Heroes Reborn #1 just looks like a Marvel comic book. A particular standout in this regard is the Silver Witch who really feels like the best of various eras of Marvel put together in one character, visually. There are elements that have a sinewy feel reminiscent of 90s comics with the tones and hues that draw from multiple eras. Ed McGuinness, Mark Morales, and Matthew Wilson (pencils, inks, and colors, respectively) create this incredible and substantial visual landscape that feels both vintage and contemporary at the same time.

He has Blade narrating the things he's witnessing-a Robbie Reyes who isn't Ghost Rider, a Dr.

It's a pretty hefty task, with Aaron having to establish just how off-normal this reality is while also making it clear that this isn't just some other iteration of things but, instead, something very wrong with reality itself. This time around it's about him passing the torch to the new generation."Ĭrave scoop on your favorite TV shows?

"Matt's made a decision that's based on taking care of his family, but it puts us in opposition."įortunately, not all the old characters have changed too much.

"Everybody's just trying to take care of themselves and take care of their families," Coleman says.
