PREMIERING A DIFFERENT KIND OF MARVEL HERO!

As the 1970s dawned, Marvel Comics marched into a new era. An era whose heroes increasingly reflected the turmoil and social unrest of the time, and as Marvel’s heroic pantheon evolved a newly christened hero debuted to herald in that new era – Adam Warlock!

Mixing super-hero action with equal parts social consciousness and allegory, writer Roy Thomas and artist Gil Kane, in some of the most accomplished work of his career, launched Warlock on a wild ride across the cosmos to Counter-Earth! Hastened by the High Evolutionary to be the savior of this parallel planet, Warlock, armed for the first time with his soul gem, must do battle with the evil Man-Beast for the very planet itself!

Featuring guest-appearances by Dr. Doom, Reed Richards, and no less than the Incredible Hulk, this volume of never-before-collected stories is one that you won’t want to miss, and you can bet your pet rock on that!
