Civil War is once again coming to America. But don’t worry, we’re talking about the fun kind, as Marvel will release Civil War: Unmasked, a five-issue series looking back on the classic conflict.
Written by Christos Gage with art by Edgar Salazar, the anthology series will offer “unseen stories” focusing on key players in the original series, before, during, and after the conflict. Those include Iron Man, Spider-Man, Goliath, Tigra, and Captain America. Sadly we aren’t getting a Penance issue, but there’s always Civil War: Unmasked II to look forward to.
“In 2006, I was a rookie comic book writer when a short delay in the production of the epic Civil War event limited series led to me being offered the one-shot Iron Man/Captain America: Casualties of War,” Gage said via press release. “It was my first really high profile project at Marvel, a big hit, and 20 years later, they still haven’t managed to get rid of me! So it’s a thrill and an honor to revisit that troubled time with CIVIL WAR: UNMASKED, in which I have the privilege of joining with brilliant artist Edgar Salazar and trend-setting original Civil War colorist Morry Hollowell to reveal never-before-told stories from that milestone event!”
Interestingly, the action kicks off tying into another classic Marvel event as, “It begins with an urgent mission from Bishop that takes Tony Stark into the Days of Future Past timeline, where the revelation of the apocalyptic future changes everything Tony thought he knew about the consequences of the Superhuman Registration Act.”
