The Shape Of The Marvel Universe – Past, Present And Future (SPOILERS)

The following posts contains what some may see as spoilers for Amazing Spider-Man, Avengers Standoff: Omega and Ultimates. Though Angela, Queen Of Hel, Ms Marvel and All-New Wolverine, you should be able to get away with.

But handle with care.

But Monsters on the rise? New U…. New Universe? Oh and one more person…
