The Marvel Universe is on the brink of an all-out intergalactic war in Jonathan Hickman’s Imperial, and things are about to get even crazier! After political assassinations sparked chaos, major cosmic players, including the Intergalactic Empire of Wakanda, Spartax, the Kree-Skrull Alliance, and the Shi’ar Empire, are clashing, but it seems there are unseen forces pulling the strings.
In Imperial #3, launching on August 20th, we’ll catch up with some familiar faces in precarious situations. Wiccan and Hulkling, last seen after the attack on the Galactic Council in Imperial #1, are now adrift in space, fighting for survival.
Meanwhile, Nova, Star-Lord, and Shuri are on a critical mission. They’re heading to Xandar, the former homeworld of the Nova Corps that was destroyed in 2006’s Annihilation. Richard Rider is leading his allies to the Xandarian Worldmind, a vast cosmic database. What secrets does it hold, and what answers will it reveal in this turbulent time?
After Imperial #3, the cosmic conflict explodes into new fronts with a series of Imperial War one-shots, including Imperial War: Black Panther, Imperial War: She-Hulk, Imperial War: Exiles, Imperial War: Nova Centurion, and Imperial War: Imperial Guardians. These stories will set the stage for the universe-shattering conclusion in Imperial #4, hitting stands on October 29th.
Get ready for an epic cosmic saga as Imperial continues to reshape the Marvel Universe! Are you excited to see Nova return to Xandar?
