Marvel 1602

Gaiman's Marvel 1602 is a graphic novel set in an alternate reality that seems like a combination between historical and fantasy. Superheros from this time period take on different pesonas in this adventure. The identities become known the farther you delve into this graphic read. Javier works to find people with superhuman powers and provide a safe place for them to live in peace while another group is seeking to hunt them down at the end of Queen Elizabeth's reign all while a eminent storm is brewing. I won't divulge who will prevail in this Marvel creation, but those who are fans of Marvel superhero graphic novels are sure to enjoy this creation by Gaiman. It's fun figuring out which superheroes are the characters are as the story unfolds.
Those who like this graphic novel may also like Astonishing X-Men Volume 3 Torn by Joss Whedon.
