Fraction is going to explain the MU?!?!
I thought I could ignore this book but It seems he's taking that Fear Itself 'magic' and bringing it to the MU at large.
Maybe it is all, zzzzzzzzz......

Nul looks generic and boring. The Incredible Hulk with tusks.
Pass
Is Doctor Strange the David Carradine of Marvel?'You know, Doctor Strange studied the martial arts as well.' I immediately saw somebody doing kung fu -- but with Steve Ditko hands. That was the missing piece,![]()
Fraction is ambitious if not anything on his Grand Unification stuff.
Johnny Storm was dead; who is this resurrected Johnny Storm?
"Here, hold my Annihilus…" Johnny Storm, Fantastic Four #601
Excited to see Doc and the Defenders getting a book.
Really bugged about William S. Burroughs constantly being brought up. That is not Doc's mindset. Neither is the street magician angle either.
I'll wait and hope I'm surprised though.
I am sort of glad Fraction mentions the Illuminati thing with Dr. Strange, as I truly would have thought Bendis could have at least mentioned it when it came to the World War Hulk event.![]()
The more I read about this book the more I like it! Cant wait to read this and the art looks great.
this is looking better and better!
I likehe blue coloring on Dr. Strange's shirt in Dodson's character design, much more than the red. It makes it a variation on his old Sorcerer Supreme costume and breaks up the visual repetition of red/black with Red She-Hulk.
Fraction has certainly got my attention. I hope he can keep The Defenders afloat as a mainstay in the MU.
I think I'm in for the first Hulk/Nul arc, at least.
New Avengers, Morbius The Living Vampire, Scarlet Spider, Iron Man, Fearless Defenders, Fantastic Four, Deadpool Killogy, Savage Wolverine, Wolverine, Uncanny X-Men & X-Force, Cable & X-Force, Gambit
I am not sure the marvel verse needs Grand Unification but there is no way fraction should be allowed to write it. Think it up maybe, actually write it hell no, besides we know the answers to all questions he is saying he will answer anyway which means we can expect retcons. The only one without a in universe explanation is why so many heroes in NYC but we all know the out of u answers.
