Infinity Crusade #1
"Epiphany," the explosive first chapter of Infinity Crusade (2008), launches Jim Starlin’s cosmic-scale saga with a bold premise: the Goddess unveils her vision of galactic salvation through the mysterious Cosmic Egg, leaving heroes scrambling to understand where their allies have vanished. As Captain America, Vision, and Iron Man follow Aurora—now reverting to her Jean-Marie identity—on a desperate journey to Paradise Omega, they confront the Goddess’s vast mind-control scheme and are cast out, seeking answers from the Watcher on the moon. Ron Lim’s dynamic interior art, inked by Al Milgrom and colored by Ian Laughlin, brings the grandeur and tension of this pivotal moment to life, while Ron Lim and Al Milgrom’s cover captures the haunting intensity of the Goddess’s arrival.
