Multiple universes will suffer the consequences of Wolverine’s actions in Age of Ultron! Earth’s Mightiest Heroes found a way to stop Ultron but Logan’s time jumps have ruptured the continuum! Angela has been pulled into the Marvel Universe. Galactus was transported into the Ultimate Universe – and he’s hungry!

HUNGER will be a four-part series kicking off in July in which the Ultimate Universe faces the threat of Galactus! Bendis explains how the events of AoU inspired ideas of how it could impact the Marvel multiverse:

 

“For a lot of Age of Ultron, it was me and Tom Brevoort planning alone. When we put it out to everybody at Marvel that we were doing this crazy time travel story, we told them we wanted there to be ramifications. We asked ‘What’s the craziest thing that could fall into the Marvel Universe?’ A lot of ideas were something dropping on the Ultimate Universe that would be insane. Then Joe Quesada called me out of the blue and told me we could have Angela. That was about the craziest thing I ever heard. Then Neil Gaiman wanting Continue reading Galactus Has Ultimate HUNGER

This is a huge week for fans of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes by Jonathan Hickman. Avengers is his big team book starring your favorites and exiting new additions to the roster like Shang-Chi, Cannonball, Sunspot plus brand new versions of Captain Universe, Smasher and Hyperion. The action of the new series started on Mars with the introduction of three new aliens who wanted to transform Earth – even if it killed everyone already living on it – and now the threat comes from a different universe – a New Universe!?!

You don’t need to know about Nightmask, Starbrand and Marvel’s short-lived line of comics from back in the day. Just know that Hickman has unleashed some thrilling Continue reading AVENGERS Worlds Collide!

Updated: Daredevil for Galactus & Silver Surfer?

  Update: Deadline is reporting that Fox denies is interested in a character rights swap.

Original story:

A street level vigilante in exchange for a massive alien and his cosmic herald? Daredevil for Galactus & Silver Surfer doesn’t sound like a fair trade if your role-playing but we’re talking film franchises here. Fox and Marvel are talking swap according to Variety.

  Fox’s rights to Daredevil are ticking away. The studio has until October 10th to reboot Matt Murdock on the big screen or the rights to back to Marvel. Variety also reports Fox is talking with Joe Carnahan about directing a Daredevil reboot based on the Frank Miller era. According to the story Marvel will extend the deadline if Fox gives up two characters from the Fantastic Four universe: Galactus and Silver Surfer. Fox is working on a Fantastic Four reboot with Josh Trank (Chronicle.)

  What could this mean? Marvel wants to use cosmic level threats like Galactus and Silver Surfer in their upcoming Guardians of the Galaxy film or Avengers sequel.

  Geek Question: What about Annilius? The Fantastic Four villain wasn’t used in previous FF films and plays a key role in the formation of the modern Guardians of the Galaxy? Time will tell.

  Op/Ed: I still dream of a Daredevil/Iron Fist/Luke Cage team up against the Hand on the big screen after three solo smashes. Kind of a Marvel Knights movie if you will.
