Here’s a first look at Dustin Weaver’s art for Infinity #2 from Marvel. Writer Jonathan Hickman is joined by Jim Cheung, Weaver and Avengers World artist Jerome Opena on the epic clash between Earth’s Mightiest Heroes vs. Thanos and the mysterious Builders.

Infinity is the latest in long line of Marvel sci-fi space epics like the Kree-Skrull War, Operation Galactic Storm, The Infinity Gauntlet and more. Executive Editor Tom Brevoort tells Marvel.com how this new limited series compares to previous space sagas:
