One of the things I'm most excited about regarding the upcoming SECRET WARS stuff is Jason Aaron and Mike Del Mundo's Weirdworld. Check out the solicits for the first two issues:
Issue #1:
Welcome to the wildest, most dangerous new corner of the Marvel Universe. Welcome to Weirdworld.
• A world of swords and sorcery and strange, perverted science. A world where one barbarian walks alone, on a dark and savage quest though all things weird and fantastic from throughout Marvel history.
• His name is Arkon. A lost man in a lost world. Follow him if you dare.
Issue #2:
Weirdworld is where the lost things go. Like the barbarian lord Arkon, who’s now prisoner of the underwater apes.
• Or like his cellmate, a mysterious one-eyed man who appears to be made out of rock and calls himself a Crystal Warrior…
If you're like me, and you love it when Marvel utilizes forgotten or abandoned concepts from the oddest corners of the MU, then this should be something to get excited about!
There's very little info out about this series, so what I most want to know is what/who you'd like to see show up in this! What crazy characters do you want to see Jason Aaron write about? What manic monsters do you want to see drawn by (the super-amazing) Mike del Mundo?
-Pav, who wonders if this is where we'll see Obnoxio the Clown...
