MASTERWORKS KEEPING IT COSMIC IN 2012!

You don’t need cosmic awareness to know that another Masterworks collection of the classic adventures of Captain Marvel is cause for celebration! The space-born super hero rose to greatness in under the stewardship of Jim Starlin – and now Steve Englehart and Al Milgrom are here to take the good Captain to the next level.

Beginning with pivotal first appearance of Nitro and the fight for Compound 13, the action jumps into the Negative Zone where Annihilus confronts Marv’s other half, Rick Jones. Then it’s off to the Blue Area of the Moon where the Lunatic Legion and the Watcher want the Kree Captain dead. It’s a fight that will forever change our Nega-Band-bound combo.

Next comes a trip to the Watcher’s homeworld for trial of Uatu. A return to Hala reveals the Supreme Intelligence’s master plan for Cap and Rick, and the residents of Earth aren’t going to like it one bit. Topped off with menaces including Ronan the Accuser, Drax the Destroyer and the Stranger; team-ups with Ant-Man and the Wasp; and appearances of cosmic Marvel lynchpins the Universal Church of Truth and the Soul Gem, these are the intergalactic adventures that made Captain Marvel a legend!
