Written by REGINALD HUDLIN Penciled by JOHN ROMITA JR Cover by JOHN ROMITA JR Deep in the heart of Africa is Wakanda, a technologically advanced civilization of great power and mystery. During the last ten centuries, as European colonial powers spread their guns, armies and undisputed domination throughout the continent, Wakanda has stood alone as an unconquerable land inhabited by undefeatable warriors. Governing this nation is a lineage of warrior-kings possessing enhanced speed, strength and agility. Today, T"Challa is the latest in this famed family line, the great hero known worldwide as the Black Panther. Despite the futile defeats of the past, outsiders are once more assembling to invade Wakanda and plunder its riches. Leading this brutal assault is Klaw, a deadly assassin with the blood of T"Challa's murdered father on his hands. Klaw brings with him a powerful army of super-powered mercenaries, all hell-bent on raining death and destruction on this pristine land. Even with Wakanda's might and his own superhuman skills, can the Black Panther prevail against such a massive invading force? Collecting BLACK PANTHER (2005) #1-6 and FANTASTIC FOUR #52-53.

"An intriguing plot and amazing visuals...one of the most entertaining and exciting Marvel titles I've had the pleasure to read in a long while." - Kelvin Green, SilverBulletComicBooks.com More than thirty-five years ago, comics legend Jack "The King" Kirby returned to the House of Ideas with perhaps his biggest idea of all: the universe of the Eternals! Their creation was the result of Kirby's ceaseless curiosity about the origin of man and his mythologies - but like many of the King's concepts, it was definitely ahead of its time. Flash forward to 2006: Superstar creators Neil Gaiman and John Romita Jr. have boldly taken on these concepts with a loving hand, in the process telling a fresh and crackling fun yarn full of mystery, suspense and majestic power - all with an eye on helping establish Kirby's creations as a vital part of the Marvel Universe once and for all. Against the backdrop of Marvel's CIVIL WAR, the Eternals are being awoken one by one from a strange, waking dream, at once coming to terms with the fact that they are far more than the normal people they have thought themselves to be. They find there is little time to commiserate about such things, however, as they are thrust into a life and death struggle that spans both time and space! Collecting ETERNALS #1-7.

Where were you when Captain America died? Perhaps you were listening to the radio or reading the morning paper. Maybe you were surfing the web or on the phone with a friend.

Written by GREG PAK with BILL MANTLO Penciled by PAUL PELLETIER with MIKE MIGNOLA Cover by JOHN ROMITA JR. Bruce Banner has only ever wanted one thing: to be at peace with the love of his life, Betty Ross. The legacy of the Incredible Hulk has long made this an impossible dream. But now, with the Intelligencia seemingly having restored Betty to life, Banner's pursuit of her has never been more relentless - or inconvenient. For after the Fall of the Hulks, with the master plan of the cunning Intelligencia hitting its every mark toward world domination and an army of Hulked-Out Heroes trashing the nation's capital, the last thing his fellow fighters need to wonder about is Banner's loyalty to them - or Betty. And all the while, Skaar, Son of Hulk, waits for the moment he knows is coming: the emergence of the green-skinned Hulk - so he can kill him and satisfy a lifelong quest for revenge!

The Hulk is gone - transformed back into Bruce Banner, seemingly forever. But Banner knows the Hulk never stays buried. He knows he must prepare. Banner locates Skaar, the Hulk's half-alien son, who burns for revenge on his father. But he's not nearly a match for the Hulk. So now it's up to Banner to train the boy - to kill him once and for all! Plus: Red Hulk wants to put a big red hurt on the Intelligencia, and he'll need Banner to do it. But Red Hulk hates Banner, and the feeling is most definitely mutual. What plans has Rulk been hiding from everyone? What does all this have to do with the Cosmic Hulk robot? And with the Leader's Intelligencia corrupting even the powerful intellects of Reed Richards and Dr. Doom, can a house of Hulks divided do anything but fall?
