Marvel Comics has released a trailer and two teaser posters for the companies latest cross-title comic event: Siege.
The trailer, which you can watch over at Comic Book Resources, offers a retrospective of recent events in the Marvel Universe from Disassembled and Civil War to Secret Invasion and Dark Reign, followed by brand new images from Siege. In a shock conclusion, the trailer ends with a shot of Asgard – the home of Thor and the Norse gods – crashing to earth in flames.
Marvel has also released two new teaser posters. One shows a silhouetted figure flying above a city while people below look up in fear. The second poster reads: “Who is Norman Osborn’s secret weapon?” It shows Osborn sat below images of Odin, The Beyonder, Scarlet Witch, Molecule Man, Thanos, Nate Grey and Mephisto.
Siege follows on from events taking place in Marvel’s Dark Reign: The List titles and begins proper in the pages of Siege: The Cabal, released on December 2nd, continuing throughout the beginning of 2010. No other info on Siege has been released apart from the (vague) solicitation:
