Marvel #1 (of 6)

(W) Alex Ross, More (A) More, Alex Ross (CA) Alex Ross. Thirty years ago* Alex Ross had a vision of a new series showing the Marvel heroes in a way they'd never been seen before. The first realization of that idea became the blockbuster MARVELS but today Alex finally brings about his original vision: An anthology of stories by unique* exceptional talents* many of whom are doing Marvel characters for the very first time. Over this showcase series you'll see work by such artists as Adam Hughes* Bill Sienkiewicz* Dan Brereton and more* linked together by an overarching story by Alex and Steve Darnall. This inaugural issue kicks it all off with superstar artists Frank Espinosa (Rocketo* Looney Tunes) telling an unusual Spider-Man story and Steve Rude (Nexus)* teaming up with Kurt Busiek (Marvels* Avengers) for an Avengers story* framed by Alex and Steve Darnall (Uncle Sam* Marvels) presenting a tale of the dread dreamland Nightmare* and his threat to the entire Marvel Universe...and possibly beyond. A once-in-a-lifetime assemblage of talent you won't want to miss a single page! Rated T
