Marvel has announced three new Secret Wars series titles under the Warzones! umbrella: Inferno, Where Monsters Dwell, and M.O.D.O.K. Assassin launching in May.
{IMAGE_3}Inferno will be written by Dennis Hopeless (Spider-Woman, Avengers Arena), with art and main cover by Javier Garron (Cyclops). The story is set in the ruins of Manhattan, five years after the events of the 1989 Inferno crossover event that saw a band of demons rise and destroy the island, despite the efforts of the X-Men to prevent it. Colossus leads a small band of surviving mutants (Nightcrawler, Boom Boom, Domino) back into the Inferno to save his sister Illyana from the Goblin Queen. Variant cover for issue #1 is provided by Adi Granov.
Garth Ennis will write the five-issue series Where Monsters Dwell, with art by Russ Braun and an issue #1 cover by Frank Cho. Flying ace Karl Kaufman, the Phantom Eagle, finds himself stuck in the Valley of Flame, a prehistoric land of dinosaurs, with socialite Clementine Franklin-Cox. There will be dogfights with dinosaurs, fights with cannibals and more in this prehistoric mash-up by Ennis.
Chris Yost (Amazing X-Men, co-writer Thor: The Dark World) will script the new M.O.D.O.K. Assassin limited series, with art by Amilcar Pinna (All-New Ultimates) and a cover by David LaFunente. Set in Killville, a world populated by thieves, mercenaries and killers, M.O.D.O.K. is a head above the rest. Now the mercenary will take on Doc Ock, Bullseye and Baron Mordo, and that’s only in the first issue.
Warzones! is one of three Secret Wars story brands created for the event (see "'Warzones!' The Final 'Secret Wars' Umbrella Brand").
