Siege Sells Out
Marvel is pleased to announce that Siege #1, Siege: Embedded #1, and
Avengers: The Initiative #31 (the Siege Prologue tie in) have all sold
out at Diamond (though copies may still be available at retail level).
An event seven years in the making, Siege is shaking Marvel Universe to
its very core! It all starts in Avengers: The Initiative #31, penned by
Christos N. Gage and illustrated by Rafa Sandoval, when Norman Osborn
recruits the newest member of the Cabal-Taskmaster! Then, in Siege #1,
the superstar team of award winning writer Brian Michael Bendis and
acclaimed artist Olivier Coipel bring readers the first phase of the
massive war against Asgard! In Siege: Embedded #1, written by Brian Reed
and penciled by Chris Samnee, readers are invited to view Siege from the
perspective of journalists on both sides of the conflict!
Critics and fans agree-Siege is a hit!
"Siege #1 works incredibly well, building off the layered tapestry
Marvel has woven over the past several years while retaining focus and a
sense of purpose that kicks off Marvel's 2010 with style. I'm truly
looking forward to what's around the corner and what new developments
this will lead to in the coming year."-Richard George, IGN.Com
"Siege thrives on the sheer pulp insanity of a lot of its concepts...
thanks to Marvel's commitment to crafting a coherent universe for its
characters, signals the start of a major shift in its status quo."--
Benjamin Birdie, ComicBookResources.
"Coipel just knocks it out of the park... in terms of pacing and above
all action, this is certainly my favorite Bendis-penned megaevent
yet"-David Pepose, Newsarama.Com

Marvel Print Store (http://prints.
