A Multiversal War Erupts Over 2099's Future In The End 2099!

The fate of 2099, Marvel’s iconic dystopian future, will be decided this December in THE END 2099, a five-issue limited series by returning 2099 creative team, writer Steve Orlando and artist Ibraim Roberson. Announced to retailers last week at San Diego Comic-Con, the saga will star the iconic heroes who have shaped 2099 storytelling since it began over 30 years ago as well as more recent breakout 2099 characters. In a war staged by Mephisto and the terrifying entity known as ABYSSUS on a distant planet, the heroes of 2099 must fight for their very existence in a secret war against an army pulled from other alternate timelines, including familiar faces from legendary Marvel storylines. Their enemies will also hail from a newly-emerging reality—the all-new 3099!

THE MARVEL WORLD OF TOMORROW FACES ITS LAST DAYS IN AN ERA-DEFINING TALE!

From the ashes of the Age of Heroes, a new generation of vigilantes, like Spider-Man 2099, Nova 2099 and Red Hulk 2099, emerged in the dystopia that followed to forge a bright new future—a future that has come to an end in the face of ABYSSUS, a horrifying fusion of a KNULL-INFECTED GALACTUS!

As the Devourer in Black descends upon the world, a deal is struck with the devil—literally—as Mephisto bets the fate of 2099 in a brutal battle of survival, pitting the warriors of 2099 against fan-favorite characters from across the multiverse--like Age of Apocalypse’s Wolverine, Cyclops and Marvel Girl from Chris Claremont and John Byrne’s era of Uncanny X-Men, House of M’s Wanda Maximoff and so many more—each battling for their own universe’s survival! It’s hero against hero in this no-holds barred war against extinction! As Marvel’s heroes past and present duke it out, only one thing is certain: the future is coming, and it’s arriving in the form of… SPIDER-MAN 3099??!!

“Every time the door to 2099 opens, it's not just an honor--it's an adventure!” Orlando said. “This is the one for it all, folks. With all existing 2099 timelines united into the one, true, Universe-2099, the stakes are higher than ever when Abyssus, the Devourer in Black, comes to dinner! But not all is as it seems! Mephisto, 2099's dark dealmaker, pivots from annihilation to a war of champions--with 2099's greatest battling Abyssus' finest, plucked from the multiverse!”

On choosing the cast, Orlando explained, “Putting together a team not just from 2099, but from all of Marvel's banquet of realities, was the best kind of challenge--each warrior from the multiverse reflects a warrior from 2099 they're meant to take down. And each warrior is a moment to celebrate some of Marvel's most iconic realities and timelines. And best of all? In the spirit of Marvel's greatest events, we're debuting a whole new Spider-Man. It's easy to say this is a spider like no other, but Spider-Man 3099 really will introduce folks to a whole new generation of heroism. Like the spider itself is a keystone species, Spider-Man 3099 is a keystone hero--the first hero in history, as far as he knows! He's never even met another Spider-Man...but meeting Miguel O'Hara will change his life forever!”
