Great to hear about Death's Head's inclusion in next year's Iron Man 2020 event.

No idea what degree of expose he'll get, but I'm always pleased to see him being present.

I was hoping, when I...

Yes, I enjoyed it too - I was worried that it was not going to be up to scratch, but put faith in it and felt rewarded in doing so.

I also managed to get three of the covers - the rarest/most...

When I heard about the new Death's Head series (which is bound sure to be collected, giving us - technically - a collected UK title!), I thought that it would be a great opportunity to cash in with a...

Yes, definitely.

In fact, their entire 90s run of Marvel UK books have yet to be collected (except for the Frontier stuff), so I would vote for these. :)

Gotcha.
Slight confusion between Marvel UK, the 90s imprint, and Marvel UK, the UK publishing arm of Marvel US, I think.

So, of course, there is nothing stopping Marvel (US) from putting out new...

Looking forward to this very much series!

Been waiting for #11 to come out since 1989. :)

I spent years thinking my local newsagent just stopped stocking it.

Good to see him with his name...

Well, Death's Head II was!

In fact, after the MUK imprint imploded, I'm surprised DHII didn't go mainstream, seeing how popular he appeared to be. Much like Spider-Girl outlived the M2 line, I...

I don't quite understand how this can be the case - do you have a source for this? I've not been able to find any word on this outside your observation!

Going one further, I think that Mys-tech are/were a great premise (especially having their fingers in pies across time and space) and their becoming prominent or oppressive would have been a great...

Axel has recently been asked (and he responded) *again* about plans for Death's Head, to which he said he wasn't ready to say.
Normally, I'd take that to mean it's off the table, but since this is...

Oh yes, it was quite good - not quite what I had hoped for some, but for many, it was spot on. Death's Head (I) & Dark Angel both appeared in Iron Man jus before and soon after, respectively.

But...

I'd go for Machine Man, Union Jack & Darkstar.

BUt mostly, Any/all the 90s Marvel UK characters. Death's Head (I & II), Dragon's Claws, Black Axe, Dark Angel, Digitek, Dark Guard, Motormouth,...

This may be completely out there and, maybe, a bit weird, but when watching Age of Ultron, I totally got a Death's Head II vibe from Ultron himself. Not only his mannerisms, but his general...

Shocked about the appearance of a Marvel Frontier Collection - cold it be more a creator-led decision, as opposed to a small step toward putting out the MUK stuff (finally)?

I'm guessing that,...

What are you talking about? Peter was at high scbool for the vast majority of Spidey history - he only graduated recently! Amazing Spider-Man #28, cover date September 1968.

I mean, it's not like...

Hi Axel,
as someone who misses the Marvel UK heroes (Death's Head II, Dark Angel, etc), could you say if any of these are set to appear during Secret Wars?

I'm very much looking forward to Ben Reilly appearing in Scarlet Spiders - of all the new spider-titles coming out during or after Spider-verse, would one more really be all that bad? Ben Reilly has...

Wolverine doesn't end up in so many titles by accident. He boosts sales, hence being in so many books.

So, you don't just take such a money spinner out of circulation, no way.
Wolverine will be...

Deadpool & Death's Head II.
Tragedy such as it is!

If they bring back any MUK character for a new NOW! book, it's sure to be DHII. In fact, considering some of the characters they've have a try with, I'm surprised it's not happened yet! Wasn't DHII a...

Any ideas why Paco Medina is not on #4? Was really looking forward to the StarLord/Thanos showdown with Medina's art... Slightly disappointed now (No offence to the artist on for #4)!

This touches on my thoughts.

The idea of 'casting black' to fill a 'quota' fills me with horror.
What we need is more diverse characters in the comics and, then, for them to sell. It's as simple...

Hi Axel,
We've had Marvel NOW! and All-New Marvel NOW! - what's next for the next run of new titles and arcs? And any chance of including Death's Head (either variation will do) in amongst them? Or...

I'd have to do something with the Marvel UK properties.

There are such rich pickings there and most deserve to reappear somewhere! I like the idea of writing Black Axe. Not only do we have a cool...

Okay, and me too.

I'm Chris, from Oxford, and am a big Doctor Who, Marvel UK & Transformers fan.

So, you can probably see how I got into MUK stuff already!
Transformers UK comic was a staple...
