Description
See the Silver Surfer on the big screen in Fantastic Four - First Steps, in theatres 25th July, 2025!
Comic-art master Alex Ross offers his dark vision of the Marvel Universe's future!
The saga begins in a world where Plague X has given everyone super-powers, and Reed Richards sets out to cure a calamity he fears he may have caused. Meanwhile, a battle-weary Captain America—the last human alive on an Earth overrun with superhumans—struggles to defeat a horrific new enemy of freedom.
Along with writer Jim Krueger and artist John Paul Leon, Ross breathes life into and gives amazing detail to every facet of the Earth X mythos, exploring the depths and heights of the Marvel Universe, from the roots of its humble beginnings to the peak of its ultimate potential!

About the Author
Painter Alex Ross has been drawing since age 3. After graduating from the prestigious American Academy of Art, Ross honed his craft as a storyboard artist before entering the comics field, gaining fame for his realistic painted artwork on Marvels. He then moved on to produce the equally successful Kingdom Come for DC Comics with writer Mark Waid. Receiving critical acclaim and multiple awards for these best-selling works, Ross made a name for himself as both an artist and storyteller, dedicating himself to bold experiments within the comics medium, including the DC Vertigo miniseries Uncle Sam, the Earth X, Universe X and Paradise X trilogy for Marvel and six oversized graphic novels focusing on DC's iconic characters. Ross continues to amaze readers with his stunning array of covers across an array of Marvel titles. Jim Krueger cemented his place in Marvel Comics history when he and Alex Ross launched the Earth X trilogy, a comprehensive super-hero saga bringing elements from across Marvel's decades-long history into a single future. His other Marvel work includes contributions to Avengers and X-Men titles. He again teamed with Alex Ross on the Avengers/Invaders miniseries and Dynamite Entertainment's Project- Superpowers, assembling the Golden Age heroes of multiple defunct publishers. Elsewhere, he created Foot Soldiers for Dark Horse and Clock Maker for Image Comics. Krueger is also an accomplished videogame designer, copywriter and filmmaker. His short film They Might Be Dragons won Best Short Film from the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival. John Paul Leon majored in illustration at New York's School of Visual Arts - where he studied under industry legends Will Eisner, Jack Potter and Walt Simonson, and first began working as a professional artist by illustrating a series of black-and-white images for TSR's Dragon and Dungeon magazines. Leon broke into comics in 1992 with Dark Horse's Robocop- Prime Suspect and followed this inaugural run with Static from Milestone Comics, a series which was later developed into the popular animated television show, Static Shock. After graduating in 1994, Leon continued working on some of the most popular characters in the comics world and lent his striking illustrations to numerous publishers in the field - including Marvel Comics' New X-Men, The Further Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix, Avengers- The Ultron Imperative, Captain America, Daredevil, Marvel Shadows and Light, Moon Knight and Thor. But he is best known for his critically acclaimed vision of a reimagined Marvel Universe in the maxi-series Earth-X. Leon contributed artwork for the Superman Returns style guide and several Superman children's books for Meredith Books. He also illustrated most of the licensing artwork for the blockbuster movie Batman Begins and worked on the critically acclaimed The Winter Men with writer Brett Lewis for Wildstorm/DC Comics.
