SCARLET WITCH Replaces DOCTOR STRANGE

The redemption of Scarlet Witch leads to revenge?

Will Wanda go to the dark side and doom Doom in the epic story that turns the Marvel Universe on its head?

When it comes to supreme power, Wanda’s history gives even the most devoted Scarlet Witch fan shivers.

In Avengers: Disassembled, Wanda killed several of her teammates.

In House of M, Wanda messed with the minds of everyone on Earth to create a world ruled by Magneto.

With Decimation, Wanda declared, “No More Mutants,” and set the mutant race on the fast track to extinction. Continue reading SCARLET WITCH Replaces DOCTOR STRANGE

X-MEN EXODUS?

Are the X-Men about to have an exodus?

Are the Jean Grey School and Xavier School closing their doors?

In the just announced November previews, Avengers & X-Men: AXIS #4 see the X-Men “join their greatest foe” and in #5 “claim a new home.”

This is the latest clue that could be pointing to the mutants starting over in a new base.

AXIS is the inversion of many Marvel heroes so the tease above could mean the mutants are siding with Apocalypse or aligning with Magneto and finding a new home among old enemies. Continue reading X-MEN EXODUS?

VILLAINS Turned AVENGERS

Marvel will turn its heroes and villains upside down in AXIS. Avengers and X-Men will unite against the threat of the Red Skull. In a preview for Act Two: Inversion, classic villains fight for redemption and some heroes appear to have gone to the dark side.

Characters playing the role of hero, villain and every shade in between make for compelling stories that make us cheer, swoon and declare, “Nooooooo!”

Inspired by Rick Remender’s “recalibration of the moral compass” of our favorite icons in the upcoming event here are mighty Marvel heroes who went from villain to hero.

Let’s start with the Avengers: Continue reading VILLAINS Turned AVENGERS

RICK REMENDER On MARVEL AXIS INVERSION

Marvel’s main event for 2014 is a showdown between Avengers and X-Men vs. the Red Onslaught in AXIS. Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and the Children of the Atom must be ready to rumble with a reborn Red Skull armed with the powers of Professor X’s brain.

MAGNETO Back to Super Villain For MARVEL AXIS?

Magneto is a hero and freedom fighter to some, a villain and killer to others.

Erik formed an uneasy alliance with the X-Men on Utopia but severed his ties with Cyclops earlier this year.

Marvel already teased Magneto taking on the Red Skull in Avengers and X-Men: AXIS. Now Marvel revealed this new image from Magneto #11 by David Yardin shows the Master of Magnetism leading a union of super villains and rogues.

What would make Magneto unite with Doctor Doom, Loki, Enchantress, Deadpool, Carnage, Hobgoblin, Sabretooth and Mystique, especially what she did to Dazzler in Uncanny X-Men? Continue reading MAGNETO Back to Super Villain For MARVEL AXIS?

NEW THOR & CAPTAIN AMERICA! WHO’S NEXT?

A new Thor.
A new Captain America.
Who’s next?

Marvel is announcing major changes for two iconic heroes:

Steve Rogers recently lost the Super Soldier Serum and now has the body of a man in his 90’s. Who will become the next Sentinel of Liberty?

The Odinson will apparently become Unworthy and a woman will wield the hammer and go by the name Thor in a new series in October.

Is history repeating itself? Continue reading NEW THOR & CAPTAIN AMERICA! WHO’S NEXT?

MARVEL Reveals AXIS: REVOLUTIONS

Avengers and X-Men battle the Red Onslaught (the Red Skull armed with the powers of Professor X) in the event series AXIS by Rick Remender.

But this series will not be big enough to show the impact of the war against the Red Skull.

Marvel revealed AXIS: Revolutions, a four-part series by various creators showing more of the action. The first issue will be from writer Dennis Hopeless (Avengers Undercover) and artist Ken Lashley. Continue reading MARVEL Reveals AXIS: REVOLUTIONS
