september FANTASTIC FOUR VOL. 2: ROAD TRIP TPB The Fantastic Four’s road trip through time and space continues! On an alien world, the team encounters a thousand-year-old prophecy…is the Invisible Woman a longawaited intergalactic messiah? Then, the F4 sightsee in ancient Rome and dine with Caesar on the Ides of March. Did somebody say, “pass the knife”? And it’s a visit to both the beginning and the end of time, as Marvel’s first family witnesses the big bang and the big crunch! But to their surprise, they’re not alone! What happens beyond the end of infinite time and space? Plus: one day a year, The Thing reverts to his human form. This year…Ben Grimm is going to go home again — as Ben Grimm! And when Franklin and Val have a sibling rivalry, all bets are off! COLLECTING: Fantastic Four 4-8. Also includes exclusive AR video content! Writer Matt Fraction established his reputation as an emerging talent with his work on Last of the Independents, which earned an “A” grade from Entertainment Weekly. After contributing to the X-Men Unlimited anthology, Fraction launched Punisher War Journal with artist Ariel Olivetti and Immortal Iron Fist with co-writer Ed Brubaker and artist David Aja — both of which met with critical and fan acclaim. Next came Invincible Iron Man with artist Salvador Larroca, premiering the same month as the blockbuster film; and Uncanny X-Men, written in tandem with Brubaker. Also a talented filmmaker and graphic designer, Fraction remains one of Marvel’s most popular writers. His credits include a solo turn on Uncanny X-Men, the post-Siege epic Thor and its successor The Mighty Thor, the 2011 blockbuster Fear Itself, and the relaunched Defenders. In addition to his Marvel work, Fraction writes Casanova, illustrated by Gabriel Bá and Fábio Moon, and Five Fists of Science, pitting Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla against Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan. Hired on the strength of his Official Marvel Tryout penciling submission, Mark Bagley initially worked on such relatively obscure titles as Nightmask, Visionaries and Strikeforce: Morituri, but rose to prominence as the artist of 1990s sleeper hit New Warriors. Following an acclaimed run on Amazing Spider-Man, he worked with writer Kurt Busiek on Thunderbolts. When Marvel launched its Ultimate line, Bagley and Brian Michael Bendis led the way with Ultimate Spider-Man, whose years of success made the pair the longest-running creative team in Marvel history. Bendis and Bagley have also collaborated on Avengers Assemble and the creator-owned Brilliant.

“Bravo to Marvel, Matt Fraction and Mark Bagley… This series definitely feels like a grand adventure.” – ComicVine.com

COLLECTING: Deadpool 7-12. Also includes exclusive AR video content! Gerry Duggan received the education he needed to write from a steady diet of comic books and Late Night With David Letterman. He didn’t know that...so he wasted a ton of money on a pricey diploma from Emerson College in Boston. After graduating, he arrived in Los Angeles and hooked up almost immediately with Brian Posehn. Together, they’ve written Marvel NOW!’s Deadpool, The Simpsons and The Last Christmas, the true story of Santa Claus after the apocalypse. Brian Posehn was born a long time ago and fell in love with comic books at a very young age. He decided to wait to write them until he was in his forties. Before embarking on a career in comic-book writing, he floated through a series of odd jobs — including standup comedy, TV writing, and film and sitcom acting. Since arriving at Marvel, he feels he’s found his true calling, but will continue to do “the other crap” “for fun.” Posehn’s collaborations with Gerry Duggan include The Last Christmas, a Jaws parody for The Simpsons’ Treehouse of Horror comics, some screenplays and TV ideas you’ll never see, and a baby they’re raising together in the basement of a local abandoned sanitarium. Throughout the 1990s, Scott Koblish inked his way across the Marvel Multiverse with runs on Captain America, Elektra, G.I. Joe, Marc Spector: Moon Knight, Marvel Comics Presents, Punisher War Journal, and multiple titles in the X-Men and 2099 subgenres. He later inked his own pencils on Uncanny X-Men: First Class and Wolverine: First Class, then moved to the Marvel Adventures line, providing art for issues of that imprint’s versions of Avengers, Fantastic Four, Iron Man and other titles. He also inked several miniseries set in Tom DeFalco’s MC2 universe.

When a young writer named Chris Claremont took over X-Men in 1976, few fans could predict the incredible impact he would have on the series. With a flair for realistic dialogue, heartfelt storylines and hard-hitting action, Claremont’s writing breathed life into the characters. In collaboration with artists Dave Cockrum and John Byrne, Claremont crafted a run still heralded as a definitive era on the book. UNCANNY X-MEN became more than just another super-hero title: This diverse cast of mutants fighting against prejudice and intolerance has resonated in the hearts of millions of devoted readers.

september SPIDER-MAN: DYING WISH TPB Dr. Octopus was given a year to live, his body in terminal decline after a lifetime of brutal battles against SpiderMan. So the brilliant madman used that time as you might expect. First, he mobilized an army of Octobots to take over Manhattan. Then, he assembled six sinister villains to abduct Norman Osborn’s child. Finally, he pursued Spider-Man to the ends of the Earth while threatening to burn the planet to a cinder. Each time, his ambitious plans ended in failure…or did they? Were his defeats further proof of his madness — or his genius? With Dr. Octopus hours from death, Spider-Man is about to learn the answer, as one of his oldest enemies turns the tables on him with a dying wish that spells doom for Peter Parker and everyone he loves!

Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers. Following a run on She-Hulk — which combined his sly humor and encyclopedic Marvel knowledge with an imaginative take on a comic-book law firm — Slott moved into the upper echelon of Marvel writers, launching Avengers: The Initiative and taking the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis. When Marvel gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several rotating writers on a thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Through three years and a hundred issues, Slott became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger’s “Brand New Day” era. Amazing hit the “Big Time” when Slott took over as full-time writer, chronicling a new chapter in the life of Peter Parker with artists such as Humberto Ramos, Stefano Caselli and Marcos Martin.

“…this was even better than I expected…lots of fun…Bravo.”

Mexican artist Humberto Ramos made his American comics debut in 1994 with DC’s Impulse, featuring the Flash’s brash grandson. In 1998, Ramos launched the creator-owned Crimson under Wildstorm’s Cliffhanger imprint, illustrating the title for more than two years. He then moved to Marvel, becoming one of the most recognizable and innovative talents in comics. Seamlessly blending both Eastern and Western styles, the artist’s artist has worked on many of Marvel’s most iconic characters — including Spider-Man, Wolverine and the X-Men — in addition to a run on the fan-favorite Runaways.

Find out when superstars Paul Cornell (CAPTAIN BRITAIN AND MI:13, Doctor Who, Action Comics) and Alan Davis (AVENGERS, CLANDESTINE, EXCALIBUR, UNCANNY X-MEN) take on the Wolverine!

In addition to his work in comics, Paul Cornell is a novelist and a TV writer. He has written Doctor Who for both mediums, famously creating the character Bernice Summerfield, and has since worked extensively in British television on such diverse programs as Robin Hood, Primeval and Casualty. His comics resume includes work on the Marvel titles Wisdom, Captain Britain and MI13, Dark Reign: Young Avengers and Fantastic Four: True Story. British-born artist Alan Davis took off like a rocket after his humble beginnings at Marvel U.K. Continuing the collaboration with Alan Moore that saw Captain Britain become an enduring critical and fan favorite, the two co-created D.R. and Quinch. Davis broke into U.S. comics with runs on Batman and the Outsiders and Detective Comics. Hired by Marvel U.S. in 1986, Davis launched Excalibur with Chris Claremont, and the book quickly became one of Marvel mutantdom’s most unique and humorous titles. When Davis took over as writer, he continued many plot threads from his Captain Britain run. Davis also created the super-hero family ClanDestine, and wrote and drew the DC miniseries JLA: The Nail. After a lengthy arc writing and drawing X-Men, Davis went on to work on the miniseries Killraven, Fantastic Four: The End and a ClanDestine revival. He has also illustrated writer Brian Michael Bendis’ Avengers Prime and contributed to the status-quo-changing X-Men: Schism.

INHUMANS BY PAUL JENKINS & JAE LEE HC

The Inhumans are one of Marvel’s most enduring oddities. A race of genetic freaks living secluded in their island kingdom of Attilan, their mutations are self-endowed; as a coming of age ritual, each Inhuman exposes themself to the Terrigen Mists, a strange substance that imparts unearthly powers…some extraordinary, some monstrous. But now Attilan is under attack from without and within. Can the Royal Family, led by the mute Black Bolt, repel the foreign invaders who assail their outer defense, as well as the internal threat of Black Bolt’s insane brother, Maximus the Mad? Paul Jenkins and Jae Lee infuse one of Marvel’s oldest families with a modern sensibility, including international politics, class struggles and the age-old struggle of growing up. Dark and grimly compelling, it remains one of Marvel Knights’ most beloved stories. COLLECTING: Inhumans (1998) 1-12

At DC, under the pseudonym “Steve Apollo,” he co-wrote Superboy and the Legion of Super-Heroes, including the series’ pivotal 250th issue; he later wrote Batman, including the controversial “Death in the Family” storyline, and the Batman: The Cult miniseries, and collaborated with Mike Mignola on Cosmic Odyssey, exploring themes similar to those he introduced at Marvel. Returning to Marvel to write Silver Surfer, he resurrected Adam Warlock and Thanos, both of whom figured prominently in a veritable franchise of miniseries he both wrote and penciled: Infinity Gauntlet, Infinity War, Infinity Crusade, Infinity Abyss and more, plus the Adam Warlock and the Infinity Watch monthly. Less typical work included Daredevil/Black Widow: Abbatoir and the Punisher: POV miniseries.

Robin Furth is perhaps the only person who knows more about the Dark Tower mythos than Stephen King himself. As author of the twovolume The Dark Tower: A Concordance, Furth is in a unique position to help adapt King’s work into a Marvel Comics series. She has also written comics of her own, including a tale of Wolverine in Rampaging Wolverine and a story of the Fantastic Four’s children in Girl Comics. Peter David is one of the industry’s most prolific and versatile writers, whose record-breaking stint on Incredible Hulk remains a fan favorite to this day. His critically acclaimed association with X-Factor, first in the early 1990s, and then from 2005 onwards, may one day even surpass it for longevity. His other comics work includes Justice, Spider-Man 2099 and Captain Marvel for Marvel; Aquaman, Supergirl and Young Justice for DC; Dreadstar for First Comics; Spy Boy for Dark Horse; and the creator-owned Soulsearchers and Company and Fallen Angel. David is also a novelist and screenwriter. Among his credits are more than 70 books — including some 40 Star Trek tie-ins; original novels such as Sir Apropos of Nothing, Howling Mad and Knight Life; movies Trancers 4 and Trancers 5; and episodes of Babylon 5 and Crusade. He also co-created the TV show Space Cases with actor-writer Bill Mumy.

Springing from the fertile ground of the U.K. comics scene, Warren Ellis came to Marvel during the early ’90s and proved his iconoclastic mettle in the ultra-edgy series Hellstorm and the miniseries Druid — followed by fondly remembered, extended runs on Excalibur and Doom 2099. After making a name for himself as a premier talent with Wildstorm’s Stormwatch, Transmetropolitan, The Authority and Planetary, Ellis returned to Marvel to pen such titles as Ultimate Fantastic Four, the Ultimate Galactus Trilogy and Iron Man. His Nextwave: Agents of H.A.T.E. was both a critical smash and cult favorite. In addition to reviving the 1980s New Universe in newuniversal and writing Thunderbolts, Ellis took over Astonishing X-Men following Joss Whedon and John Cassaday’s departure, and penned perhaps the definitive story of the Armored Avenger in Iron Man’s “Extremis.”

Artist Mike McKone was pegged as a future industry superstar when his first work was published in DC’s JLA and Legion. In 2001, McKone collaborated with writer Judd Winick to launch Marvel’s Exiles, a surprise hit among X-fans. Two years later, he teamed with writer Geoff Johns to revamp Teen Titans for DC. Since signing an exclusive contract with Marvel, McKone’s credits include Fantastic Four, Amazing Spider-Man and Avengers Academy.

Writer Jason Aaron’s early collaboration with artist Cameron Stewart on DC/Vertigo’s The Other Side was named one of The Washington Post’s “Best Comics of 2007.” His next project, Scalped, garnered industry-wide praise and led to a guest spot on Wolverine. After signing with Marvel Comics, Aaron completed another run on Wolverine, as well as stints on Black Panther and Ghost Rider, before moving on to launch Wolverine Weapon X and relaunch Wolverine. He brought Frank Castle’s tortured tale to a devastating end in the pages of PunisherMAX and, in the wake of his status-quo-shattering miniseries X-Men: Schism, helped usher in a new era for Marvel’s mutants in the pages of Wolverine and the X-Men. Italian artist Simone Bianchi spent 11 years making a name for himself in Europe, including writing and drawing his own sciencefiction epic Ego Sum. He won Europe’s prestigious Yellow Kid Award as the year’s best Italian artist and writer. America first got a taste of his work in DC Comics’ Seven Soldiers: Shining Knight. Bianchi has brought his ferocious talent to blockbuster runs on Wolverine with writer Jeph Loeb and Astonishing X-Men with Warren Ellis, as well as the epic limited series Thor: For Asgard.

All that stands in the way of its enigmatic inner agenda is Nick Fury himself…but Fury falls from grace when S.H.I.E.L.D.’s ruling council, commanded by the mysterious Deltite, frames him for treason and sends him running for his life.

Graduating to editor in chief, he oversaw wellreceived runs of Captain America, Daredevil, Deadpool and other titles, as well as the controversial second Clone Saga in the 1990s’ Spider-Man titles. Harras has since worked as contributing editor at Wildstorm and collected editions editor for DC Comics. He became DC’s editor in chief in 2010.

With thennewcomer Alan Davis, he migrated to more mainstream titles, inking Davis’ pencils on Uncanny X-Men and Captain Britain, as well as on DC’s Detective Comics. Returning to Marvel UK as editor in chief, Neary launched Death’s Head II, Motormouth, Warheads and other 1990s titles. He has since returned to art, inking Bryan Hitch’s pencils on Wildstorm’s Authority; and Marvel’s Fantastic Four, Ultimates and more.

OCTOBER WHAT IF? AVX TPB The biggest event of 2012 is now the biggest miniseries of 2013! We all know what happened to the Avengers and the X-Men… but what if the story had gone differently? The one and only Jimmy Palmiotti brings his signature style to a mind-blowing reinterpretation of a key event in the history of the Marvel Universe. Featuring Magneto, Hope, and every Avenger and X-Man you can imagine! COLLECTING: What If? AVX 1-4

Jimmy Palmiotti began his career as a classically trained illustrator at New York’s prestigious High School of Art and Design. With the help of fellow artist Mark Texeira, Palmiotti’s talent earned him his first professional work as a comic-book inker. In collaboration with fellow artist Joe Quesada, Palmiotti lent his skills to such projects as Batman: Sword of Azrael, The Ray and Ninjak. Palmiotti quickly earned a reputation as not only a talented inker, but a phenomenally fast one — often contributing work to as many as seven titles in a single month. In 1995, Palmiotti and Quesada founded Event Comics, a collaboration that produced the memorable titles Ash and Painkiller Jane, as well as an offer from Marvel Comics to revamp several classic heroes under the Marvel Knights banner. With writer Kevin Smith and Quesada, Palmiotti’s work on Daredevil became a monumental success, surpassing even the X-Men in fan popularity. Palmiotti also began to take on writing chores in tandem with Justin Gray; his credits include The Monolith, 21 Down, Deadpool, Hawkgirl, Superboy, Uncle Sam & the Freedom Fighters, Jonah Hex, Heroes for Hire and Power Girl. He continues to juggle the demands of both inking and writing. Jorge Molina’s Marvel credits include Captain America: Man Out of Time with Mark Waid, X-Men with Victor Gischler, Models, Inc., What If? Secret Wars, the Siege crossover issues of Avengers: The Initiative and World War Hulks: Spider-Man & Thor. In addition, he has illustrated covers for Ultimate Spider-Man and New Mutants.

Be there as the Halo saga unfolds — with all-new stories set in the world of Bungee’s blockbuster Halo video game series! COLLECTING: Halo: Uprising 1-4, Blood Line 1-5, Helljumper 1-5 Peter David is one of the industry’s most prolific and versatile writers, whose record-breaking stint on Incredible Hulk remains a fan favorite to this day. His critically acclaimed association with X-Factor, first in the early 1990s, and then from 2005 onwards, may one day even surpass it for longevity. His other comics work includes Justice, Spider-Man 2099 and Captain Marvel for Marvel; Aquaman, Supergirl and Young Justice for DC; Dreadstar for First Comics; Spy Boy for Dark Horse; and the creator-owned Soulsearchers and Company and Fallen Angel. David is also a novelist and screenwriter. Among his credits are more than 70 books — including some 40 Star Trek tie-ins; original novels such as Sir Apropos of Nothing, Howling Mad and Knight Life; movies Trancers 4 and Trancers 5; and episodes of Babylon 5 and Crusade. Fred Van Lente has been a comics fan as long as he can remember, initially hooked by his father’s copy of Jules Feiffer’s landmark anthology The Great Comic Book Heroes. Van Lente joined Syracuse University’s comic-book club and met artist Steve Ellis, with whom he created indie super-crime comic The Silencers. That work got noticed by Marvel, where Van Lente was soon hired and introduced a heroic new Scorpion in Amazing Fantasy. Since then, the versatile Van Lente’s many Marvel assignments have included three New York Times-best-selling entries in the Marvel Zombies series, as well as Amazing Spider-Man, Incredible Hercules, X-Men Noir, Iron Man Legacy, Chaos War, Herc and Alpha Flight.

OCTOBER DARK TOWER: THE GUNSLINGER - THE MAN IN BLACK TPB Roland Deschain, the Last Gunslinger, closes at last on his elusive nemesis, the Man in Black. At Roland’s side is his newest tet-mate, Jake Chambers — a boy from some strange other Earth of subways, turnpikes and fluorescent lights. But to reach the Man in Black — and save the Dark Tower — Roland is prepared to risk all. His life. His very soul. Even Jake. Follow this mismatched pair of travelers on the final leg of a treacherous journey, to the destiny Roland has pursued for twelve long years — and the fate young Jake is all too aware awaits him. Master author Stephen King’s magnum opus hits the comic pages in an atmospheric vision of Mid-World that draws inspiration from the final two stories of King’s The Gunslinger. COLLECTING: Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - The Man In Black 1-5 Robin Furth is perhaps the only person who knows more about the Dark Tower mythos than Stephen King himself.

She has also written comics of her own, including a tale of Wolverine in Rampaging Wolverine and a story of the Fantastic Four’s children in Girl Comics. Peter David is one of the industry’s most prolific and versatile writers, whose record-breaking stint on Incredible Hulk remains a fan favorite to this day.

november SPIDER-MAN/WOLVERINE BY ZEB WELLS & JOE MADUREIRA HC Fan-favorite Spider-Man writer Zeb Wells and legendary X-Men artist Joe Madureira unite to take on two of Marvel’s most popular characters in the hottest stories of the season! First, Spider-Man teams with the Red Hulk to face down a Moloid army during the New York Marathon! The two unlikely allies end up leading an underground legion — but when Red Hulk falls, only Spider-Man stands in the way of the Subterranean invasion of Manhattan! Then, Wells and Madureira turn their attention to the X-Men’s most popular mutant: the savage Wolverine! But what unlikely foe is lurking in the shadows, and does even Wolverine have the berserker strength to win the day? COLLECTING: Avenging Spider-Man 1-3, Savage Wolverine 6-8

A writer for the Emmy Award-winning animated series Robot Chicken, Zeb Wells began making a name for himself at Marvel with his irreverent New Warriors limited series, which provided an inspiration for key story threads that would later appear in Civil War; he also wrote the Civil War: Young Avengers/Runaways tie-in. His collaboration with the late Seth Fisher on Fantastic Four/Iron Man: Big in Japan produced one of the last decade’s most charming comics. Wells’ other credits include Daredevil: Battlin’ Jack Murdock, Venom: Dark Origin, Dark Reign: Elektra and Spider-Man/Doctor Octopus: Year One. He also contributed to the thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man and helped relaunch New Mutants. After his scintillating debut on Uncanny X-Men while barely out of his teens, Joe Madureira immediately joined the ranks of fan-favorite artists like Jim Lee and Marc Silvestri. His innovative character designs and explosive layouts attracted a huge following during the ’90s, and his popularity reached a fever pitch after his work on the Age of Apocalypse and Onslaught events helped transform the Marvel Universe. After developing the creator-owned Battle Chasers for Wildstorm, Madureira left comics for the video game industry. He made a triumphant return to Marvel with Jeph Loeb’s Ultimates 3.

november X-MEN VOL. 1: PRIMER TPB The X-Women finally get their own book, from critically acclaimed superstars Brian Wood (X-MEN, ULTIMATE X-MEN, DMZ, The Massive) and Olivier Coipel (AVX, HOUSE OF M, THOR)! An old enemy shows up at the X-Men’s door, seeking asylum from an ancient evil come back to earth. Meanwhile, Jubilee has come home, and she’s brought with her an orphaned baby who might hold the key to the earth’s survival…or its destruction. Against a backdrop of what seems like an alien invasion and an eons-spanning war between brother and sister, Storm steps up and puts together a team to protect the child and stop a new threat that could destroy all life on earth!

Multiple Eisner Award-nominee Brian Wood released his first series, Channel Zero, to considerable critical acclaim in 1997. He is best known for original series such as DMZ, Northlanders, Demo and Local. In 2011, Wood kicked off the second major phase of his career with the original series The Massive and Anthem, Conan for Dark Horse Comics, and Wolverine and the X-Men: Alpha & Omega for Marvel. Talented French artist Olivier Coipel is one of Marvel’s top stars, having caught the eyes of Avengers fans with his work in a series of startlingly fresh and exciting stories in 2004. However, his modest entrance into the comic-art scene couldn’t have prepared anyone for what came next: a star turn on the 2005 blockbuster limited series House of M. Proving his mettle with the grand splendor and huge cast of a Marvel epic, he earned the plum assignment of restoring the hallowed halls of Asgard to grandeur in J. Michael Straczynski’s Thor. Again called on to illustrate a Marvel mega-event, Coipel reunited with House of M writer Brian Michael Bendis on Siege. He then returned to the world of Marvel’s Thunder God, launching The Mighty Thor with writer Matt Fraction.

A professional cartoonist and writer, Eric Shanower studied at the esteemed Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art before launching a career in comics. Having already lettered issues of Warp and Starslayer for First Comics and issues of The Barren Earth for DC, Shanower made his comics-art debut penciling, inking and lettering a 16-page story called “Found and Lost” in DC’s New Talent Showcase #13. But satisfying a lifelong love for L. Frank Baum’s magical world of Oz, Shanower began a series of Oz graphic novels that were published by First Comics and Dark Horse. The Enchanted Apples of Oz, The Ice King of Oz, The Blue Witch of Oz and others were released during a period of seven years and established Shanower as one of comics’ most unique talents. This reputation was further enhanced when Image Comics began publishing Age of Bronze, his bold retelling of the Trojan War that, in addition to the original mythologies recounted by Homer, relies heavily on details from the historical record. With Age of Bronze, Shanower took his place as one of graphic storytelling’s most serious creators.

december CAPTAIN AMERICA VOL. 2: CASTAWAY IN DIMENSION Z BOOK 2 PREMIERE HC The odd saga of Dimension Z continues, with the shocking fate of Captain America revealed: Steve Rogers is dead…long live Captain Zola! But even as Arnim Zola gets everything he wants, a traitor strikes. Ian’s fate is decided as Zola’s master plan is revealed…but how does it all fit with Captain Zola’s quest for lies, injustice, and the Dimension Z way? Rick Remender and John Romita Jr. continue to put the starspangled Avenger through his paces as Cap’s Marvel NOW! reinvention rolls on!

Beginning his career in animation working on such films as The Iron Giant, Anastasia and Titan A.E., Rick Remender has become a comic-book triple threat — writing, penciling and inking numerous fan-favorite series. Remender served as writer on hit video games Dead Space and Bulletstorm, while providing art for punk/metal bands like NOFX and 3 Inches of Blood. He’s co-created many popular independent titles, including the critically acclaimed Fear Agent with longtime collaborators Tony Moore and Jerome Opeña. His time at Marvel started on Punisher and has since led to well-received runs on Uncanny X-Force and Venom. John Romita Jr. is a modern-day comic-art master, following in his legendary father’s footsteps. Timeless runs on Iron Man, Uncanny X-Men, Amazing Spider-Man and Daredevil established him as his own man artistically, and his work on Wolverine and World War Hulk is arguably the most explosive comic art of the last decade. In addition to Eternals with writer Neil Gaiman, JRJR teamed with Mark Millar on the creator-owned Kick-Ass, later developed into a blockbuster feature film starring Nicolas Cage. Spider-Man fans rejoiced at the artist’s return to Amazing Spider-Man with the “Brand New Day” storylines “New Ways To Die” and “Character Assassination.” He later helped relaunch Avengers with writer Brian Michael Bendis and Captain America with Rick Remender, and contributed to the blockbuster crossover Avengers vs. X-Men.

As the manipulative alien power’s ulterior motive is laid bare, an even more massive surprise awaits at a deserted battlefield from the beginning of time!

An award-winning critic and journalist, Kieron Gillen has written for organizations such as PC Gamer, The Guardian, Rock Paper Shotgun and Wired before turning his attention to comics. His previous writing credits include the critically lauded Phonogram, Thor, S.W.O.R.D. and Generation Hope. He has relaunched two longstanding Marvel series in Uncanny X-Men and Journey into Mystery. Dale Eaglesham started out penciling series peripheral to the mainstream Marvel Universe: Guardians of the Galaxy, Savage Sword of Conan, What If? and others. When he moved to DC, his artwork appeared in Justice Society of America and spinoff miniseries Thy Kingdom Come, and multiple Batman titles — including Detective Comics, Gotham Knights, Legends of the Dark Knight and Shadow of the Bat. He returned to Marvel to illustrate Jonathan Hickman’s Fantastic Four, Captain America in the Steve Rogers: Super-Soldier miniseries, and the complete run of the relaunched Alpha Flight. Elsewhere, he has penciled Eternal Warrior at Acclaim, Sigil at Crossgen and the Creep feature in Dark Horse Presents.

COLLECTING: Iron Man 12-17. Also includes exclusive AR video content!

Artist Greg Land first gained notice with his work on DC’s Batman-family titles Nightwing and Birds of Prey. Moving to Marvel after illustrating CrossGen’s Sojourn, he drew Phoenix: Endsong. Next up was a run on Ultimate Fantastic Four that included the first rendering of the Marvel Zombies. Subsequently, Land penciled the blockbuster limited series Ultimate Power before becoming a regular artist on Uncanny X-Men.

Before they answer that, however, they have to deal with the Council of Dooms who treat the day of the Incident as a kind of nativity — and dozens of Dooms from dozens of realities have come to witness the birth of the Alpha Doom…oh boy that dorm room is gonna get crowded fast. COLLECTING: FF 9-13. Also includes exclusive AR video content!

Writer Matt Fraction established his reputation as an emerging talent with his work on Last of the Independents, which earned an “A” grade from Entertainment Weekly. After contributing to the X-Men Unlimited anthology, Fraction launched Punisher War Journal with artist Ariel Olivetti and Immortal Iron Fist with co-writer Ed Brubaker and artist David Aja — both of which met with critical and fan acclaim. Next came Invincible Iron Man with artist Salvador Larroca, premiering the same month as the blockbuster film; and Uncanny XMen, written in tandem with Brubaker. Also a talented filmmaker and graphic designer, Fraction remains one of Marvel’s most popular writers. His credits include a solo turn on Uncanny X-Men, the post-Siege epic Thor and its successor The Mighty Thor, the 2011 blockbuster Fear Itself, and the relaunched Defenders. In addition to his Marvel work, Fraction writes Casanova, illustrated by Gabriel Bá and Fábio Moon, and Five Fists of Science, pitting Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla against Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan. Hired on the strength of his Official Marvel Tryout penciling submission, Mark Bagley initially worked on such relatively obscure titles as Nightmask, Visionaries and Strikeforce: Morituri, but rose to prominence as the artist of 1990s sleeper hit New Warriors. Following an acclaimed run on Amazing Spider-Man, he worked with writer Kurt Busiek on Thunderbolts. When Marvel launched its Ultimate line, Bagley and Brian Michael Bendis led the way with Ultimate SpiderMan, whose years of success made the pair the longest-running creative team in Marvel history. Bendis and Bagley have also collaborated on Avengers Assemble and the creator-owned Brilliant.

Also includes exclusive AR video content! Dan Slott has built a loyal fan base by combining old-school fun with stories and characterizations friendly to new readers. Following a run on She-Hulk — which combined his sly humor and encyclopedic Marvel knowledge with an imaginative take on a comic-book law firm — Slott moved into the upper echelon of Marvel writers, launching Avengers: The Initiative and taking the reins on Mighty Avengers from Brian Michael Bendis. When Marvel gave Spider-Man a fresh start in 2008, Slott was one of several rotating writers on a thrice-monthly Amazing Spider-Man. Through three years and a hundred issues, Slott became the writer most closely identified with the web-slinger’s “Brand New Day” era. Amazing hit the “Big Time” when Slott took over as full-time writer, chronicling a new chapter in the life of Peter Parker with artists such as Humberto Ramos, Stefano Caselli and Marcos Martin.

Italian artist Giuseppe Camuncoli made his Marvel Comics debut in 2002 on Spider-Man’s Tangled Web. His subsequent Marvel credits include a pair of Ms. Marvel specials; forays into the worlds of Annihilation and Immortal Iron Fist; and the miniseries X-Infernus, which reestablished Illyana Rasputin as a central character in the X-Universe. He later helped launch Wolverine’s son into his own title with Daken: Dark Wolverine and teamed with writer Dan Slott on Amazing Spider-Man. His other work includes DC’s Detective Comics, Jonah Hex, Hellblazer, The Intimates, Robin and Swamp Thing.

COLLECTING: Hawkeye 1-11, Young Avengers Presents 6 Writer Matt Fraction established his reputation as an emerging talent with his work on Last of the Independents, which earned an “A” grade from Entertainment Weekly. After contributing to the X-Men Unlimited anthology, Fraction launched Punisher War Journal with artist Ariel Olivetti and Immortal Iron Fist with co-writer Ed Brubaker and artist David Aja — both of which met with critical and fan acclaim. Next came Invincible Iron Man with artist Salvador Larroca, premiering the same month as the blockbuster film; and Uncanny XMen, written in tandem with Brubaker. Also a talented filmmaker and graphic designer, Fraction remains one of Marvel’s most popular writers. His credits include a solo turn on Uncanny X-Men, the post-Siege epic Thor and its successor The Mighty Thor, the 2011 blockbuster Fear Itself, and the relaunched Defenders. In addition to his Marvel work, Fraction writes Casanova, illustrated by Gabriel Bá and Fábio Moon, and Five Fists of Science, pitting Mark Twain and Nikola Tesla against Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan. Spanish artist David Aja earned his fine-arts degree at the University of Salamanca in 2000, becoming a professional illustrator for newspaper, magazine, publicity and multimedia clients worldwide. His comic-book credits include Marvel’s X-Men Unlimited, Civil War: Front Line and Choosing Sides, Daredevil, Giant-Size Wolverine, Wolverine: Debt of Death, and a long run with writers Ed Brubaker and Matt Fraction on Immortal Iron Fist.

december DEADPOOL VOL. 3: THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY TPB Deadpool hits the streets with Power Man & Iron Fist! COLLECTING: Deadpool 13-18. Also includes exclusive AR video content! Gerry Duggan received the education he needed to write from a steady diet of comic books and Late Night With David Letterman. He didn’t know that...so he wasted a ton of money on a pricey diploma from Emerson College in Boston. After graduating, he arrived in Los Angeles and hooked up almost immediately with Brian Posehn. Together, they’ve written Marvel NOW!’s Deadpool, The Simpsons and The Last Christmas, the true story of Santa Claus after the apocalypse. Both he and artist Phil Noto earned Eisner Award nominations for The Infinite Horizon, a re-imagininging of The Odyssey in a dystopian future. Brian Posehn was born a long time ago and fell in love with comic books at a very young age. He decided to wait to write them until he was in his forties. Before embarking on a career in comic-book writing, he floated through a series of odd jobs — including standup comedy, TV writing, and film and sitcom acting. Since arriving at Marvel, he feels he’s found his true calling, but will continue to do “the other crap” “for fun.” Posehn’s collaborations with Gerry Duggan include The Last Christmas, a Jaws parody for The Simpsons’ Treehouse of Horror comics, some screenplays and TV ideas you’ll never see, and a baby they’re raising together in the basement of a local abandoned sanitarium. Throughout the 1990s, Scott Koblish inked his way across the Marvel Multiverse with runs on Captain America, Elektra, G.I. Joe, Marc Spector: Moon Knight, Marvel Comics Presents, Punisher War Journal, and multiple titles in the X-Men and 2099 subgenres. He later inked his own pencils on Uncanny X-Men: First Class and Wolverine: First Class, then moved to the Marvel Adventures line, providing art for issues of that imprint’s versions of Avengers, Fantastic Four, Iron Man and other titles. He also inked several miniseries set in Tom DeFalco’s MC2 universe. Elsewhere, he inked DC miniseries Final Crisis: Legion of Three Worlds and OMAC, and both penciled and inked Fred Van Lente’s Weapon miniseries for Platinum Studios and Michael Stewart’s “Jet Pack Pets” feature in Disney Adventure Comic Zone.
