Now Recruiting: Join the New Warriors!

Spinning out of the red-hot Initiative storyline, New Warriors #3 continues the adventures of the most rebellious team in the Marvel Universe! Night Thrasher, who survived Nitro's cataclysmic explosion at Stamford, now leads a group of young heroes in a fight against super villains and Tony Stark's Super Human Registration Act. But how did he survive Stamford? And just who is under that mask? Writer Kevin Grevioux and penciler Paco Medina present the next exciting chapter in the all-new, top-selling series!

Although Sofia Mantega, the ex-New Mutant known as Wind Dancer, refused the first offer of New Warriors membership by Beak, perhaps Jubilee's startling appearance will convince her to reconsider! After nearly dying in Wolverine: Origins, Jubilee hasn't been seen in some time. Where has she been? How did she meet Night Thrasher? With Jubilee on the scene, you know Wolverine can't be far behind...and he wants to find out the truth about these new heroes! As secrets are revealed, the team must consider Tony Stark's amnesty proposal and a police investigation that'll reveal some shocking secrets about the New Warriors!

Critics are raving about the first two issues of this acclaimed series; Kevin Powers of SilverBulletComicBooks.com writes, "This series has a lot of potential, and I love the direction. This is an Initiative series that I recommend."

After two red-hot issues of New Warriors, there's already a lot at stake for Sofia and her potential teammates-and if Tony Stark has his way, they'll all be shut down permanently! Strap yourself in for Tony Stark's next move, the unveiling of more New Warriors members and the special guest star Wolverine! It's all happening in New Warriors #3, bub!

Ms. Marvel Begins The Search For Arana!

In the aftermath of Civil War, Ms. Marvel formed her own S.H.I.E.L.D strike force and now she's adding two new heroes in Ms. Marvel #18! Written by Brian Reed and penciled by Aaron Lopresti, this brand new story arc introduces Sleepwalker and Machine Man to Ms. Marvel's team, as Carol Danvers searches for the missing Arana. But when they discover the shocking reason for the heroine's disappearance, it'll leave Ms. Marvel-and readers-with their jaws on the floor!

""Brian, Aaron Matt and Chris are once again bringing a classic Marvel villain back to haunt Ms. Marvel's life," said series editor Stephen Wacker. "Not to give anything away, but if you imagine what a Darth Geppetto might be like, you'll have a good idea who wants to take Ms Marvel down for the count!"

Critics continue to praise Ms. Marvel, with SilverBulletComics.Com's Zachary Matzo exclaiming, "You won't be disappointed."

With ties to the top-selling Initiative storyline and the formation of Ms. Marvel's new super-ream, Marvel urges retailers to check their orders on Ms. Marvel #18. She's battled her fellow heroes and her own best friend, so what threat could possibly overwhelm Ms. Marvel? It all leads into the battle you never saw coming!

newuniversal Explodes Into A Premiere Hardcover Collection!

From the critically acclaimed team of Warren Ellis & Salvador Larroca came the first volume of newuniversal, an epic new story showing how very real people are affected by an event that grants superpowers to a handful of humans. With this summer's release of newuniversal: Everything Went White Premiere HC, the question on everyone's mind is the same: when do we get the next "season" of this powerful epic series?

Marvel is pleased to announce that 2008 will see the return of newuniversal to comic stands, as the second season kicks off with the kind of bang you'd expect from Warren Ellis, the mind behind Nextwave and Thunderbolts. Like your favorite television dramas, the creative team behind this hit comic book series is taking some time off to return even bigger and bolder than before, with two factions fighting for control of Earth's superhuman population.

"I'm thrilled at the reception to this series," says Executive Editor Axel Alonso. "And Season One only scratched the surface of the newuniverse."

Don't be left out-pick up the first collection of newuniversal this summer, the series that Newsarama.Com's Lucas Siegel declared a "relevant" story for our times, gushing that Ellis & Larroca have produced, "a truly cool superhuman story."
