Before Jonathan Hickman, Iban Coello, and Federico Vicentini's 'Imperial' #2 hits stores, visit Marvel Unlimited to read the first issue of this game-changing cosmic event for free!

The face of Marvel’s cosmic order is about to change.

In IMPERIAL (2025) by Jonathan Hickman, Iban Coello, and Federico Vicentini, a string of assassinations forces the Galactic Council to convene, summoning such empires as the Shi’ar, the Kree-Skrulls, and the Spartoi to address it. The intrigue, mysteries, and war that follow will irrevocably alter the Marvel Universe’s cosmic order—but who will come out on top?

Find out starting in IMPERIAL (2025) #1, which is available for free on Marvel Unlimited for a limited time!
