Written by ED BRUBAKER
Pencils & Cover by STEVE EPTING
Variant Cover by GERALD PAREL
70th Anniversary Party Variant by PHIL JIMENEZ
The centerpiece of Marvel's 70th Anniversary celebration! Who is the mysterious
old man who lies on his deathbed in a hospital in 1939, and how does his passing
mark the beginning of the first heroic age of the Marvel Universe - and signal
the rise of the superhumans? Ed Brubaker and Steve Epting unveil the defining
story of the origin of the Marvel Universe, revealing the hidden connections
that unite the earliest costumed champions, and whose reverberations are felt
dramatically into the present day! It's a world on the brink of war, and the
race is on to create the world's first super-soldier! Witness the first days of
the Human Torch, the Sub-Mariner, and many more-- how they shaped the world to
come, and how the future they would create in turn shaped them! The must-read
event of the season for any Marvel fan from the Award-Winning creators who
redefined Captain America for the modern audience!
