So is Zdarsky writing all of the Armageddon book?No other writer is touching the tie-ins?
>>153155241>>153155251No other tie-ins? OddMaybe they're pulling another Imperial and adding a bunch of one-shots to fill the gap between issues
>>153155307Could it be that it won't have any tie-ins except for Zdarsky's Captain America, but a lot of things are meant to spin out of this like a new Avengers book or a new SHIELD book ect.
>>153155241Paul becomes Miracle Man
>>153155480Obviously they're using Armageddon to launch a bunch of new stuff, but it seems awfully suspicious that Marvel isn't having a bunch of tie-ins to an event like thisEven Queen In Black had a bunch of tie-ins announced alongside it
>>153155269Zdarsky is the new writer on Avengers + Cap so he's doing crossovers with his own books + Wolverine that they borrowed from Brevoort. But since Ewing (Thor), PKJ (Hulk) and Williamson (Iron Man) are off doing their own things he really can't do a line wide crossover
>>153155745The crossover is only limited to the characters Zdarsky controls which is Capain America, the Avengers team and Wolverine (since he's part of Avengers now I guess). Much like how alot of Queen in Black is just Venom adjacent characters and Thor characters because Ewing has control of those two books.
>>153155241So is gonna be a Sentry version or just another super soldier?
>>153155691Marvel isn't going to touch Miracle Man again after the sales flop of Silver Age
>>153155895It's David Colton, who was the Captain America during the War on TerrorWeapons of Armageddon is most likely ending with Colton opening the origin box that he stole from PrimeWarrior and gaining Sentry's or Hyperion's powers
>>153155973presumably the sentries since he was a human who gained power by serum and not an eternal
>>153155973When did Miles lose another Origin Box? How many did he bring back?
>>153156377>When did Miles lose another Origin Box?Miles seems to lose them in Ultimate Impact #1, and WoA #1 apparently takes place AFTER that despite being published before it>How many did he bring back?The teaser page that appeared in his solo showed 4, but it could be more
>>153155899Why did it flop? It was better than all the other Marvel books at the time.
>>153155899>Marvel isn't going to touch Miracle Man again after the sales flop of Silver AgeI think it more has to do with Gaiman's allegations forcing them to essentially put the plans for Dark Age on hold
>>153155973They are writing Colton based on Naked Snake/Big Boss.
>character has a cape and superman powersAny bets?
>>153156605The vast majority of people who gave a shit about the unpublished Miracle Man shit are either dead or stopped reading comics long, long ago. Miracle Man really doesn't have any interest outside the Alan Moore stuff and even that's pretty thin, it's no where near the level of Watchmen or even V for Vendetta or Swamp Thing
>>153157136It's a new character
>>153159319ProbablyBut the question is if the power is coming from one of the Ultimate Universe Origin Boxes, then whose powers are they?
shill thread
>>153155241So exciting...
>>153157383What about the ones wasting time on Spider-Man, X-Men, and Avengers?
>>153155241>A New Hero with Unrivaled PowerIs it FINALLY time for the Wild Man? We've been waiting since Future Imperfect for him to show up
>>153159475Huh? So the macguffins are palette swap machines reproducing 616 characters...like the synergy Wonder Man and the female Dr Strange. What were the other two? So this new guy is...Hyoerion?
>>153163346Juggernaut and Annihilus
>>153155241Is this the most boring event in recent years? It’s just Rulk vs Synergyvengers. Who cares? Even the solicits aren’t bothering to sell it, as the text blurbs are low effort generalisations that barely say anything. There’s not even any tie-ins.
>>153164441I'm not sure why it's even an event.
>>153164480To be a springboard for the next Avengers volume and maybe Ultimate 3.0.
>>153165476Ultimate is gone and not coming back.
>>153165489The universe is but they going to do something similar to what happened after Secret Wars were there is an Ultimates team in the mainline 616 universe
