FORTNITE X MARVEL: ZERO WAR, the highly anticipated comic mini-series where the Marvel Universe will collide with the world of Fortnite is set to kick off next month! Written by veteran Marvel writer Christos Gage and Epic Games’ Chief Creative Officer Donald Mustard and drawn by artist Sergio Davíla, FORTNITE X MARVEL: ZERO WAR is a five-issue saga that will leave a tremendous impact on both universes, and right now, fans can get their first look at issue three!
Coming to comic shops in August, FORTNITE X MARVEL: ZERO WAR #3 will see Marvel and Fortnite heroes crash-land in the iconic Savage Land as the quest for the missing Zero Shard continues!
The issue will see the return of an unlikely ally that brings Iron Man and The Foundation closer to their goal. Meanwhile, it’s an all-out brawl against Stegron and his dinosaur hybrids in the Savage Land as the hunt for the Zero Shard heats up! But Stegron’s not the only villain interested in the Zero Shard…
In an interview with IGN about the series, Gage explained:
“There’ll be a few things you see in both the game and the comic—mostly in our final issue. But for the most part, what happens in the game and what happens in the comic are different fronts in the same war. Some questions that players might have about the game are answered in the comic, and vice versa, though neither are required to follow the story in the other.”
Each first print issue of FORTNITE X MARVEL: ZERO WAR #3 contains a redeemable code to unlock a bonus digital cosmetic in Fortnite!
