Touted as “the greatest murder mystery in Marvel Comics history,” Original Sin is the comic book publisher’s big event for this Summer, so get ready to jump on with Original Sin #1, which was released today.
Written by Jason Aaron with art by Mike Deodato Jr., the events of this 8-issue miniseries are prompted by the death of The Watcher Uatu (I know, that’s crazy!). Yes, this is the Watcher, the very first one, the space-god who’s been watching over Earth from the Moon for billions of years – now dead. You can imagine this would stir up some trouble within the Marvel Universe and of course, the superheroes are on the case!
Marvel has released a trailer for the series. Watch the trailer here below, and check out the full synopsis for the miniseries, too.
Who Shot The Watcher? The Watcher, the mysterious space-god who’s been watching us from the moon for as long as we can remember… is dead. Thus begins the greatest murder mystery in Marvel Comics history. As Nick Fury leads the heroes of the Marvel Universe in an investigation, other forces are marshaling as well and other questions are arising. Why is Black Panther gathering a secret team of his own, including Emma Frost, the Punisher and Dr. Strange? Who is the Unseen? What was the Original Sin? What was stolen from the Watcher’s lair? And most importantly, who now holds the Marvel Universe’s darkest secrets in the palm of their hand?
ORIGINAL SIN is available May 7th in comic shops, the Marvel Comics app (for iPhone®, iPad®, iPad Touch® & Android devices) and online in the Marvel Digital Comics Shop. Trailer Voice-Over by Jesse Falcon.
