COMICS: Marvel To Reboot In 2015? "Time Runs Out" Teases the Future
Talk has turned to the possibility of a Marvel relaunch as a result of Jonathan Hickman's work on Avengers, Infinity and more in the past few years. Time is running out for Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and, with planets set to collide, we may be in a new world next year...
Though DC took the reboot approach to their complicating continuity, Marvel has stuck to their guns and kept their sliding timeline. But that may change soon, with rumours sirculating that the publisher will start over. At Diamond’s Retailer Summit in Las Vegas, it was revealed that Jonathan Hickman's Avengers #35 and New Avengers #24 will jump ahead eight months this September, akin to DC's Futures End event in the same month. Hickman's Avengers title has been focusing on the threat of incursions and other realities forging into ours, with either one world facing the destruction or both perishing. "Time Runs Out sees everything Jonathan Hickman has been building towards comes to a close and will affect the entire Marvel company across the board, forcing them to do something the company has never done in its 75 years."
The popular opinion among retailers at the event was reboot, and if this teaser image is anything to go by, the current Marvel Universe may be no more. What do you think? Will our planet survive, or will we be in an all-new world next May? The presentation said to expect reveals in the coming weeks, so keep it here at ComicBookMovie.com for the latest on a possible relaunch.
