Brian Michael Bendis, Andrea Sorrentino, and Dave Stewart examine the life (and death) of the Master of Magnetism in an eight-issue prestige format series this February.
Magneto: End of Days presents Erik Lehnsherr’s (or if your prefer Magnus or Max Eisenhardt) past, present, and future, with each issue focusing on a different era in his life.
“Magneto is one of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s best creations. I’ve been able to write this character over the years in books like House of M, Avengers Vs. X-Men, and Uncanny X-Men, and I’ve loved every second of it,” Bendis said. “This time, we’re going to delve into his world in very curated unique chapters from every era of the Marvel Universe. And I’m reuniting with some my favorite comic creators—Andrea and Dave together is a special event in itself, and Tom Brevoort is responsible for some of my best moments at Marvel. We’ve been working on this book for many months and it’s just beautiful.”
“Working on such an iconic character like Magneto, with all that he represents for Marvel history, has been both an exciting and an intimidating challenge,” Sorrentino shared. “I’m drawing one of the most popular and beloved comic characters, who has been penned and drawn by some of the best artists in the industry, but that encourages me to try to experiment with layouts and find new ways to show put his powers and personality on the page. I’m so excited to work with Brian on another series after our time together on Old Man Logan and I can’t wait for readers to see what Brian, Dave and myself have been working on these last few months.”
