The Fate of the Marvel Universe Falls on Captain America's Shoulders in 'The Will of Doom' #1 and 'Captain America' #6, the Aftermath of 'One World Under Doom'

This December, 'The Will of Doom' #1, a one-shot by Chip Zdarsky and CAFU, explores the aftermath of 'One World Under Doom' and sets the stage for the next era of the Marvel Universe.

The final days of Doctor Doom’s reign have begun.

ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM #7 hit stands this week, and readers witnessed Marvel’s greatest supervillain’s last-ditch effort to maintain power. But while his desperate actions in the event’s closing issues may not save his rule—they will ensure its impact will be felt forever! In the aftermath of Doom’s fall, Marvel’s heroes brace for what’s next this December in THE WILL OF DOOM #1, a special year-ending one-shot by Eisner-nominated writer Chip Zdarsky and superstar artist CAFU.

Then, all eyes turn to Captain America as he leads the charge towards the future of Latveria—and the entire Marvel Universe—in CAPTAIN AMERICA #6, the start of a new chapter of Chip Zdarsky and Valerio Schiti’s run, bringing their recently-launched series to present day with a bang! The arc will also feature art by rising stars Frank Alpizar and Delio Diaz.

Captain America’s mission to restore order in Latveria will be hindered by SALVATION, a new villain with secret ties to the country’s tragic history. As war breaks out, long-hidden machinations of Doctor Doom will be brought to light, uncovering a shocking evolution of Doom’s legacy. Another adversary Captain America finds himself against will be General Thaddeus 'Thunderbolt' Ross, A.K.A. RED HULK! Seeking revenge against Latveria for his imprisonment during ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM, Red Hulk’s involvement will be set up in THE WILL OF DOOM #1, among other upcoming major storylines across Marvel Comics.

CAP RETURNS TO PRESENT DAY FOR AN ALL-NEW ERA! In CAPTAIN AMERICA #6, the aftermath of ONE WORLD UNDER DOOM has brought Latveria to the brink of civil war. Captain America deploys to protect civilians and investigate rumors of a weapons stockpile, and with warring factions tearing the country apart and a team of allies pursuing their own agendas, can Captain America hope to bring peace to Latveria? And is that even what his handlers want?

"A Latveria with Doom in charge is incredibly dangerous. A Latveria without Doom in charge is even worse," Zdarsky explained. "Thunderbolt Ross and Latveria’s new leader, Salvation, have their eyes on Latveria's deadliest secrets, and whoever gets their hands on them will be a threat that will undo the world."

"Between THE WILL OF DOOM and CAPTAIN AMERICA, we’re charting a new course for the Marvel Universe with one simple statement: Doom always has a plan," he teased.

Glimpse this exciting new era with the reveal of Jonas Scharf’s THE WILL OF DOOM #1 cover, Josemaria Casanovas’ CAPTAIN AMERICA #6 variant cover spotlighting SALVATION, and Zdarsky’s CAPTAIN AMERICA #6 variant cover teasing the future of DOOM. Plus, check out a stunning wraparound cover for THE WILL OF DOOM #1 by J. Scott Campbell depicting today’s biggest Marvel stars.
