Earth X is over now we start getting strange and the picture starts getting wider.
JPL is sadly off art duties and Doug Braithwaite will do all the main series from here on out but now we add crossovers we add more cosmic we add more bullshit we add more Marvel.
Welcome to Universe X
Oh and too that anon who added that sourcebook stuff to the Earth threads that was cool.
Reminder that Daredevil is deadpool in this.

They never come out and confirm it but yeah basically.
Universe puts its focus on part of the Marvel Universe largely put to the background in all the Magical stuff.
Now Krueger starts doing coke. Next, in Paradise X: LSD.
At least both series have some great moments, like the Spidey and Cap issues. Both are depressing as fuck, though.
>>83364665
No. Actually Daredevil is an obscure Spider-Woman character cursed to live forever by Morgan Le Fay.
Ross wanted Daredevi lto be a new character, Krueger wanted , so they decided never reveal who is Daredevil.
I'll post his face once the storytime is over and maybe what's left of the Trilogy Companion..
Which makes a lot of sense considering who is narrating it.

Truly the bleakest timeline

Doug Braithwaite's cool. He did pencils for Alex Ross in Injustice. Thanks for story-timing OP
Oh yeah while we were making connections to things Marvel has taken from this seriesReed Richards being given godlike powers at the end of it is pretty much done in Secret Wars, Hickman REALLY likes this stuff.

It is weird seeing pre-Annihilation StarLord
The tie-ins begin.
>>83365070
Let me see what Hickman took from Earth X...
HYDRA
Terrigen Mists bomb (used before by DnA in War of The Kings)
Richards as the new Eternity
The Celestial embryo inside the planet
Franklin "Galactus" Richards
Hyperion's design
And the Black Bolt scene with Medusa in FF 600 seems inspired by Avenging Host's Black Bolt in the Paradise.
I believe there's more. I was even thinking of writing a guide with everything from Earth X that made into canon.
>>83365087
This was the first time I ever saw StarLord.
>>83365609
Some of the reverse color schemes in the Land of the Dead really work well.
Earth X also had this "trailer" and an awfully boring OST.

This scene is really good.
Wifi just died for a couple minutes
If you stop to think about how this works for even a minute....just don't actually.
Fitting with what is coming this year that we begin with the X history of Strange.
Nice little shout out.
I should read the really early Captain Britain stuff at some point.
>>83364302
I only really liked the first series, Paradise and Universe had too much mar-vell wank
but maybe my opinion has changed so I will read along
This issue contains a really really nice Marvel Cameo in more than one page.
I guess Cap would have met ROM in one of those issues.

>The "marvel universe"
Dohohoho
>>83365350
I still can't believe he made the Celestial egg canon. That shit used to be such a point of contention among my friends.
>>83366993
Well canon in a series no one really talks about or references
Does whatever a spider can.
>>83367088
One of the best Spider-Man stories ever, but sad as fuck.

>Life goes on.
Heh.
For the guy asking about Odin they saved his stuff for here.
This is a common enough trope, usually the most powerful abilities are given to people unable to think how to use them to their potential.

HEY! ABSORBING MAN IS THE FUCKING COOLEST!
Wasn't keeping track of the image count
New Thread.

He also made Mayday as Venom canon, which has a whole domino effect over in the Spider-Man books.
>>83367088
I don't care what anyone says. This is up there in the top 10 best Spider-Man stories of all time.
