Marvel Releasing New Prose Novels Beginning With ‘Civil War’

Marvel has announced a new line of prose novels of some of their most popular comic book series, starting with the company’s biggest event of the last decade, ‘Civil War’. The events of the series forever changed the Marvel universe, splitting it in half and pitting hero against hero, leading to one hero revealing his secret identity to the world, and the shocking death of another. This  is my all time favorite comic miniseries, so I’m excited to see what Marvel will do with this new adaption. It’ll be interesting to see what other stories they decide to tell as well if this one sells well. Hit the jump for the full press release.

CIVIL WAR Launches Marvel’s New Line Of Prose Novels

New York, NY—December 20^th, 2011—The world’s most popular super heroes can be found in the pages of Marvel Comics every week, but now their greatest stories are set to conquer the world of prose fiction! Launching in June 2012 with the adaptation of CIVILWAR, Marvel will release its most popular stories of all time as prose novels.

It all begins in CIVIL WAR, adapted by author Stuart Moore (Wolverine), with the story that irrevocably altered the Marvel Universe and redefined comic books for an entire generation. In the wake of a tragedy, Capitol Hill proposes the Superhuman Registration Act, requiring all costumed heroes to unmask themselves before the government. Divided, the nation’s greatest champions must each decide how to react — but will you side with Iron Man or Captain America? And just which heroes will pay the ultimate price?

“Releasing our most acclaimed graphic novels as prose fiction not only allows us to reach a different audience with these stories, but also gives us a chance to bring those readers back to the comics that started it all,” said David Gabriel, Senior Vice President of Sales, Marvel Entertainment. “CIVIL WAR is easily our best-selling graphic novel of the past decade and certainly one of the most influential in recent memory, so it was the perfect launch title for this new line. Not only will you get all the action that Mark Millar and Steve McNiven delivered in comic form but  no fan will want to miss the new wrinkles we’ve added in this novel. ”
