Based on the hit Bruce Springsteen song off his 1984 album Born in the U.S.A. — we assume — Avengers: No Surrender is co-written by Mark Waid, Al Ewing, and Jim Zub, and features a rotating art team of Pepe Larraz, Kim Jacinto, and Paco "Funky Cold" Medina. "In month two of NO SURRENDER, the rubber hits the road[...]

The Earth has been moved, and the planet is suffering for it. The Avengers are uniting to meet this threat, but will it be enough. Is it a good read?

In Royals #10, the Inhuman Royal Family have arrived on the planet system of the Progenitors, the gods of the Kree. Is it a divine read?

Certainly, the original Avengers seems to be important part of the upcoming Avengers: No Surrender event, with a lot of artwork centred around the original Avengers statue with the addition of mysterious new character Voyager. Avengers: No Surrender will be made up of the several Avengers titles currently being released, Avengers, USAvengers and Uncanny Avengers, creating[...]

It's begun to interest me more and more in recent issues, but, even then, it didn't really have me grabbed. This issue changed that. Royals #9 is awesome. It feels like this is the story that writer Al Ewing really wanted to tell, and everything before this was an extended prologue intended to build up to this and[...]

Al Ewing and Mike del Mundo will be teaming up for Inhumans: Judgement Day, starting in January 2018 Ewing called the series "the capstone" of the Inhumans story they've been telling The story will essentially be Earth vs The Progenitors, the conclusion of the Inhumans story coming out of ResurrXion Daniel Acuna is on covers,[...]

Sunspot is cool as ever, Squirrel Girl is endearing, Cannonball has the Midwest charm, and Toni Ho is an intellectual badass. I followed Al Ewing's New Avengers all the way up until U.S.Avengers I dropped it for a number of reasons: there were other titles I wanted to read, Power Man, White Tiger, Wiccan, Hulkling, and[...]

The style is nostalgic of older comic book art in a manner somewhat akin to Art Adams. Flint actually gets some panel time in the second half of the comic, as well, which hasn't really happened much since that one issue where we manipulated the gravitational pull of entire planet. When Noh-Varr touches the Skyspear, his visions[...]

I liked Hickman and Spencer's work quite a bit, but it never quite reached the level of enjoyment I got from Bendis's books. Al Ewing did manage to reach that level and even exceed it at times with his Mighty Avengers and Captain America and the Mighty Avengers books I loved those series, and, when he[...]

In the realm of Al Ewing work, it is still greatly overshadowed by his Ultimates, New Avengers, and Mighty Avengers, but it does show potential Hopefully the ever-nearing Progenitors, which seem like an interesting concept to introduce here, will raise the book into greatness. I can recommend this one, but it still seems like an unrealized[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Ultimates Squared #100 from Marvel Comics by Al Ewing, Travel Foreman, Filipe Andrade, Marco Lorenzana, Scott Hanna and Dan Brown with Matt Yackey brings to a conclusion Ewing's long-running plot that has run through numerous iterations of the series, and connections through his other works at Marvel. In fact, it's fair to say Ewing has[...]

Anything you can do to entertain them will also be welcomed. The London Film And Comic-Con will be at the Olympia exhibition hall near Earl's Court and Brompton Park. Joining me at the show are Marv Wolfman, Tommy Yune, Andy Diggle, Geoff Senior, Rantz Hoseley, Simon Furman, Jessica Martin, Ben Templesmith, Will Simpson, Amrit Birdi, Paul Cornell,[...]

Ultimates Squared is a fantastic comic, and this issue is one of the best. It has big ideas, a lot of action, and the art brings it all to life marvelously.

Al Ewing is one of Marvel's top-tier writers right now, and I've yet to see a comic title from him that is less than good — with the exception of the odd off single issues. Ronan the Accuser is one of the best sometimes-villains in the Marvel Universe He stands against the heroes in only so[...]

Avengers come Marvel Legacy this week, and, changing the industry once again, the book will stay mostly the same when issue #11 drops this Fall. But in this case, maybe that's a good thing! As write Al Ewing and artist Paco Diaz deliver U.S Avengers #11 as part of the Marvel Legacy line-wide lenticular not-a-relaunch, fans will be[...]

Royals by Al Ewing and Javier Rodriguez will be affected by… basically continuing to tell its ongoing story without interruption Hey, in the modern comics industry, that's borderline revolutionary! Revealed in an EXCLUSIVE on Marvel media partner website CBR, as part of their quest to find the original Terrigen and kill off one of their own[...]

Writer Al Ewing, one of the best writing talents at Marvel at the moment, has shown great skill in keeping up with continuity in his Mighty Avengers titles and his current Ultimates book He also knows how to put together an interesting story, as shown in this book. We are given many great character moments for[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Al Ewing's Ultimates has been one of Marvel's absolute best titles since the launch of All-New, All-Different Marvel Its mixture of character-focused plots and universe-shaking near-disasters make for an enthralling read It also goes into some interesting and even semi-meta means of adding depth to the existential origins and gods of the Marvel Multiverse. "But[...]

And no, he's not a Nazi. Similarly, it may have left readers wondering where Black Bolt's series, by Saladin Ahmed and Christian Ward, fits in with Royals by Al Ewing and Jonboy Meyers, which also featured the character. Well, this week's Royals #2 seems to have answered all of that and set up the Black Bolt series[...]

Most of that. It's also no surprise that I'm a massive X-Men fan, so with both X-Men and Inhumans Prime issues coming out this week, it is perhaps a bit of a surprise that of the two – I preferred Inhumans Prime. Art by Ryan Sook Written by Al Ewing, the man who is pretty much single-handedly exploring[...]

Do they ruin the enjoyment of a comic? In an interview on Newsarama today, Al Ewing, writer of the upcoming Inhumans series, Royals, made a compelling case in favor of spoilers when asked why he would reveal ahead of time that a major character will die at some point in the book: I'm telling you now – and I'm[...]

The Al Ewing and Ryan Sook are writing and pencilling (respectively) and (according to Beacham) the one shot: sets the landscape for the Inhumans Universe going forward They've said that the various books aren't necessarily interweaved (so far so normal for Marvel) but I think we should see that as a chance for the various creative teams on the main[...]

Can Rich report on comics news from France? I think we'd all like to find out. U.S.Avengers, by Al Ewing and Paco Medina, will confound cartographers around the world on January 4, 2017. In what is either a shameless cash grab with little regard for geography or definitions, or a shrewd prediction of President Trump's plans to[...]

Al Ewing has been reshaping the Marvel Universe with his series The Ultimates. Well, as part of Marvel NOW's Divided We Start relaunch, starting in October, we understand from a bearded industry insider (like that narrows it down) that he will be doing the same, as Ultimates2  with Travel Foreman and covers by Christian Ward. Travel has mostly been[...]

Two Marvel comics by Al Ewing are published today New Avengers, part of Avengers Standoff (ish) and Contest Of Champions But the latter also crosses over with his Ultimates series that he also writes As the team pay a visit to the Grandmaster.  And they are on the track of the fate of Gun-R… …during which they all[...]

Al Ewing has become one of Marvel's biggest names, courtesy of the All-New All-Different Marvel Universe refresh Currently writing New Avengers, Ultimates and Contest Of Champions, and, as we have seen, defining the very nature of the[...]

By Joe Glass Photos by Derek Trum So here we are preparing for Marvel's big panel, which actually came after a cosplaying panel where the entire table of panellists were all cosplaying as Marvel characters (and in really good cosplays too). Tom Brevoort is on modertor duties, who was confused for George R R Martin by the[...]
