Avengers vs. Attack on Titan is REAL
Marvel Comics Senior VP, CB Cebulski, has announced that the Avengers will be fighting Attack on Titans‘ titular titans in a Japanese comic book later this month.
Cebulski described the genesis of this unexpected crossover via his Twitter feed, saying, “I loved Marvel Team-Up and What If? as a kid. I would spend hours dreaming up my own crossovers & alternate reality stories. As I got more into manga, I always imagined how cool it would be for the Marvel characters to cross into the pages of manga worlds. If you ever wondered, ‘What if the titans from Hajime Isayama’s Attack on Titan attacked the Marvel universe?’ you’ll find out soon!”

Comic Book News, In Brief
Dan Slott (author of my all-time favorite She-Hulk book) and Mike Allred (artist of one of my all-time favorite X-books, X-Statix) and are teaming up for a new Silver Surfer series. (You guessed it: One of my all-time favorite comic book characters!)
While this sounds an awful lot like Marvel is tapping my REM sleep, robbing me of my dream comics, I’m not planning on pressing any charges just yet. So long as the series ends up being as all-caps AMAZING as it oughta be, we’re cool. But if it starts slipping into guest writers and fill-in artists before the first TPB is complete, I’m calling on the combined powers of Freddy Krueger, Morpheus and Li’l Nemo of Slumberland to take back what’s rightfully mine.
