ComicCon 2007: Captain Marvel definately coming this year!


Writer Brain Reed (Ms. Marvel) has been announced to write the return of Captain Marvel, which was announced some time during the Civil War comics when he returned. However, for months fans have been speculating when the new comic would be released, which has been confirmed to be sometime this year.

Also confirmed was that Lee Weeks would be animating the comic.

Here's some information that was revealed during Comic-Con about the project-

*It picks a couple of months after the end of Civil War, and we'll find out what Captain Marvels been doing all that time.
*As already known, he hasn't come back from the dead, but rather has traveled through time.
*The series will (sadly) be a five part mini-series, and what is going to happen at the end, well, he obviously didn't say. Who knows, maybe they'll find a cure for his cancer which ultimately will be the most probable cause of his death.
*S.H.I.E.L.D will have a major part in the series. Why? Because at the beginning of the comic, Mar-Vell goes missing, and Tony Stark (Iron Man) is worried, because in the past (where Mar-Vell came from), he died, and if he dies in the current time, who knows what will happen to history! So S.H.I.E.L.D is trying to track him down.
*Ms. Marvel will appear in the series.
*It will tie in with the stories found in New Avengers: Illuminati which is going on right now.
*Reed believes the first book will be released in November.
