Visto en Previews: Marvel – Julio 2011

Llegamos un poco tarde con el Visto en Previews para Julio 2011, pero ninguno de estos títulos ha salido a la venta aún (donde la palabra clave es “aún” sinónimo de “ya casi”). Así que estamos técnicamente a tiempo.

Y este mes comienza el zafarrancho con los mutantes. Aquí incluyo dos de las portadas variantes que refleja que los xmen tendrán que escoger bando.

The X-Men event of the decade starts here! It’s never been a more dangerous time to be a mutant. Even with their numbers at a record low, the world refuses to trust mutantkind…and after a mutant-triggered international incident, anti-mutant hatred hits new heights. Of course it’s at this moment, when the mutant race needs most to stand together, that a split begins that will tear apart the very foundation of the X-Men. From superstar writer and Marvel Architect Jason Aaron and a full roster of comics’ top artists, this is an X-tale that will reverberate for years to come! Come October, the X-Men landscape will be irreparably changed.

La gran mayoría de series en Marvel están ligadas al evento de Fear Itself este mes. Esto significa que han suspendido sus historias normales y están dedicadas acomodar a sus personajes al pleito con los representantes de la Serpiente que andan con martillos. Lo bueno es que no han agregado mini-series adicionales. Pero la mayoría de historias no se ven muy interesantes. Y esta en particular la seleccionamos porque es La Portada Fetiche del mes! Les apuesto que buen porcentaje de las ventas estará motivada por ella, sin importar la historia.
