AFTER SPENDING THE PAST TWO years on creator-owned work, Kieron Gillen has been lured back to Marvel by two new projects, as he not only helms the House of Ideas’ first Warhammer 40,000 mini-series Marneus Calgar, but also becomes the writer of the latest iteration of the Eternals.
“I’m always looking for something I haven’t done before,” says Gillen, who started out in comics in the late ’90s by contributing to Warhammer Monthly. “In the case of Warhammer, it was setting the tone and direction for Marvel’s new line of books and working out how we can tap into Marvel’s unparalleled resources to make Warhammer comics unlike any that have existed before. It’s a big challenge, and I love it.”
It’ll all be over by Christmas 40,001, they said.
