Marvel will publish a new "Secret Wars" by writer Jonathan Hickman and artist Esad Ribic as a year-long event starting in May 2015, the publisher revealed Thursday night at an offsite event at Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. in Times Square. The story will commence at the conclusion of the currently running "Avengers" and "New Avengers" storyline, "Time Runs Out."

Oh.

Well.

Bring OG Beyonder back and show people what true overpoweredness is.

 

[jph139]

Secret Wars by Hickman sounds pretty awesome to be honest. I'd read it.

 

[overcast]

Secret War meaning the film where Spider Man and the Sinister Six take on their greatest foes, The Avengers.

2016, same week as BvS.

 

[Gartooth]

Hahahaha. XD

There's a lot of disappointment to go around.

 

[Diprosalic]

biggest announcement of 2014 which 0.01% of your current audience cares about.

 

[Dalek]

HOLY SHIT, SECRET WARS GUYS!

Hickman is the best writer working and Esad Ribic is the best artist working.

I'm so fucking hyped, this is gonna be big.

 

[Lord Fagan]

Cute. Another event to avoid finally finishing HIckman/Weaver SHIELD.

An event that will change NOTHING!!!

 

[CrazyDogg77]

A damn Secret Wars redo. I don't know what I expected but it wasn't this

 

[……forgetit]

So this is a new movie? Or a continuation of the comic series?

 

[TuXx]

Trolled once again.

 

[Bobby Roberts]

That's Marvel's biggest announcement yet?

Their biggest announcement of 2014 was the actual quote.

Secret Wars, huh.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Oh... Secret Wars...

Y'know I'm more hyped about the movies than the comics TBH. Oh well it's cool.

 

[Parallax]

no reboot. all is right with the world.

 

[Toa TAK]

Manhattan Projects guys, just saying.

 

[EightBitNate]

So this is a new movie?

No its the next game in Marvel vs Capcom series.

 

[beyond_death]

Had a feeling it was comic related. Didnt something similar happen a while back with female Thor?

Anyway, I'm always up for anything Hickman.

 

[Dai101]

HOLY SHIT, SECRET WARS GUYS!

It's a new toothpaste.

 

[rexor0717]

Oh, and here I thought it would be something people cared about.

Edit: I*

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Bet you once we get more in-depth details, the "biggest announcement of 2014" hype will make more sense. Hint:

Spoiler

It's the first story of the rebooted Marvel Universe.

 

[Rastafarian42]

Secret War so it'll be similar to the OG Goat comic book cross-over ?

 

[Archaix]

Have they done anything with Secret Wars since 2? I almost remember something about a new Secret Wars while I wasn't reading comics, but I was probably hallucinating.

I have been thinking about signing up for this for a month to check it out, and now I would feel silly signing up for a month instead of the year. Because I'm a fool.

 

[Timedog]

What's better, Secret Wars or Advanced Wars 2?

 

[Stumpokapow]

While there's a Marvel thread on the front page, I had a question about the MCU and I was hoping someone here knew the answer to.

When Disney bought Marvel, they also arranged to take back the distribution rights to Iron Man 1, Iron Man 2, Thor, and Captain America (the MCU films, not the characters). All of these films were previously distributed by Paramount. As a result, these films are now sold by Disney and have Disney branding in many cases.

It seems that Universal still owns the distribution rights for The Incredible Hulk (the Ed Norton / MCU film).

Does anyone have any information on why exactly Disney got the distribution rights back for all the other MCU films but not this one? Is it just indifference, or did Universal overplay their hand, or what? Is there a known time where distribution rights will revert to Marvel, and thus Disney, if an agreement doesn't occur?

Also, has Disney gotten the distribution rights to any pre-MCU Marvel films?

 

[SliceSabre]

Welp, that's what I get for blowing my load too early. I am so unsatisfied right now.

Kudos to the comics loves I guess.

With that, a trailer for a television special titled Marvel: From Pulp to Pop aired. The one-hour special will be hosted by Emily VanCamp, star of the television series Revenge, who also played Sharon Carter (aka "Agent 13") in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The documentary will air November 4 at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC.

Is Marvel Unlimited worth it? Do they have the new titles, such as Avengers vs X-men?

 

[Zeus Molecules]

Man.... this is going to be so good

 

[Parallax]

Oh, and here I thought it would be something people cared about.

Edit: I*

we dont know much about it so far, but if the body of hickmans work is speaking for it, theres a reason to be excited

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Is Marvel Unlimited worth it? Do they have the new titles, such as Avengers vs X-men?

Everything is 6 months behind the new releases, so it should have AvX.

I could have swore it had something to do with the hulk ride at universal studios.

 

[Horseress]

Nice! Do they have all their big arcs there?

 

[DarkFlow]

Is Marvel Unlimited worth it? Do they have the new titles, such as Avengers vs X-men?

I pay for it monthly, but I think it's worth it. The only drawback is a 6 month delay on newsstand to unlimited.

 

[Mudcrab]

Man... all signs pointed to Hickman leaving Marvel after Time Runs Out and now we find out he'll have another major event with Ribic. Sorry for the movie guys but this is great news.
