Massive Character Changes at Marvel Comics
Ever since the “Marvel Now” initiative went into effect, The House of Ideas has been taking risk after risk with some of their most popular characters. They “killed” Peter Parker and replaced him with Otto Octavius, stripped Wolverine of his healing factor, brought the original 1960’s X-Men into the present time, and even did a Battle […]

First Look at Spider-Man 2099 in Superior Spider-Man #17
With the time rip from Age of Ultron, Miguel O’Hara will make his Marvel 616 debut in Superior Spider-Man #17. Here’s the interesting part.

SDCC 2013: Bendis and Bagley return to the Ultimate Universe
You would think that after a massive flood and a civil war that broke the United States in half, the Ultimate Marvel universe would get a break. That’s not the case.
