Secret Wars




The Most Ambitious Marvel Event Ever Published!

From visionary writer Jonathan Hickman and legendary artist Esad Ribić.

When every universe in the Multiverse collides, only one can survive. The Marvel Universe and Ultimate Universe face their final Incursion—and from the wreckage emerges Battleworld, a patchwork planet forged from the shattered remnants of countless realities.

Heroes and villains from across reality must navigate strange new domains where familiar faces return in shocking forms. The Avengers, X-Men, Spider-Man, and Fantastic Four face impossible choices as God Emperor Doom reshapes existence itself. But as rebellion stirs in this fractured world, one question remains: what comes after the end of everything?

VISIONARY. DEFINITIVE. UNMISSABLE.

This is the sweeping epic where the entire Marvel Universe faces its end—and what comes after. Every hero you know must make impossible choices as reality itself collapses, leading to one final battle for all of existence. Perfect for readers who love massive, universe-spanning stories that are instantly accessible for all readers.
