Marvel #4
"Overture" delivers a striking return to Marvel’s Atlas roots, spotlighting Dr. Droom as he confronts a wave of colossal, forgotten monsters from the 1950s and '60s—creatures once glimpsed in titles like Tales of Suspense and Journey into Mystery. With bold, dynamic art by Hilary Barta and Doug Rice and a moody, atmospheric color palette by Wesley Wong, the issue channels the mythic scale of Marvel’s early monster era. Alex Ross’s legendary cover art captures the grandeur of the moment, making this a must-have for fans of vintage Marvel’s most surreal and epic moments.
