Spencer erzählte die Vorgeschichte zu diesem Event im Sammelband AVENGERS: STANDOFF – OHNE AUSWEG und CAPTAIN AMERICA: STEVE ROGERS. Captain Americas alter Freund Rick Jones enthüllte zunächst als Hacker, dass SHIELD in einem geheimen Programm mit der Macht eines kosmischen Würfels experimentierte, wel- cher die Realität verändern kann. Dabei hatten SHIELD-Wissenschaftler aus Würfel-Fragmen- ten unabsichtlich das mächtige Mädchen Kobik erschaffen. Am Ende nutzte Red Skull, Caps Erzfeind aus dem Zweiten Weltkrieg, Kobik dazu, die Vergangenheit und das Leben von Steve Rogers umzuschreiben. In der veränderten Wirklichkeit wurde Rogers bereits als Kind von Madame Hydra für die faschistische Organisation Hydra rekrutiert und lernte, dass die Starken zum Wohle aller die Schwachen beherrschen sollten. Später unterwanderte Cap die Heldenge- meinschaft und die US-Regierungsbehörde SHIELD, deren Chef er kürzlich geworden war. Das Marvel-Universum, das in diesem Band mit Caps Verrat konfrontiert wird, hat in den vergan- genen Jahren schon einige Entwicklungen erlebt: Iron Man Tony Stark fiel ins Koma, weshalb eine auf seinem Bewusstsein basierende KI die junge Heldin Ironheart Riri Williams anleitet; Hawkeye Clint Barton killte den Hulk Dr. Bruce Banner im zweiten Superheldenkrieg; Hank Pym verschmolz mit seiner Schöpfung, dem bösartigen Maschinengott Ultron; seine Tochter Nadia trat ihr Erbe als Wasp an; mehrere Junghelden haben sich als Champions zusammengetan, darunter Visions Tochter Viv und Nachwuchs-Netzschwinger Miles Morales; immer mehr Men- schen verwandeln sich in Inhumans und erhalten erstaunliche Kräfte; und Jane Foster schwingt anstelle des unwürdigen Odinsohn als Thor den Hammer. Jetzt kommt auch noch der definitive Verrat durch den definitiven Helden und Patrioten… SECRET EMPIRE PAPERBACK erscheint bei PANINI COMICS, Rotebühlstr. 87, D-70178 Stuttgart.

  • Captain America Created by Joe Simon & Jack Kirby WRITER NICK
    Steve Rogers’ reality has been secretly rewritten by Kobik, a sentient Cosmic Cube acting under the influence of the Red Skull. In Steve’s new history, a Hydra agent named Elisa Sinclair--A.K.A. Madame Hydra--took Steve from his mother and enrolled him in a school where he was trained to believe in Hydra’s ideals. He also befriended a young Helmut Zemo, whose father, Heinrich, would later be killed by Bucky Barnes. In the present, Zemo and Madame Hydra have returned to Steve’s side, and the pieces are falling into place for a complete Hydra takeover. Steve killed the Red Skull and assumed control of his forces, Madame Hydra gathered a new Hydra High Council, and Zemo routed the Thunderbolts and captured Bucky, but Kobik was shattered in the process.* Meanwhile, fugitive former S.H.I.E.L.D.

  • AIM (ADVANCED IDEA MECHANICS) Villain Team
    AIM (ADVANCED IDEA MECHANICS) Villain Team AIM (Advanced Idea Mechanics) is a subversive organization dedicated to creating a worldwide technocracy – or rule by scientists. As far as the public at large is concerned, AIM is a legitimate munitions corporation with a sizable research and development department for advanced experimental technology, albeit one that has a shady reputation for questionable ethics. In fact, the United States government agency SHIELD is a known client of theirs (see SHIELD). Secretly, AIM is the number one supplier of advanced technology to the criminal element. A number of costumed villains have purchased technology from them. The most common piece of AIM-tech in use with the super-set is an advanced ballistic fabric which is often sold to government agencies and various costume shops, such as the one owned by Gladiator; it is estimated that the majority of superheroes and supervillains alike who don't wear uniforms made of the unstable molecules developed by Reed Richards have their uniforms made from AIM's ballistic fabric (see Gladiator; Mister Fantastic). Most supers are not aware their uniforms are made from AIM's ballistic fabric. By all reports, AIM was founded in the aftermath of World War II by Dr. Arnim Zola, a German scientist who became disillusioned with what he saw as the limited vision of the future entertained by the Nazi elite and willingly defected to the United States during the final year of the war (see Zola, Dr. Arnim). Zola started AIM with the idea of creating a super-intelligent ruling elite. At first, Zola recruited fellow German scientists, most of whom had originally worked with him with the Nazi Hydra science division (see HYDRA).

  • MARVEL POP ART PRODUCTIONS the Classic Marvel Comics Group—Set in the Modern Day
    MARVEL POP ART PRODUCTIONS The Classic Marvel Comics Group—Set in the Modern Day A Proposal by Carlton J Donaghe This is a proposal for a line of giant, magazine-sized Marvel Comics, published for an all-ages, general market under the banner ‘Marvel Pop Art Productions.’ This line doesn’t replace any imprint currently published by Marvel. Instead, this self- contained set of 12 monthly titles will present a modernized version of the original Marvel Comics Group (with some later characters thrown in) packaged into an easily- accessible product designed for the general distribution market. The depiction of Marvel’s most recognizable characters in their well-known original costumes and settings will both benefit from and promote the continued use of the classic comics in merchandise and licensing. Format Each issue of every title will contain three 20-page comics, each comic with its own interior cover page and two-page spread of introductions and recaps using art from previous issues. In addition, every issue will contain a set of features, called the FOOM (Friends Of Ol’ Marvel) Pages—all in a single format, pulling the entire line together, making every one of the twelve titles an individual part of a single, sprawling epic. The front cover of each title will be a modernized version of the classic Marvel Comics Group format from the mid-1960’s, decorated with captions and blurbs in boxes, circles and arrows, and an action-oriented cover, drawn by a regular rotation of the three interior artists, depicting an exciting scene from their own story in the moment it is happening.

  • The Great Big Marvel Character Index (GBMCI) Compiled by Andrew Goldstein [1]
    The Great Big Marvel Character Index (GBMCI) Compiled by Andrew Goldstein [1] Version 1.0, last revised 01/20/2018 This index notes each character from the Marvel Universe that was described in one or more MARVEL SUPER HEROES game products. The abbreviations used herein follow. The letter D, followed by a number, indicatesthat the character was mentioned in that issue of DRAGON® Magazine (issues #88 to #198). The letter P, followed by a number, indicates the given issue number of POLYHEDRON Newszine in which a character was mentioned (issues #18 to #61). Some products listed did not mention specific heroes or villains, but are included here to show the complete line of MARVEL SUPER HEROES game products. In cases where character entries occupy multiple pages, the page number given denotes the beginning page of the character entry. Note that this index ONLY includes characters published under the TSR "FASERIP" system; it does not include source material for the SAGA or any other subsequent incarnation of the Marvel RPG, or unpublished "vaporware" works in progress that were never commercially released, etc. This index also does not include various issues of the Marvel-Phile and other publications which do not include character information (for example, the various Ultimate Power Book addenda, Q&A, and the character indexes themselves) although some of those articles do include non- character stats (e.g., Marvel Universe technology, or real-world miltary generic stats). The TSR-produced miniatures sets are likewise not listed, because why the heck would you need to look those up? The index will eventually include fan-made material that follows the same system, as relevant to the Marvel canon.
