of nearly 500,000 copies, this issue will showcase a dramatic scene from Ultimate Invasion #1 where the Maker presents Miles Morales with an offer he may not be able to refuse, while the reunited Illuminati desperately tries to shut down the Maker’s attempt to reshape the Marvel Universe.

In the coming weeks, readers will behold a glimpse into this breathtaking new world and get reintroduced to new versions of familiar characters in a thrilling trailer. In addition, a limited number of retailers can participate in a virtual press conference taking place within the next few weeks, where they’ll have a rare opportunity to learn about the overall development and impact of the series directly from the creators themselves, Hickman and Hitch. Details will be provided shortly in the Marvel Mailer.

Check out all the covers along with interior art and an all-new teaser image that utilizes a data graphic from the debut issue, and pick up Ultimate Invasion #1 on June 21. Featuring covers by Bryan Hitch, Sara Pichelli, Peach Momoko, Ed McGuinness, John Tyler Christopher, Russell Dauterman, and Ron Lim.

Warlock: Rebirth #1 is a bit of a drag

Warlock: Rebirth #1

When the Guardians Of the Galaxy Volume 1 came out, I was more than excited not only because I was a fan of the comic, but I was a fan of the director. I feared the movie would not olive up to what so many readers loved about. I felt instant relief once I knew it was James Gunn. As I was a fan of his sleeper hit movie, Slither, where he carefully balanced horror with comedy.

Like many fans I was looking for all the Easter eggs, one of the biggest ones, being what may have seemed to be Adam Warlock. Unfortunately, that did not pay off in the 2nd movie, but was only teased in it. Thankfully, with the recent release of the final trailer for the last movie in the trilogy, it is no longer a gesticulation but confirmation.  In the debut issue of Warlock: Rebirth,  we find Adam in a precocious position, one in which his future and his past diverge with each other.

We are taken to Monster Isle, where we find Genis-Vell, Captain Marvel’s son, looking for any remnants of his father’s past there. We find out after Adam was weaponized, he returned to Earth to live life as a man, as some of his team takes Genis-Vell to Adam, we find him in a state of disarray. As something strange appeared, draining him of his energy. This strange object starts to call his name, and what emerges, is a carbon copy of himself, bur female, it is Eve Warlock. By issue’s end, we find out she is there to replace him and will stop anyone in her way.

Overall, Warlock: Rebirth #1 is a drag of a story. The story by Marz is promising at best. The art by the creative team is serviceable. Altogether, a story that should get fans hyped for his big screen debut, but falls flat.
