COMICS: New Art And Details On Charles Soule's SECRET WARS Tie-In CIVIL WAR
New details on Charles Soule and Leinil Francis Yu's Civil War have been revealed. The series will be a tie-in to Marvel's upcoming event Secret Wars, and will follow a world ravaged by the war between heroes.
Marvel's upcoming event Secret Wars has led to many writers and artist revisiting past stories and putting new twists on them. Among the stories being revisited is Mark Millar and Steve McNiven's Civil War. The tie-in will be led by writer Charles Soule and artist Leinil Francis Yu, and will present a new take on the conflict between Iron Man and Captain America.
"The idea is to take some of the events in the original storyline and spin them off into entirely new stories," Charles Soule told CNN, "without spoiling, this deals with a world that has been ravaged for quite some time when we pick up the story."
Soule also reveals that the Registration Act is "all in the past at this point," and that the story is more about "a world drastically changed based on a superhero war, and it's a huge story and it's fun to be able to involve every Marvel character there is."
No exact release date has been given for the tie-in series, but with Secret Mays set for this May expect to learn the release date soon.
