“Apparently, Secret Wars is even bigger than we thought it was,” says Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso in a press release. “To help Jonathan [Hickman] and Esad [Ribic] conclude this epic event as big and bombastically as it started, we are adding an extra issue.That means one more month of the suspense, action and game-changing storytelling that fans and retailers have been clamoring for since the final incursion started.”
While Secret Wars #9 will conclude the series and set up the All-New All-Different Marvel relaunch, its addition will not derail the October debut of Marvel’s new publishing line.
“This extra issue will not affect any of the new launches as part of All-New, All-Different Marvel,” says David Gabriel, Marvel SVP Sales & Marketing. “But there might be a surprise or two left over from Battleworld you weren’t expecting. In fact, like the original Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars, some of those puzzle pieces will hit the Marvel Universe before the event concludes. But if you want to see how they all fit together, you don’t want to miss these last few issues.”
