Cosmic power structure within Marvel Universe to undergo shift during Imperial Event

Marvel Comics is set to embark on a new cosmic journey with the upcoming miniseries "Imperial." Scheduled to begin on June 4, this four-part saga promises groundbreaking developments and new designs for key players in the Marvel Universe.

Writer Jonathan Hickman, known for his work on "Ultimate Invasion," compares "Imperial" to his previous work but notes that it is more of a story rather than a world-building exercise. Hickman, a self-professed fan of Marvel's galactic cast, is excited to establish a new status quo for future creatives to play around with.

The story of "Imperial" is a cosmic epic centered around the assassination of several galactic leaders. This event triggers a chain of coups, wars, and shifting empires in the universe. The main characters include Black Panther, several Hulks (including Skaar), the Guardians of the Galaxy, and Nova.

The art team, consisting of Federico Vizenti, Iban Coello, and Marco Checchetto, is equally excited about the special corner of the Marvel Universe they are working on. Their art will undoubtedly contribute to the groundbreaking developments and new designs promised by the series.

"Imperial" will pave the way for an entirely new landscape of Marvel comics set in space. The upcoming miniseries is expected to have significant implications for the future of Marvel comics, leading to a new era of galactic adventures.

Stay tuned for the release of "Imperial" starting June 2025 by Marvel Comics. This cosmic epic is not one to be missed!
