    Uber HC (2013 Avatar) 1A-1ST

    Enhanced Edition

    Volume 1 - 1st printing. Collects Uber (2013 Avatar) #0-5.

    Written by Kieron Gillen. Art by Canaan White.

    1945. Germany is in ruins. The war in the west can only be days away from ending. Threats of "wunderwaffen" to be unleashed by the dying Reich have become laughable.

    There are no miracle weapons here. It's over. It has to be over. It's not. There've been stories which have mixed enhanced humans and World War II before. There's never been one like this.

    See super beings in a whole new light as Gillen presents an epic original series that not only rewrites history, it redefines the genre! Uber Vol 1 debuts in monstrously huge fashion, with a collection that goes far beyond the story. This epic tome contains Uber #0-5, the first story arc, for the first 176 pages. But then we Enhance that with 160 pages of additional material! From behind-the-scenes interviews, scores of pages of the original pencil art, notes from the writer on development of the story, to an epic cover gallery, this is not to be missed. But all that extra material is only available right here, this edition of 5000 copies, and the Remarqued edition of 350 copies offered this month, are the only editions Previews will offer. Then it's gone.

    This Enhanced HC will not be reprinted. Uber Vol 1 collection in paperback will be released in 2014, with the full 176 pages of story. But none of the special back matter offered only here.

    This is also a Direct Market Exclusive, the Uber Vol 1 Enhanced Hardcover edition will not be available in book stores or on Amazon!

    Hardcover, 336 pages, full color.

    NOTE: Limited to 5,000 copies.

    Cover price $34.99.

    Uber TPB (2014-2018 Avatar) 2-1ST

    Volume 2 - 1st printing. Collects Uber (2013 Avatar) #6-11.

    Written by Kieron Gillen. Art by Canaan White.

    KIERON GILLEN redefined the alternate history comic by radically revitalizing the super soldier in the pages of Uber.

    This sweeping war epic shows all the grime, and fear, and blood of enhanced soldier warfare in an unrelenting World War II drama. The first blow in the battle between English and German Ubers has been wrought and neither nation walks away whole.

    The war rages on in the Pacific Theatre as Japanese Kamikaze pilots attempt to drive the US forces out while delivering devastating losses to the enemy naval fleet. But the tides of war change as the Japanese deploy their own enhanced soldiers and the Germans deliver their devastating secret attack.

    Softcover, 160 pages, full color.

In ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN ANNUAL #1, Spidey goes toe-to-toe with some old foes - and winds up with a new girlfriend! Who is she? Let's just say she has a familiar face. And in THE ULTIMATES ANNUAL #1, if you thought the Ultimates were the only team S.H.I.E.L.D. was creating - you were wrong! Get ready for the next wave of super-soldiers designed to protect America's vital interests. But is this all Director Nick Fury is up to, or is there much more to this ultra-clandestine program?

In ULTIMATE X-MEN ANNUAL #2, Dazzler - Alison Blaire, former X-Man - has awakened from her coma only to discover her life is in deadly peril! And even her former fellow X-Men may be powerless to save her as a betrayal within the ranks has left them shell-shocked. In ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN ANNUAL #2, Punisher and Daredevil return! While Foggy Nelson offers Spidey some legal advice, Police Captain Jean DeWolfe gives him some other advice - on how to take down the Ultimate Kangaroo! Will Peter Parker be able to navigate his way through this all-action moral maze, or will Punisher just shoot him instead? And in THE ULTIMATES ANNUAL #2, as the Ultimates clear the wreckage from the recent attack on the United States, a monstrous evil from the past rises from the ashes to launch an attack when America is at her weakest. And with the ranks of the Ultimates severely depleted, all that stands in the path of the long-thought-dead bio-fanatic Arnim Zola is the indomitable Sentinel of Liberty, Captain America, and Sam Wilson, the high-flying Falcon!
