Official Press Release

Prepare yourself for the marquee comic event of the fall, kicking off in the must-read Avengers & X-Men: AXIS #1. But before that, Marvel is proud to present your first look at the Inversion Looper - the exciting new promo item available at participating comic shops and retailers nationwide to coincide with the release of Avengers & X-Men: AXIS #1!

"We wanted to follow up our Original Sin Watcher Eyeballs with something equally as cool," say Marvel SVP Sales & Marketing David Gabriel. "We feel the Inversion Looper coming with Avengers & X-Men: AXIS #1 really fits that bill. Not only is it a fun promo item for participating shops, but it'll give fans a sneak peek at some of the inverted heroes & villains of AXIS."

Featuring promo art by Paul Renaud, the endlessly folding Inversion Looper opens to reveal the pre-inversion status of Iron Man, Luke Cage, Deadpool, Sabretooth and Hobgoblin. Flip the card open further to reveal the character's new looks for Avengers & X-Men: AXIS - including the new Superior Iron Man!

In addition to the Inversion Looper, participating retailers will have access to exclusive launch party items including lithographs by fan-favorite artist Skottie Young, special variant covers, and more! Retailers are encouraged to inquire with your Diamond representative or check upcoming Marvel Mailers for more information.

There's a fine line between good and evil. Find out how thin this October in Avengers & X-Men: AXIS!
