However, the other collections have a different author so they may not round out anything at all. Maybe those other collections will round out the story more. There are two more collections that I saw on Scribd that will try to pick up before my subscription there cancels. So much of the book was just establishing the characters in their new setting that the story felt rushed and thin.

Mutants were considered witches and hunted by the inquisition (that part makes sense.) Political intrigues are hinted at but never really fully embraced as a story line. Gaiman is known for his Sandman comics series and his novels. Something is messing with the weather, there is a plot on the Queen’s life and a great treasure (weapon?) is being smuggled from the Holy Land to England. But the X-men are here as are the Fantastic Four, Dr Doom, Black Widow, Peter Parker, Daredevil and a few others. Some characters are a bit more vague than others.

So even though it took me nearly a year to get around to it after a friend gave me the book, I was interested to read Marvel 1602.ĭr Strange is the court physician. Summary: Marvel heroes reimagined in 1602 Elizabethan England.
