As was pointed out on Twitter, that's Jonathan Hickman, writer of Secret Wars and probably the closet thing right now to a Captain Universe of the 616… Brian Bendis does love to tease storylines from the Marvel Universe in his Ultimate Spider-Man comics, as ranting folks are carried, cuffed, through the police station They have[...]

Who is Hank Johnson, Agent Of Hydra? When Marvel are collecting their Secret Wars spinoff series, some books will be shuffling up and making room for another in two-series-in-one collections. Such as E is for Extinction/X-Tinction Agenda and 1602 Witch Hunter/Siege  The 176 page count might suggest 160 pages of comics, eight issues worth of four issues a series. It also[...]

You can't miss that this week's Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man #12 is a Secret Wars lead in.

We know that there is a unrebooted Marvel after Secret Wars CB Cebulski was able to circumnavigate the Tom Brevoort teasing to give it to people straight, like a pear cider that's made with 100% pears.

Odds are that, considering Marvel have already presold over half a million copies of Secret Wars #1, that they will do their best to make it as self contained as they can.
