About the series
In 2003, Neil Gaiman transported Marvel’s iconic heroes and villains to a fantastical, alternate 17th century, where the dawn of superhumans coincides with the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. Drawn by Andy Kubert and featuring a memorable visual contribution from Steve Ditko, this eight-issue miniseries reimagines familiar characters within a rich historical tapestry of political intrigue and mystical menace. A masterful blend of period drama and superhero mythology, Marvel 1602 stands as a singular, standalone epic that explores the timeless nature of heroism itself.
