<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>THE VISION AND SCARLET WITCH JOIN FORCES IN THEIR VERY OWN MARVEL MASTERWORKS!</strong></h2>



<p>The <em>Marvel Masterworks </em>are proud to present a massive volume collecting the adventures of the Avengers icons — Vision and the Scarlet Witch. We’re including not just the massive 1985 maxiseries that went on to inspire <em>WandaVision</em>, but also rare never-before-reprinted stories that chronicle the couples’ search for acceptance. With rich storytelling and vibrant artwork, these stories explore themes of love, duty and identity, showcasing the enduring bond between two iconic characters. The Vision’s origins are explored, while the Scarlet Witch expands her powers in new and sometimes shocking ways. Wanda’s brother Quicksilver’s prejudice risks splitting their family apart. Will his choices set him on a dark path? And with Wanda’s mystic pregnancy nearing term what will Magneto’s return mean for the mother-to-be?</p>

<p>Luke Cages defends the streets of New York City and even takes the fight to the outer boroughs in this Marvel Masterworks volume completing his solo adventures. He’ll face menaces as tough as Moses Magnum, as bizarre as the Mace and as infuriating as the Gem Theater’s always unpredictable vending machine. It’s all set against the gritty streets of 1970s Times Square, a location as colorful as anything any of Marvel’s minds have ever conjured up. Cage will also face an all-new and amped-up Chemistro; the Spear, who seeks to settle a score with the man who made Luke Cage bulletproof; and an adversary as unstoppable as death itself: the IRS.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>LUKE CAGE:</strong> <strong>POWER MAN, POWERFUL MASTERWORKS!!!</strong></h4>



<p>Marvel’s bulletproof man is back! The Marvel Masterworks proudly present the evolution of the Hero for Hire into his new identity, Power Man. It’s a series of iconic Luke Cage classics featuring the first appearance of Cottonmouth, Cage’s evolving relationship with Claire Temple and action galore! Cage goes toe to toe with Iron Man, battles the villain Power Man for the right to the name and hits the road to uncover the secrets of Security City. Also featuring the debut of Bill Foster as Giant-Man and the one and only Piranha Jones. With stories and art by comic book greats — Wein, Isabella, McGregor, Tuska, Wilson, Pérez and more — these are the stories that defined the Marvel and Netflix icon.</p>

<p>Steve Gerber’s Defenders run comes to its revolutionary conclusion in the latest Marvel Masterworks extravaganza! Gerber consistently broke the boundaries of what a super-hero comic could be and his Headmen saga stands as one of the high points in a celebrated career. From the Elf With a Gun to Bambi and the Bozos, Gerber wove together an unlikely cast with a challenging critique of the era’s culture. His stories would influence a generation of new writers, and with artwork by the stellar team of Sal Buscema and Klaus Janson, Defenders is an indisputable ’70s Marvel masterpiece. And we’ve topped it off with the classic Defenders/Howard the Duck Marvel Treasury Edition team-up. Need we say more? Reserve your copy today.</p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>SWEET CHRISTMAS! LUKE CAGE MAKES IT TO MASTERWORKS!</strong></h4>



<p>Luke Cage burst onto the comics scene in 1972 as the “Hero for Hire.” Equal parts Marvel Method and Blaxploitation boldness, he was a new kind of hero for a new era. Now, the Marvel Masterworks proudly present the complete Luke Cage, Hero for Hire—the historic first title to headline an African-American super hero—in one hardcover volume. Cage’s adventures depicted New York City’s 1970s grit and the plight of its people unlike any other, all while incorporating larger-than-life villains including Black Mariah and Dr. Doom. From Cage’s origin story to his first exploits as the hard-as-steel hero, each issue has been painstakingly restored and collected here in color for very first time.</p>

<p>The Dynamic Defenders, comicdom’s #1 non-team, are back and they’ve never been better! Hulk, Dr. Strange, Sub-Mariner, Valkyrie and Nighthawk join up with Luke Cage, Daredevil and Son of Satan to take on the likes of the Wrecking Crew, Satannish and Asmodeus.</p>



<p>Then, spinning out of a storyline in Marvel Two-In-One, comes Steve Gerber! Deconstructing genre conventions and adding a healthy dose of absurdity, Gerber’s innovative Defenders run turned the expectations of readers on their heads, so suitably we’re including the original Atlas Era appearances of the Headmen: Gorilla Man, Jerold Morgan and Chondu the Mystic! Topped off with a Giant-Size battle royale with the Grandmaster and a Squadron Sinister rematch, this one is a Marvel Masterworks if there ever was!</p>
