If you’re anything like us (or me), you’re hella excited about Stan Lee/Paul Cornell’s Soldier Zero. Heck, anything new involving Stan Lee is pretty exciting, but put Paul Cornell into the mix and you’ve got Multiversity employee’s jumping through hoops for it.
It’s with that in mind that I very excitedly give you a five page preview of Soldier Zero, and a look at his origin story. It pops in right in the middle of a scene, and does – as I say – show you the origin. If you want to wait until the issue comes out, I’ll understand… but seriously, just look behind the cut and check it out! It looks damn good, and I’m excited to get my paws on the issue as is.
Check behind the cut for a five page preview of the issue. The book comes out in October by Paul Cornell with art by Javier Pina from BOOM! Studios.
