Marvel Comics has released a new trailer for their upcoming comic Fantastic Four: Reckoning War Alpha #1. The story will shed light on the First War that rocked the Marvel Universe, a conflict that preceded Asgard, Galactus, and all the heroes you know and love. Written by Dan Slott with art by Carlos Pacheco and Carlos Magno, find it in comic book shops on February 2nd.
“When I was eight years old I read a particular Marvel comic that struck me. It got me thinking ‘If this happened, and that happened, then the whole Marvel universe would be in trouble. Every facet would be in danger if this conflict happened again, and I’ve sat back and waited since I was eight years old and no one ever touched on this. And that made me happy,” Slott explained to Newsarama. “The Reckoning War is me finally being able to answer the question an eight-year-old me had: What if those guys showed up again? It’s chaos, madness… A fight for your life. This is my Star Wars.”
Watch the trailer below.
