Warhammer 40,000: Marneus Calgar

THE WARHAMMER 40,000 SAGA IS COMING TO MARVEL! In the bleak darkness of the far future, there is only war. In a galaxy engulfed in endless conflict, Marneus Calgar, legendary Grandmaster of the Ultramarines Chapter, leads his elite Space Marines against the greatest threats to humanity. Screenwriter Kieron Gillen (Uncanny X-Men, Journey into Mystery, The Wicked + The Divine) plunges readers headfirst into the story of 40K, introducing them to the previously untold origin story of Marne Calgar - from his beginnings on Nova Thulium and the campaigns of the Black Crusades to the unraveling of the mystery of the Black Altar. Then a deadly threat from Calgar's past resurfaces to threaten the presence of the Ultramar system! The comic is full of new and fan-favorite characters, and offers so many more mysteries besides the captivating look at the origins of the Space Marines that they couldn't fit in Thunderhawk. A must-read for longtime enthusiasts - and the perfect primer for those entering the WARHAMMER 40,000 universe for the first time!
