Tie-ins! TIE-INS for everyone! I mean, who really wanted a series that they were reading to go more than a single arc without an interruption?

[Frontier]

I guess Sam will be going back to being Falcon for this event, as part of the resistance? Or at least sporting something very close to his MCU Falcon costume.

Elizabeth Torque does a lot of (nice) covers .

[Tofali]

I'm really considering dropping Ultimates i don't read the other main Secret Empire tie-ins i'm just tired of Ewing tying every event in his books while postponing the story he has been trying to tell forever.

(I wish i was Logos right now - i'd cut this short real quick but then the Never Queen will show up with her warnings to not drop the book )

Tie-ins! TIE-INS for everyone! I mean, who really wanted a series that they were reading to go more than a single arc without an interruption?

Since Black Widow ended (yay, no Civil War II tie-in), my favorite Marvel series is currently Gamora which deals with Gamora's backstory so seems like no tie-in either, yay!

[UltimateTy]

I don't even mind events but tie ins annoy the heck out of me.

[Inversed]

Is that Rocket and Peter in the Mighty Captain Marvel issue? If so that sounds like the best way to get them involved in the event, since I can guarantee All-New Guardians isn't getting any tie-ins.

Also I wonder if we'll be getting any special Secret Empire mini-series like there were for Civil War II (the Amazing Spider-Man, X-Men, etc. ones)

[Moon Ronin]

Not really liking Sam's baggy SWAT look

[Digifiend]

Gamora too. Looks like a Guardians/Alpha Flight/Ultimates crossover.

[MindofShadow]

haha

story would move a lot faster if he just got rid of the human and told the galactus solo he wants to tell

[protege]

So, I'm getting an unpleasant sense of deja vu, especially with the look of Sam Wilson. Who are those people capfalc is hanging out with? Can you say "House of Cap?" and is that my boy Coulson Deadpool is hanging out with? And what does that mean for whose side Coulson may be on? Either way, Marvel REALLY wants me to like Deadpool, don't they?

[Tofali]

haha

Yes it would

[Kurolegacy]

Based on the Captain America: Steve Rodgers cover, I wonder if we'll be dealing with another House of M style event where Steve uses Kobik to warp the world into Hydra's image.
