The Avengers and Fantastic Four have teamed up to combat the cosmic calamity, and First Family scribe Slott has introduced a new Elder from the Marvel Universe into the EMPYRE action: the Profiteer. “The Profiteer only cares about one thing: making a profit,” he explains. “She wants, by the end of the game, to have most of the toys. And that’s all she cares about. And her biggest meal ticket to date has been supplying weapons for the Kree and Skrulls. So, everything what happens at EMPYRE will have a great effect on her, on what she is doing, and we will see it more in the Cosmic books. “
Slott concludes with a provocation by the end of this titanic tome: “… you will also see important ramifications for the Fantastic Four, for the cosmos and for the Marvel Universe. The entire Marvel Universe.”
“I can back all of that up,” Ewing agrees! (Who happens to talk about his plans for Jennifer Walters …)
Next up is Senior Editor Jordan D. White, and he’s talking about all the X-Men and X OF SWORDS stuff! Along with writers Tini Howard and Gerry Duggan, the trio talks about Dawn of X and the main crossover story on the way this year.
