A superhero chopping a dude's head in half on this John Cassaday cover? Warren Ellis at the type writer?
No, it's not a "New 52" reboot of StormWatch: Black, The Authority or Planetary, it's just Secret Avengers #18... the dome-splitting duty is courtesy of Shang Chi's deadly hands of kung fu, so Jack Hawksmoor can take the day off. I haven't read a single issue of
Secret Avengers so I can't provide any context for these pages (which have no letters yet), but I understand Shang Chi getting his Ong Bak on, so I figured you would too...
Here's the Sales Pitch:
A can of matter the size of a football, mined from
a broken universe, would be enough to turn the Earth into a sun. There
are people, hidden from the view of the world, who would do that either
to hold the planet to ransom -- or just to die knowing they took
everyone else with them. And right now there are just three people --
Steve Rogers, The Black Widow and Shang-Chi -- between us and total
annihilation, trapped on a space station in the No-Zone...
That last panel reminded me that Warren Ellis is writing this book... Anyways,
Secret Avengers #18 drops October 26.
holla!
samax.
