5 Pages from April's A4: Empire with a Y #1 [Preview]

Along with their full April solicitations, Marvel has released a preview of the first issue of Empyre with a Y, the latest super-mega-crossover event that will shake the Marvel Universe to its foundations, leaving nothing ever the same again (until the next super-mega-crossover event, which will presumably happen a few months later). There's two issues of Empyre with a Y hitting stores in April (and a buttload of tie-ins), the first for six bucks and the second for five bucks.

But look, if you want premium comics like Empyre with a Y, you're going to have to pay premium prices, no matter what Bernie Sanders says. It's a slippery slope, really. First you allow socialism to gain a foothold, next comic book prices become reasonable, and before you know it comic book publishers can't even afford to misspell words with a Y where an I should be. Is that what you want?!

Didn't think so.

Check out the solicits and preview below.

A prophecy once said that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero would come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events. Sadly, that prophecy was wrong. Oh, Jude Terror was right. For ten years. About everything. But nobody listened. And so, Jude Terror has moved on to a more important mission: turning Bleeding Cool into a pro wrestling dirt sheet!
