Book Description
Civil War is encompassing the entire Marvel Universe, and the effects of the war are being felt by every hero, villain and civilian. In Civil War: Choosing Sides, five stories shine a spotlight on the wildcards and impact players whose part in the Civil War has yet to be told - including Daredevil/Iron Fist, U.S.Agent, the Irredeemable Ant-Man, Venom and even Howard the Duck? Then in Winter Soldier: Winter Kills, James Buchanan Barnes, Captain America's one-time partner Bucky, faces his first Christmas of the 21st century - and the truth of the terrible things he was forced to do as the Winter Soldier. And with Cap caught in a conflict he can neither take a side of - or understand - what moves can he make to try to redeem himself? Later, in Civil War: The Return, two of the universe's greatest heroes are confronted with pasts they can't leave behind in two heart-rendering tales. On Earth, the Sentry confronts his inner demons as the shadows of past and future battles tear him apart. Within The Negative Zone, the walls of 42 are pulled back to reveal the return of one of the Marveldom's greatest heroes. And in She-Hulk, Civil War threatens the rights of every American super hero. So whose side will Marvel's top superhuman lawyer fight for? And how can she possibly choose, when she feels one way as She-Hulk, and another as Jen Walters? Collects Winter Soldier: Winter Kills, Civil War: Choosing Sides, Civil War: The Return and She-Hulk #8
Reader Reviews
Civil War: Marvel Universe collects various issues and one-shots taking place during and after the cataclysmic events of Marvel's Civil War mega event, and features a variety of writing and artist talent as well. Beginning with She-Hulk, who finds herself partnered up with former New Warriors members Justice and Rage, who seek to clear their deceased team mates name's in the wake of the Stamford tragedy. Next up is Choosing Sides, which focuses on various wild cards in the Civil War, including Venom, Ant-Man, Iron Fist, the U.S. Agent, and Howard the Duck (yes, you read that right, Howard the Duck!) and the roles they plan to play. Civil War: The Return focuses on the Sentry and his decision in supporting Tony "Iron Man" Stark in the pro-registration act, as well as detailing the return of Captain Mar-vel (no Shazam needed) to the Marvel universe. Finally, Civil War: The Initiative details the aftermath of the Civil War as Tony Stark begins his plans for organizing and controling every superhero team on the continent as a new team rises from the ashes of Alpha Flight, and the new team of Thunderbolts (featuring Venom and Bullseye) make their debut. The TPB features a variety of writers including Warren Ellis, Brian Michael Bendis, Paul Jenkins, Robert Kirkman, Dan Slott, and Michael Avon Oeming among others; while the artists featured include the great Marc Silvestri, Tom Raney, Leinil Francis Yu, and Scott Kolins among others as well. All in all, though it has a bit of an uneven feel and some plot holes (to be filled by the other Civil War tie-ins), Civil War: Marvel Universe is a great companion piece to Marvel's mega event, and is definitely worth picking up for fanboys and Civil War collectors alike.
