Marvel released a 91-page oversized one-shot titled
Incoming #1 ($9.99 USD) on December 26 which was heralded as providing clues for where the publisher is headed in 2020. Well, the first big event spinning out of
Incoming will be
Empyre, which will see
The Avengers and
Fantastic Four teaming up to battle the Kree and Skrulls.
As evidenced by the trailer below, it seems the
House of Ideas will be going science-fiction heavy for the foreseeable future.
As
Incoming revealed, the Kree and Skrull are united once more after eons of conflict by the nefarious Dorrek VIII. If that name sounds foreign, perhaps his alias will be more familiar: Hulkling, the former
Young Avenger and son of Kree superhero Mar-Vell and Skrull princess Anelle.
Empyre #1 will be written by Al Ewing and Dan Slott, with art from Valerio Schiti.
