The original CIVIL WAR went on to become one of Marvel’s best-selling collections and the inspiration behind sequels, films, video games, and more. CIVIL WAR: UNMASKED celebrates its legacy by recapturing the exciting spirit of the era and shedding light on its most historic developments, from Iron Man and Captain America’s morally complex feud to Spider-Man’s shocking unmasking. An anniversary series two decades in the making, the sagas will be packed with twists and surprises, including ones that will impact present-day storytelling.
On his personal connection to CIVIL WAR, Gage explained, “In 2006, I was a rookie comic book writer when a short delay in the production of the epic CIVIL WAR event limited series led to me being offered the one-shot IRON MAN/CAPTAIN AMERICA: CASUALTIES OF WAR. It was my first really high profile project at Marvel, a big hit, and 20 years later, they still haven’t managed to get rid of me! So it’s a thrill and an honor to revisit that troubled time with CIVIL WAR: UNMASKED, in which I have the privilege of joining with brilliant artist Edgar Salazar and trend-setting original CIVIL WAR colorist Morry Hollowell to reveal never-before-told stories from that milestone event!”
