Writer Warren Ellis and Illustrators Salvador Larroca and Jason Keith, in honor of The 20th Anniversary of the New Universe, are creating a single-title re-imagining of The New Universe Saga, with the first issue to be released on December 6th, 2006 under the title newuniversal.
For more information on this forthcoming title, see the following link: [1]
The series will come with a T+ (teens and up) rating.
Ellis has stated that the alternate universe of newuniversal is designated Earth-555, identifying it as part of the larger Marvel Multiverse.
Ellis has further stated that "the first sequence revolves around the old 'lead' books from New Universe" and has confirmed that Spitfire will be included as part of this storyline. Ellis has "named Nightmask as one of the more interesting concepts of the previous New Universe incarnation"[2]. Nightmask will not be Keith Remsen, however - instead it will be an entirely different character, Izanami Randall, "a Japanese-American girl in San Francisco"[3]. Starbrand will be introduced as part of the first newuniversal storyline and that he does not see the character "as a Superman figure", but as a "spectacularly ordinary American kid from the Midwest, not too bright, who is sent magic powers from space"[4]
