All's
not well in the MARVEL Universe in the year 1602 as strange storms are
brewing and strange new powers are emerging! Neil Gaiman, Andy Kubert
& Richard Isanove bring to life a rich new vision of the MARVEL
Universe that Gaimanpromises is NOT a 'What If" story. But how do
Spider- Man, the X-Men, Nick Fury, Dr. Strange, Daredevil, Dr. Doom,
Black Widow, Captain America & more MARVELstars appear in the year
1602!?!Once again you will be
enthralled by magnificence of this story. Gaiman has weaved a tapestry
that unfolds a new mystery & wonder each time you look at it. The
way threads to characters origins have been intricately placed along
the way really makes you smile. I can’t wait to find out the importance
of Vaginia Dare!?! What is driving the inquisitor and what the
treasure/weapon is!?! If only issue #3 was out tomorrow :(
The writing of the story fits the art like a glove! That’s how well
these two go hand in hand. Kubert & Isanove have created a
landscape that talks to you! You don’t just see the emotions you FEEL
them. You get sucked into the settings and can smell the air, feel the
breeze. It’s a beautiful thing when art can reflect a story so well.
And trust me, when you turn the page you’re looking at a beautiful
thing!
