Next month, Imperial, a four-issue event series by visionary writer Jonathan Hickman and superstar artists Iban Coello and Federico Vicentini, kicks off a galaxy-spanning conflict, boldly transforming the cosmic landscape of the Marvel Universe. The highly anticipated series sets the stage for a new line of intergalactic storytelling, starting with five Imperial one-shots that spotlight individual characters and groups as they navigate the startling developments and explosive conflicts sweeping the stars.
These key chapters of the overarching Imperial narrative will each be co-written by Hickman with the first two hitting stands in August: Imperial War: Black Panther #1 by writer Victor LaValle and art by CAFU and Imperial War: Planet She-Hulk #1 by writer Stephanie Phillips and art by Emilio Laiso. Each features a cover by Francesco Mortarino.
The Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda is under fire from all sides in Imperial War: Black Panther! Blamed for the assassinations that have started an all-out galactic war, T’Challa will first need to survive a brutal assault from the World-Breaker Hulk and Amadeus Cho before he can even think about hunting down the true culprit! And all while his spacecraft spirals towards certain doom! Sounds like another day at the office for the Black Panther!
Then, a brutal war of succession ignites in Imperial War: Planet She-Hulk! Left behind on New Sakaar to keep the peace, Jen Walters discovers that in this savage realm, what’s needed isn’t a litigator, it’s a liquidator! Fortunately, She-Hulk is accomplished at being both!
Preorder Imperial War: Black Panther #1 and Imperial War: Planet She-Hulk #1 at your local comic shop and stay tuned in the weeks ahead for more Imperial War one-shot announcements.
