Well, that's four posters now. Ah well, Phoenix is going to be mentioned in this story.

That is what happens when you hire people based on popular current events instead of qualified people who have a genuine interest in the field as well has a history of writing.

the dog whistle sensor in this hand is going off like crazy for some reason

It's 3:45, I say we get one more and it actually gives us details on what this is about.

talked to a person in the know about this and i dont want to spoil anything before the intial press release but this is for a huge tribute book/limited series special event planned for stan lee

war of realms starts in april and several of the main marvel book are having dedicated tie ins to the event hell ive seen art already for some of the big books tying in like avengers thor hulk, etc

That would be nice, and it makes sense.

Which I might have to read about tomorrow depending on how long it takes for them to release any more posters since it's 8.48pm here.

Here's my guess. The word "destroyed" is a hint that leads to the Destroyer - a character that has been around since WWII. When WWII was over, the Destroyer and his lover, Union Jack, formed an undercover superhero group called the V Battalion, with the purpose of hunting leftover Nazis and preventing new holocausts and the rise of future would-be conquerors like Hitler. Given such a mission statement and the fact that they were active in the 50's and 60's, it seems plausible to me that they might have had a hand in manipulating events that spawned a new generation of superheroes.

I'm gonna guess it's a god figure doing all this jazz.

[LordUltimus]

damn. i was hoping this wouldn't touch the x-men////

On the plus side, at least they're acknowledging them again.

[JudicatorPrime]

no no no if they have an opportunity to change the stupid phoenix egg retcon in anyway, they should go for it

I totally agree with this.

[JudicatorPrime]

What's a good anagram for Stan Lee? Because that's going to be the name of the cosmic being that they credit with destroying/rebooting Marvel history.

I hope I'm not spoiling anything, but "Jean" died (well, she was in a cocoon and Dark Phoenix got disintegrated).

[Steroid]

At this point ii am not even worried about any of this, with War of the Realms coming in April there's no way widespread change across the MU is coming before then.

These are landmark events in Marvel Comics: The F4 kicked off the Age of Marvels, the Dark Phoenix Saga was the go-to X-Men story for decades, Spider-Man No More has the iconic scene with the suit in the trash can, and Captain America being frozen and found in the modern world led to the Avengers as we know them.

Now what do all these things have in common? Kang.

Fantastic Four: Kang is descended from Reed Richards by either Valeria or Franklin.
Avengers: Kang is arguably the most recognized villain not named Ultron.
X-Men: Kang has a direct role in the backstory of Apocalypse.
Spider-Man: Kang once impersonated Spider-Man to, guess what, kill the Avengers.

At least that's how I would have written this.

Im betting Akira has 12 more months, you can bet Disney will say sayonara, to the CB era. Good riddance.

These teasers are straight trash.

Well I don't know who to blame for it, but seriously what is it everyone is supposed to be getting hyped about? They border on nonsensical to the point people have to imagine some horrible result of this.
