Marvel’s newuniversal explodes into a premiere hardcover collection

From the critically acclaimed team of Warren Ellis & Salvador Larroca came the first volume of newuniversal, an epic new story showing how very real people are affected by an event that grants superpowers to a handful of humans. With this summer's release of newuniversal: Everything Went White Premiere HC, the question on everyone's mind is the same: when do we get the next "season" of this powerful epic series?

Marvel is pleased to announce that 2008 will see the return of newuniversal to comic stands, as the second season kicks off with the kind of bang you'd expect from Warren Ellis, the mind behind Nextwave and Thunderbolts. Like your favorite television dramas, the creative team behind this hit comic book series is taking some time off to return even bigger and bolder than before, with two factions fighting for control of Earth's superhuman population.

“I'm thrilled at the reception to this series,” says Executive Editor Axel Alonso.  “And Season One only scratched the surface of the newuniverse.”

Don't be left out-pick up the first collection of newuniversal this summer, the series that Newsarama.Com's Lucas Siegel declared a “relevant” story for our times, gushing that Ellis & Larroca have produced, “a truly cool superhuman story.”
