Really creative way to bring the MCU back to 1602. ( )

England 1602. An old and sick Elizabeth I is on the throne - barely. Unnatural weather hangs over England. The Templars have a secret that could be used as a weapon and all the powers in Europe want it. There are Witchbreeds (mutants) in the land including equivalents of Spiderman, Daredevil, the X Men, Dr Doom, Magneto, Archangel, who are still under threat from those who would fear them.[return][return]A Watcher - who should not interfere - tells the humans that the universe will be destroyed because the forerunner has arrived and the space rift will pull the universe apart. The mutants have to find the rift whilst escaping those who wish to destroy them.[return][return]Fine pulling together of the Marvel Universe and it is always fun to play "spot the mutant out of spandex" game ( )

Nella terz'ultima parte ci si perde un pò... (chi? cosa? e soprattutto quando?).

Probabilmente (my fault) ho sbagliato portale... Troppi dei 'sfiniscono' ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞

Omnia
mutantur, nos
et mutamur
in illis, tutte
le cose mutano,
e noi mutiamo con esse.


Ritorna, ritorna
da me. Ritorna dalle
stelle e dalle lune e
dal buio e dal freddo,
Stephen. Ritorna dalla
polvere e dal mondo
degli specchi e dei
riflessi. Ritorna
al calore e
alla carne...

Found this while binging on Neil Gaiman this summer. This comic series puts our favorite superheroes back in time doing what they always do: fighting enemies of the state, and dealing with those who hate them for being inhuman. interesting to see how each character fit into another time, and which characters appeared. Fun, quick paced, and just a good story. ( )

For Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko... for giving us the characters with the stamina of time, that we could take them back in time. For Neil Gaiman and Joe Quesada... for having faith in me. And for my father, Joe Kubert... for showing me how. (Andy Kubert)
