About the series
In 2013, Marvel launched this four-issue series written by Jonathan Hickman, a pivotal chapter in his broader cosmic saga. Illustrated by a powerhouse team of Mike Deodato, Steve Epting, and Valerio Schiti, the story brings together Black Panther, Iron Man, Doctor Strange, Mister Fantastic, and Black Bolt as they form a secret, morally complex council to confront threats too dangerous for the wider superhero community. This series matters as the foundational text for Hickman's "Time Runs Out" storyline, redefining the Illuminati concept with high-stakes, philosophical conflict.
