Marvel's 2099 universe gets its launch in Marvel Age #117, starting with a cover by Paul Ryan. The big overview article reveals the four launch titles with quotes from editor Joey Cavalieri, my old coworker from DC Comics.
Also in this issue, there's an up close look at the Marvel Masterpieces trading card set with art by Joe Jusko. Plus a bunch of Marvel titles tie into a story that include calls for donations to UNICEF.
And Marvel introduces another batch of characters with the supernatural series Nightstalkers.
