We may have jumped the gun a bit and spoiled this one early, but today Marvel has announced the return of the Annihilators in Annihilators: Earthfall.
The story will feature the Annihilators coming to Earth as the Marvel Cosmic U finally collides with the regular Marvel U. Something described no more than “a vital mission” brings the Annihilators to our area, and what entails is a “clash of jurisdiction” as what is good for Earth might not be good for the Galaxy, or vice versa.
Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning will be on the book as always, and the title is designed as a jumping point as the Annihilators need to be “introduced” to the regular Marvel heroes, so if you haven’t been reading now is certainly the time. The book will also feature the return of the Rocket Raccoon and Groot back-up as the two get a TV show and “blow the flark out of stuff.”
Artists on the book will feature Tan Eng Huat on the main story and Timothy Green II returning for the Rocket/Groot back-up.
Look for the title in September.
