This is a comic I stumbled across and was lucky enough to have a friend who owned it.
If you are a Marvel fan, Marvel period, read this.
A quick synopsis without spoilers: A rift in time and space has brought about the time of Marvels(superheros) 400 years too early, because otherwise everything would not exist. So basically, a world of Marvel superheros set in England during Elizabethan times.
I really enjoyed it. It is different from any other Marvel title out there. Considering it was penned by Sandman(Vertigo) creator Neil Gaiman.

Dude. Screw that. I'm currently busy trying to keep up with the Marvel Cival War.
Though, I have heard some good things about 1602...

1602 is a short read. It is an eight issue release that goes quick. There are two sequels to the series; 1602: The New World(where the introduce Lord Iron) and The Fantastick Four(which follows our favorite quad through London).
They are both really good.

I've heard of all of those, and from what I've heard Marvel is supposed to be doing something with the Dracula ledgend sometime within the year....this is just a rumor and has not factual basis...but I thought it might be interesting ^_^
