Marvel Comics Reveals Cover Art And First Details For February's Midnight Universe Comics

Marvel's new Midnight Universe began earlier this month, and according to a Marvel Comics press release, "fans are already hooked on this bold new line that reimagines the Marvel mythos through a terrifying new lens."
It's hard to dispute that, and with more than one million copies ordered collectively, the Midnight Universe had a massive debut. Now, "the nightmare is only beginning," as Marvel reveals the chilling cloaked covers for all three #5 issues, arriving in February.
From horrifying new monsters at Oscorp and the grotesque transformation of the Fantastic Four to further revelations of how some of the world's most iconic mutants confronted the vampiric spread, these issues look set to push the Midnight Universe into even darker territory.
Jonathan Hickman was recently asked about turning fan-favourite mutants into vampires in Midnight X-Men . He revealed, "My favourite thing about starting this story in media res is that we get to have a book that takes place in the past and in the present as it moves into the future. It's really about combining several mythologies into one story."
"While in the first issue we met several characters who are vampires and several who are not, it doesn't mean that we're not going to eventually see their story from the other side," the writer continued. "I suppose the most obvious question is Storm, but there we're winking at previous X-Men lore before taking things in a wild new direction."
Check out what's to come from the Midnight line in February below, and stay tuned for updates on each of these new series as we have them.
