With stories written by Al Ewing, normally reading the previous stories it uses as foundation is just a bonus, not a requirement. He makes sure to bring readers organically up-to-date with things they should know, so Empyre should be accessible if you want to give it a read.

That's one of the things I like about Ewing, he's a continuity nut but he still makes his stories accessible

Thanks. I have no idea what is going on with this story, or any of the back-stories. I hope everyone enjoys it. It looks like they did some work to research some things.

No that's the Swordsman, it's the classic Celestial Madonna Saga from the 70's

I see. I thought that looked like Mantis. So, is her son a Kree soldier? He kind of looks like one. Are they getting married? Is that Dormammu?

Marvel today released more teasers for their upcoming Empyre storyline.AN UNHOLY ALLIANCEThe Aftermath of the Kree-Skrull War led to an unholy allianceA DESTINY FULFILLEDTHE SAGA OF A YOUNG AVENGER SET THE FINAL STAGECheck out the images below.

From what I remember in the comics Mantis son was some kind of plant looking lifeform. Guess he had some special heritage and powers or something. And that looks like the Swordsman on top of the cake with Mantis. Maybe he was the father of the plant baby. I Think the story im remembering was back in the late 70's. And yes I believe that is Dormamu the devils son in law himself. And I think a Sequoia is a tree too. That would explain the plant life theory. Maybe Groot is the father.

2020 is the year of the Skrulls and Kree......maybe in the movies it will move to this direction as well.
