Imperial War: Imperial Guardians

Marvel’s Imperial War: Imperial Guardians launched in 2025, a cosmic conflict series written primarily by Dan Abnett and Jonathan Hickman, with art by Cory Smith and Luca Maresca. This initial issue sets the stage for a sprawling space opera, expanding the publisher’s galactic mythology through the lens of a new generation of protectors. It matters as a fresh entry point for readers drawn to high-stakes, politically charged superheroics.
