The War of the Realms is coming in April to a comic book store near you… and no corner of the Marvel Universe will be untouched!  But before Marvel’s latest epic event kicks-off, Marvel invites you to journey on the road to the War of the Realms with some of the universe’s biggest heroes!

Join the Avengers as they battle the undead, who are vying for the title of the new Lord of the Damned!  Hop into space with the Asgardians of the Galaxy as they encounter Ego the Living Planet!  And in the final prelude to the War of the Realms, prepare for an invasion with Thor and Lady Freyja as they fight to keep Midgard safe from an initial strike by the Dark Elves…
