Marvel Legacy: 10 Things You Need To Know After Issue 1
4. A Cosmic Conflict's Brewing
Marvel Comics
From start to finish, Legacy oozes cosmic Marvel, and it looks as though they'll be coming into play in its wake as well.
We're yet to discover the primary antagonists and protagonists of upcoming war, with Loki having claimed, ostensibly, that his efforts to provoke the Celestial are to save humanity, rather than to destroy it. Then there's Wolverine, who, having picked up the Mind Stone, looks to have a major part to play here too, along with the apparent involvement of Gamora and Ghost Rider.
We're yet to find out just how exactly this'll all play out in the coming weeks and months ahead, but it's certainly a design grand in scale - one that mixes the universe's cosmic elements with some decidedly cosmic-less characters; Ghost Rider and Logan's involvement in the story intimates as such.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
