Tom Brevoort, Marvel’s senior vice president, has described “Secret Empire” #0 as detailing “the worst day of the Marvel Universe.”

“Where not one, not two, but three separate events break out all at once,” he told ABC News. “Cap, as head of S.H.I.E.L.D., is able to mobilize forces to all three of those situations. And those three situations represent Hydra’s first move. It comes off the blocks explosively right from the get-go.”

Thank god this is only a fantasy comic!

Secret Empire #0 and #1 hit in April.

What if your greatest ally was secretly your greatest enemy? What if the most trustworthy, stalwart hero history has ever known has been planning in secret a massive betrayal? That time is now. And you won’t be ready for…SECRET EMPIRE! Before the premier comic launch of 2017, superstar creators Nick Spencer and Daniel Acuña toss the every hero of the Marvel Universe into a fiery crucible as Captain America’s master plan is cast into action with April’s SECRET EMPIRE #0!

The Marvel Universe is under siege from within! Captain America, secretly a true believer in the cause of Hydra, has turned his back on the Super Hero community. Using the trust and respect he has gained over the years he has ascended to a position where he can enacts Hydra’s ideals. The death of Jack Flag, the trial of Maria Hill, the second Civil War, the alien Chitauri Queen. All of the dominos of Captain America’s plan have been laid out – and it will take only the slightest push to set them into action!

“Wherever you find favor within the Marvel Universe, SECRET EMPIRE is a story for you,” says Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso.  “When the world’s most respected and trusted super hero, Captain America, assumes ultimate power and goes bad, it serves as a rallying cry for all the heroes.  Avengers, X-Men, Guardians, Inhumans and street-level heroes unite to fight for the fate – and soul – of the Marvel Universe.”

Now, the Avengers, the Champions, the Defenders, the Guardians of the Galaxy, the X-Men and more will be tested. As Hydra’s grip tightens around the Marvel Universe, the heroes stand at the precipice of an unprecedented challenge. How will they Marvel Universe cope with this shattering betrayal by the most trusted among them? The secret is out this April in SECRET EMPIRE #0!

    Marvel is like the USA -regardless of ‘republican’ or ‘democrat’ views, it does not exist any more. We do not matter -or do you think we matter while Marvel has people pay going on $4.+ dollars for their over priced crap that is for advetising space and b.s. “brand identity” pre-programmed comic stories???

    Remember, what we call sequential / “comic books”, Marvel calls that *over priced pamphlets with advertisement space*. We are ‘Americans’/consumers, we hate on eachother, sit in traffic, outsource jobs, have no long term savings, no interest in improving ‘America’/strip malls, and we still pay going on $4.+ for Marvel ‘comics’ -what do we do that makes us at all “matter”? Stop spending $$$ on Marvel.

  2. Why would the X-Men even be involved in this mess? Unless Cap is up to another genocide. Last time someone tried that against them he stood by her side anyway; and he didn’t even need to be a Nazi to do that
