COMICS: It's The Avengers VS. Guardians 3000 In New SECRET WARS Series, KORVAC SAGA
Dan Abnett will be bringing a brand new Korvac Saga to Marvel's upcoming event, Secret Wars. The Korvac Saga will see the future Guardians pitted against Earth's Mightiest Heroes in an epic battle on Battleworld.
Dan Abnett (Guardians of The Galaxy) will be writing an new Korvac Saga series set within Marvel's upcoming event Secret Wars. The original Korvac Saga saw the Avengers and the future Guardians of The Galaxy team up to stop Michael Korvac, but thhis time things are going to be quite diffent.
The new Korvac Saga will see Michael Korvac as the lord of the Forest Hills domain of Battleworld and will see the Guardians in his service. Korvac will butt heads with a lord of Battleworld's Holy Wood, Wonder Man, who has control of the Avengers.
"He's not a bad guy," Abnett said, differentiating this Korvac from some of his more villainous depictions. "The Guardians are his police, his bodyguards, his retainers. They are loyal to him because they believe in him." The line up of his Guardians will be the same as Abnett's team in his series GUARDIANS 300. While Wonder Man's team of Avengers will consist of Captain Marvel, Jocasta, Black Panther, Hercules, Vision, Moondragon, Yellowjacket and Black Widow.
Dan Abnett: It’s a shocking story, very unusual. A villain who isn’t a full-on villain, and foe that even Earth’s Mightiest Heroes can’t stop. It’s, I think, the original Guardians' most epic, classic story, and it makes Korvac their number one foe, their classic adversary, their arch-nemesis.
