Ultimate Comics X #1 Second Printing Variant features the interior art of Arthur Adams on the Cover!

Ultimate Comics X #1 has critics raving:

“This is the archetypical comic story that some readers will one day point back to and say, ‘That was the single greatest issue I ever read.’…Adams turns in phenomenally detailed yet buoyantly composed art as only Arthur Adams can deliver it”- Doug Zawisza, ComicBookResources.Com

“The book lives up to its opening promise of a more hopeful and optimistic story, providing a very human character portrait of a new Ultimate character”—Dave Wallace, ComicsBulletin.Com

“This is Loeb at the top of his game”—Lee Newman, BrokenFrontier.Com

“I enjoyed it…It’s cool to see an alternate universe in which anything can happen and now it finally does.”– Chad Derdowski, Mania.Com

Marvel urges retailers to check their orders on Ultimate Comics X as the series’ very first issue has sold out and continues to draw praise from all corners! With Wolverine dead, Captain America on the run, and the Fantastic Four disbanded, will this mysterious Ultimate X unite the remaining heroes? Or will X destabilize the situation and plunge the Ultimate U into further chaos? Ultimate Comics X #1 Second Printing Variant has the answers!

Marvel is pleased to announce that Incognito #1 & #2, which quickly sold out of both their first and second printings, are collected in the all-new Incognito Must-Have One-Shot. From the Eisner-winning, noir dream team of Ed “The Man Who Killed Captain America” Brubaker, Sean Phillips and Val Staples, Incognito presents the gripping story of a former super villain in the witness protection program. But when he starts using his powers once more, does this spell the end of his rehabilitation… and his very life? Collecting the first two issues of the acclaimed limited series, Incognito Must-Have One-Shot is the perfect jumping on point for the book that critics and fans agree is a hit! Plus, this collection features a new cover by Phillips!

“It’s hard to believe two issues in we’re still seeing the demand for Incognito going through the roof like this,” said Brubaker. “Two major sellouts in a row. I couldn’t be more stunned and grateful that people are checking out what Sean and I are doing.”

Marvel would also like to congratulate Val Staples for his Eisner nomination in the category of “Best Coloring” for his work on Incognito and Criminal.

Don’t miss the series that ComicBookResources.Com deems “a violent, dirty-sexy, noir superhero comic — one that works brilliantly” in the new Incognito Must-Have One-Shot!
