Marvel's New Heroes Reborn Event Has Nothing to Do With the Original - CBR - Comic Book Resources

Though Heroes Reborn shares a name with a controversial Marvel storyline from the '90s, writer Jason Aaron says that apart from one key detail, his upcoming miniseries is a world apart from the original.

"This story really has nothing whatsoever to do with the original Heroes Reborn event," Aaron told ComicBook.com. "The only similarity is that this is a look into another version of the Marvel Universe, one familiar in some ways, but profoundly and fundamentally changed in others. I'm quite confident in saying it's a world unlike any version of the Marvel U we've ever seen before."

Aaron also discussed how Heroes Reborn spun out of his time writing Avengers and how the Marvel Universe has changed with the Squadron Supreme being its prime heroes. "When Galactus first came to earth, it wasn't the Fantastic Four who were there to face him. When the Green Goblin threw someone to their death from the George Washington Bridge, it wasn't Spider-Man who was there screaming. When a Civil War tore apart the Marvel heroes, it wasn't Iron Man and Captain America who were fighting at its center. Heroes Reborn drops us into the middle of a world where the Marvel landscape has been radically recast and reshuffled, in some ways that I think will be surprising."

Heroes Reborn features radically different versions of Marvel heroes and villains, with Blade being the only person who remembers the world as it was. In addition to the main series, there will also be a collection of one-shots exploring the role of characters such as Peter Parker and the X-Men in this world.

Heroes Reborn #1, by Jason Aaron and Ed McGuinness, goes on sale on May 5 from Marvel Comics.
