Let us know by posting which books you'd pick up in the virtual Age of Marvels Store (this solicitation thread). You can pull as many as you'd like, but also consider your "virtual budget" when making your selections, as sales are used to reward our titles and plotters. Registers are open all month and sales are tallied at the end of the month.

Absolutely anyone can make purchases right here in this thread - so please do!. It’s free and is basically just saying “I’d read this” or “I like this!” So let us know! There has never been a more excelsior time to join the fun!

NEGATION #4
Event Miniseries
Written by JEFF PARKER
Plot by H-E-D
Art by DUSTIN WEAVER with CHRISTIAN WARD
“PROTECT THE LAND”
At the death of one multiverse, a man was transfigured by the birth of the next.
Assimilated into the Machine of Cosmic Consonance, he became the Devourer of Worlds, Galactus.
But he wasn’t alone.
NEGATION DAY -ℕ
The birth of the Negative Zone.
While many call Galactus a god, he rejects the title. His “brother”, however, does not.
As the Devourer is to our universe, Charon is to the Negative Zone. But Charon views cosmic balance disdainfully.
Creating the Lawbringers as his army of heralds, He brought the Negative Zone to heel, before setting his sights on the Bright Universe — our universe.
Full on the flesh of a thousand worlds, Charon was too much for Galactus alone. And so, their “sister” Solusandra, the Lifebringer, sacrificed herself. She sealed herself away, dragging Charon with her
Their master gone, the Lawbringers scattered to the wastes of the Negative Zone. Galactus resumed his duty. And Solusandra’s last Herald became a nomad in space and time.
NEGATION DAY 52
The Siege of Ciress.
The Negation Wave has come at last to Ciress.
All across the surface of the world, mages from all corners of the universe do their best to maintain the magical shell that protects them.
But, as Lawbringer bombardments continue, the truth becomes apparent: the barrier will fall, and soon.
Things were bad enough before the possessed Anti-Nova Corp joined the battle! The Sorcerers of the Stars arrive to match them, but there’s only so much they can do against literal armies. And that’s before Anti-Nova reveals his trump card.
For, you see, he isn’t Richard Rider at all, not anymore.
By infusing the Cosmic Control Rod and the Nova Force with Anti-Magic, the Lawbringers have made the perfect vessel for Charon, God-Emperor of Negation!
The Nova Corp merges into a singular gestalt – Charon walks the starways of the Posi-Verse once more! All would be lost, if not for the arrival of Galactus himself!
Meanwhile, in the Negative Zone, the New Annihilators reach their goal: the empyrean prison of Charon — and Solusandra. Danik, her Herald, realized Charon has subverted his bondage. To set things right, the seal must be broken, the Lifebringer freed.
But, how do you break a lock set by the forces of existence itself? Only someone of tremendous power and strength of will could break the seal.
Adam Warlock has both. A lifetime of defying destiny comes to a climax as he gives his life to shatter the God-Kyln.
In a flash of light, everything changes. Not an end, but a new beginning, crossing all of time and space. Danik smiles as the CROSSGENESIS begins!
NEGATION DAY FINAL
Untold eons of bondage left both Charon and Solusandra incorporeal. Charon forged himself a new body... but the Lifebringer has a different way.
Solusandra’s power binds itself to great beings across all existence. They bear her mark, her Sigil. In Otherworld, the Heron Dynasty’s prince. In Demetria, a young pirate. On Quin, a devious tyrant. On Larrinaga, a priest. On Ciress itself, Giselle Villard.
And on Earth, young Sam Andahl-Rey of South Carolina suddenly finds herself imbued with unimaginable power.
Unfortunately, the breaking of the seal means that Charon instantly returns to full strength, allowing him to strike an incapacitating blow against Galactus!
Ebullient, Charon aims to strike a planet-killing blow to Ciress. But to his shock, Ciress’ shield has suddenly become unbreakable!
How, you ask? Simple. Danik brought a hastily curated group of Sigil-Bearers to the field. (He brought the New Annihilators back too. They were worried for a moment there.) Straining their power, they reinforce the barrier.
The Sigil-Bearers are few in number, but their efforts quickly break the Lawbringers’ ranks. The power of the Sigils, the Energy Transcendent, proves uniquely disruptive to Charon’s Force Opposite!
Charon, enraged by the sight of his Lawbringers toppling at his moment of triumph, aims an attack directly at Sam Andahl-Rey, who isn’t fully convinced the whole experience isn’t a wild dream. She shocks a galaxy by not only stopping the attack, but also staggering Charon with the blowback!
Inspired, the Annihilators rally the Sigil-Bearers in a direct attack on Charon, shattering his gestalt form back into the individual Nova Corp members!
It’s time for a rematch as the Sorcerers of the Stars seize the opportunity to take down Anti-Nova. Peter Quill failed his friend once: he won’t do so again. He uses an ingenious spell to separate Rich from the Cosmic Control Rod, liberating the entire Nova Corp!
Chaos reigns as Negation command collapses — but the Anthrosians thrive in chaos. The moment of opportunity is fleeting.
Together with Danik, the Sorcerers of the Stars cast an experimental ritual. Using the Cosmic Control Rod as a focus, they invert the Negation!
Anti-Matter returns to regular matter. The border between the Negative Zone and the Posi-Verse is restored. The Crunch is once again at equilibrium.
POST-NEGATION
A universe dimmed.
The Bright Universe is victorious, but not unscarred.
Defeated, the Negation Wave scatters; a recovered Galactus helps purge what remains as a gesture of goodwill. But the Lawbringers remain out in the shadows. With the seal broken, Charon’s essence is free.
Danik returns the Sigil-Bearers home, before vanishing. The Posi-Verse is far from the same. Scars of war aside, the universe itself is smaller. Around 20% of the Universe was permanently assimilated into the Negative Zone. The reborn Annihilus grows fast, and already schemes to reclaim the Control Rod from R'lalmis.
The balance of intergalactic power is transformed, as the Shi’ar Imperium dies. While some former imperial worlds form a more egalitarian coalition, most have become independent. Chandilar, still occupied by Anthrosians, is powerless to stop them.
And in the end, the galaxy mourns the fallen. Services are held for those who gave their lives.
One is a small affair. His legacy is complicated. The galaxy’s stalwart defender turned war criminal. But in the end, he gave his life so that everything else could live.
Adam Warlock died a hero. For the Sorcerers of the Stars, that is enough.

Plot by MARVELL2100
Art by SALVADORE LAROCCA
“I AM NUMBER SIX”
After the failed experiment of co-existing with the humans on New Caprica, the Cylon Council has re-grouped to assess recent events. Hundreds of thousands of Cylon Raiders were destroyed and three base-stars were lost during the kamikaze attack by Battlestar Pegasus which allowed Galactica and the rest of the humans to escape off the planet! Aside from the retrieval of the human/Cylon hybrid child Hera, it was an utter failure and many lay the blame at the feet of Number Six and Gaius Baltar! They were the ones who wanted "peace", Cylons and humans living together in harmony and urged the others to give it a chance instead of killing the humans. They believed that they could make it work.
But the humans would not stand for the benevolent rule of the Cylons and it all ended in disaster, the hopes of a new human/Cylon society gone. Now D'Anna and the others on the Council will decide the fate of Number Six and Gaius. She more than anyone deserves the blame for this, her "love" for the human Gaius has had catastrophic results! Will Six become the first victim of Cylon on Cylon murder? How will the others react? What will happen to Cylon society? The answer to these questions will have to wait for another time! Six and Gaius have stolen Hera and fled in a Cylon Raider! Will they return Hera to her true parents aboard Battlestar Galactica and try to find sanctuary among the humans? Or will they forge a new path between humans and Cylons and raise Hera as their own, becoming parents of the next stage of evolution?

Art by ADI GRANOV
“HOUSE OF THE RISING SON!”
T'Challa and Yelena Belova are in Japan looking to have a conversation with Gorgon, White King of The Hellfire Club. There are factions within the Inner Circle of the club led by the White Queen Adrienne Frost looking to strike against T'Challa. Their latest move has been to have the Wakandan criminal Kilmonger join as the Black King. As Yelena continues to layout their plan, T'Challa notices that they are being spied upon by two different forces. Suddenly the Red Queen Viper enters the room and tells them that she and Gorgon are aligned with Frost and that they should leave immediately! However, Gorgon tells them all that he will side with no one and will remain neutral in all Hellfire Club matters. T'Challa thanks him for his time and tells him that he and his team are leaving and tells Fury agents Scorpio and Roz to come along. Everyone else is stunned that they did not notice the two intruders as Gorgon orders the deaths of those who allowed their entry.
T'Challa and the others are on a plane headed back to Wakanda. Roz wants to know how he knew they were there and he tells them he noticed them the minute he was on the estate. They would have wasted their lives in an attempt to kill Viper and their deaths would have mattered for very little. He then turns to Yelena and tells them that the plan succeeded and that she should begin the next phase. She needs to be very convincing if they are to have her join them. The plane lands near the Royal Palace and T'Challa tells W'Kabi to make their guests comfortable. He walks into the throne room to see Shuri, Ramonda and standing next to them Queen Zanda. He greets them and asks Zanda the reason for her visit. Suddenly, a four-year old steps from behind her and she says, "T'Challa, son of T'Chaka! Meet T'Zari, son of T'Challa!"

CAPTAIN AMERICA #33 *Negation Tie-In*
Plot by EXCITER
Written by FRANK MILLER
Art by SEAN GORDON MURPHY
“NEGATIVE OUTCOME”
In the 1940s, Bucky Barnes was part of what many consider the first “super-team”: the All-Winners Squad. He was young and idealistic, adorned in his nation’s colors and fighting objective evil. The world needed that again…
To confront the danger posed by the Negation Wave, as well as by the dark counterfeit “Avengers,” Bucky channeled the spirit of his lost best friend, Steve Rogers, and reformed the All-Winners Squad with people that he knew he could trust. People that Steve trusted: himself, Black Widow, Mockingbird, and Bonebreaker.
In the New York City Negation Zone, he came close to finally eliminating an old enemy. He nearly had the Soviet scum that stole Steve’s mantle - “Captain America” Arkady Rossovich: Omega Red. But the lawbringer XXTR was simply the bigger threat. He had no choice. There was a reluctant team-up. The all-new All-Winners Squad and the dark Avengers fought together. XXTR was defeated. New York City was saved.
And the All-Winners Squad was captured.
Now, labeled a traitor and a domestic terrorist for attacking “Captain America,” he sits in an inescapable cell, locked away deep within the Vault super-prison near the similarly inescapable cells of the friends that he got into this mess. No lawyers. No speedy trial. M.O.D.O.K.’s big tech companies vilifying him publicly 24/7. The world at the mercy of Omega Cap and the villains he has masquerading as heroes. The Steel Serpent even appropriating the name “Winter Soldier.”
Bucky sees no way out. He has only one, fleeting hope: Will the real Captain America, Steve Rogers, come back and set things right?

HULK IN NEGATION #4
Event tie-in miniseries
Plot by EXCITER
Written by MATT KINDT
Art by RON GARNEY
“BODY HORROR”
Bruce Banner’s body and mind have been… traumatized, to say the least. There was his abusive childhood. Then the bombardment of gamma radiation that made him the Hulk. Then the machinations of the In-Betweener and his time off-world. More recently, the One More Day event “killed” the gamma radiation in his system. Then there was a trip to Hell and the lingering effects of Mephisto’s magic. Then a massive influx of anti-magic energy from the Negative Zone thanks to the Negation Wave. Once the Negation effect is over… who knows what he’ll transform into?
Will he be man or monster? Or both? Or neither?
This fear… this uncertainty… is overpowering. One way or another, this chapter of Banner’s journey is coming to an end. But he can’t worry now.
Bruce’s “Credible Hulk” persona is losing a debate to the eloquent and elegant insect Amicilus. He can smash the brainy bug’s logical fallacies easy enough, but Amicilus has raw charisma and a ready retort for almost all his points.
Yet when Annihilus dies and the Lawbringers take over, can Banner possibly argue Amicilus into rejecting the sway of the anti-magic-infused Cosmic Control Rod?

“IF THEY BE NEGATED...” part four “NO COMING BACK”
“FKQR, I would have words with thee!”
King Thor has returned with violent gusto, his negation into humble mortal Dr. Donald Blake at long last reverted! Thor’s divine wrath and thunderous blows begin to turn the tide of the lawbringer assault! Will Asgard be saved?

The elder god Chthon ruled here… and he reduced an All-Father to a mere messenger boy.
“Go and tell my sister Gaea, from whose foul womb you sprang, that I hereby invoke the challenge… Immortal Combat.”
Thor knew not what this challenge meant, though he suspected his mother would - and that it could spell disaster.
“Go now. But go alone. Your god of souls is mine!”
For the lost Ond, Thor vows to bring Chthon low! But is such a thing even possible? And what is Immortal Combat?

Written by ALEX DE CAMPI
Plot by H-E-D
Art by CARMEN CARNERO & GABRIEL HARDMAN
“Conditional Carnage”
Bad Seed. Scourge of St. Estes. Chief Petty Officer. Agent Carnage. Scarlet Spider.
Cletus Kasady has had a lot of names, a lot of faces. Some masks disguised, some revealed.
But, as his alien symbiote rebuilds his adamantium-poisoned brain, the question is not who Carnage was but who Carnage will be.
Zemo isn’t going to leave that to chance, and time is of the essence. So he pulls Moonstone off Archangel duty (over her strenuous objections) to build a total sensory conditioning program for Kasady.
Ordinarily the opportunity would excite Karla, but given that Archangel’s condition is deteriorating, she has a nasty feeling that it’s really not the time.
Not to mention that Kasady didn’t leave them any notes on what the hell the deal is with his symbiote.
Meanwhile...
Norah Winters begins to understand what Ramses wanted from her when he reached out to her as a source. Now that she’s embedded in AKKΔBA as a junior member, he’s begun feeding her topics to cover: puff pieces for him and his associates, attacks on their enemies, the usual favors a cult wants from a reporter.
Norah knows there’s a big story to break here. But how much is she willing to risk to break it?
On the other hand, Dallas Riordan continues her attempts to suss out the secrets behind Zemo’s dirty accounting. An uncharacteristically sloppy error seems at first to be a promising lead — until it turns out to lead back to Songbird instead. Can she and Radioactive Man find a way to explain away the funds they’ve been secretly using to support Troll?

“SQUAD GOALS”
Remember when we all thought the Human Torch died in the Negative Zone but it turned out that they had bug medicine that could bring him back to life? Well that’s happening here - to the whole team!
Paste Pot Pete thought the entire Insecticide Squad was dead dead (like, Uncle Ben dead), but instead they’ve been brought back to life as negative versions of themselves to serve the Lawbringers just like Anti-Nova!
Jihad is now Anti-Jihad!
Ruby Thursday is now Jade Tuesday!
Turner D. Century is now Zoomer D. Century, a straight fire big mad yeeter! Periodt!
Manslaughter Marsdale is now First-Degree Premeditated Murder Marsdale!
Typeface is now Free-Handface!
The Matador is now a bull!
Toughy Tomcat is now Wimpy Femmecat!
Pink Pearl is now Baby Blue Pearl (but still really fat)!
And Armless Tiger Man is now Multi-Armed Liger Man!
What a dilemma! Paste Pot Pete is within sight of his objective: getting POTUS clear of the D.C. Negation Zone. But when his choices become save the President or free his squad-mates from mind control, what’s he gonna choose? (Yeah, it’s extremely likely that he’ll choose to just get out of danger as soon as he possibly can. Can you blame him? Would you want to risk getting turned into Dissolving Dish Dan?).
Prepare for the (anti)climactic conclusion to the essential Negation tie-in!

Art by Paul Pelletier

Oberon Kaine was a man fighting a war that would never end, that he could never win. But now the war has ended. He won.
What place does a freedom fighter have when the fighting stops?
A story 20 years in the making finally comes to a close.
“The First Negation”
Written by Al Ewing
Plot by H-E-D
Art by Evan “Doc” Shaner
So, Negation’s finale didn’t have enough backstory for you, hmm?
Then you’re in luck, because here we present a tale from the dawn of time: the First Negation!
When our universe began, the last survivors of what came before were “upcycled” into the Proemial Entities. Galactus. Charon. Solusandra. Brio. Antiphon. Aegis. Tenebrous. Diableri. Phoenix. Others whose names and deeds are lost and forgotten.
All had their part to play in the game of Cosmic Consonance. Some, like Galactus, set about fulfilling their purposes with steadfast obedience to the dictates of Eternity.
But many, too many, grew dissatisfied. To have the power of gods but no agency of their own did not sit well with them.
Charon, intended steward of the Negative Zone, burned a swath through his realm, consuming worlds indescriminately, leaving the barren waste you can recognize the Negative Zone by today. Converting their life into the Force Opposite, his counterpart to the Power Cosmic, he created his army of seekers, his heralds, the Lawbringers.
Others, like Aegis and Tenebrous, followed suit. And so began the great Titanomachy of the Proemial Gods.
For most of these rogue entities, the Incubators that birthed them became their prisons. Collected upon the border of the Crunch, in time these prisons became known collectively as the Kyln.
But Charon was more difficult. He destroyed his own Incubator. It seemed as though he was destined to roam free, when Solusandra the Lifebringer sacrificed herself. To defeat Charon, she sealed herself in her own cradle, and took Charon with her.
In the chaos, the incubator, this Empyreal Prison, was lost in the wastes of the Negative Zone. And though Galactus did not realize it, the Lawbringers survived. They rallied around this Incubator, making the first of their eventual prison empire.
They could not release their god, no, but they would find a loophole. Even if it took eons.

Negative. Negation. Negated. It was all too much. Imbalanced. All and everything shifted toward the (-). It should be more… in between.
The In-Betweener is the embodiment of duality and balance (+/-). By his observation, the Negation Wave has tipped the scales too far… it is time to intervene!
And there is an army to back him up. Two armies, more accurately. The Regimented Forces of Order and the Confederate Horde of Chaos. These white and black clad fighting units have been cultivated separately by the In-Betweener for some time. When unleashed… which will prove more affective?

And who is the mysterious shadowy friend of the Vulture working on his release from prison?.

Written by KURT BUSIEK
Art by PEPE LARRAZ
Theme Song: Space Oddity (Cmdr Chris Hadfield cover)
“ABNEGATION”
•Claws able to slice through steel and soul. Psychic fire housed in a form whose mere touch is death. Unstoppable force coming from an unstoppable body. A storm goddess wielding the thunder and riding the lightning. Mutant magic is here, and it has turned four X-Men into the eschaton-level threat the enemies of mutantkind have always warned about. Luckily, that power was turned against the invading alien LAWBRINGERS, not humanity.
•Having dispatched YOLO, IIRC, and TLDR, a telepathic summons draws CYCLOPS, PHENEX, STORM, and WOLVERINE to the old Westchester School for Gifted Youngsters where the XAVIER-MAGNETO gestalt known as ONSLAUGHT has bested OMFG. The five know humanity will do its worst against them, that alien threats will always bombard Earth, and that there is only one alternative to ensure mutant survival.
•With the help of the demon-mutants, the X-Men combine their powers and magic with stolen Lawbringer knowledge and technology to teleport the island of Krakatoa 384,000 kilometers to float in the L5 Lagrange point beside Earth and the Moon. Krakatoa is no more. Introducing Asteroid X!
