Firstly, here are the five teaser images and trailer that Marvel released throughout the week.
As we already know, the images in teasers like this often don't end up being in the actual series' but they're extremely intriguing nonetheless! Now, I'm not sure whether any of you have noticed these cryptic ads in recent Marvel comic books which are obviously tied to the event. Any idea what they mean?
Finally, here is what Tom Brevoort and Axel Alonso had to say in a recent interview with
Comic Book Resources about the upcoming event as well as when all the details about it will finally be revealed!
"You know, we went into the Heroic Age, and we took a year or so off from doing big, interconnected event series, because we sensed a certain fatigue was setting in, both on the part of the readers and our creators. And fans seemed to like that for the most part. But now we're all well-rested and it's time to get back to business again."
"So the thing we're going to be talking about a week from now is massive. It's incredibly huge, incredibly far-reaching. It's a big ol' bombshell to drop, and there's not much more I can say about it ahead of time. But yes, this will not be a small thing. This will be a grand, sweeping, epic Marvel event the likes of which you haven't seen in a few years. It's definitely larger in scope than "Siege," more on the scale of "Secret Invasion," and as ambitious in its way as "Civil War."
"To that end, we're having a press conference on Tuesday at Noon Eastern at a location we can't reveal quite yet. But if you can't make it, we're streaming the whole thing live on Marvel.Com."
Until then, let the speculation commence! After a year of some pretty poor mini-events as Marvel call them ("Shadowland" anyone?) I for one am looking forward to another big event especially as "The Heroic Age" has been somthing of a let down so far in my eyes. Be sure to share your thoughts on this in the usual place!
