Dear Reader:
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 and the relation to Marvel Civil War
“The first level is “Secret War” [storyline by Brian Michael Bendis]. We saw ‘Secret War’ as laying the groundwork for “Civil War.” And to change the entire Marvel universe in one cut scene was not going to work; we needed to convince the audience that this could happen in the Marvel universe.
“So we start this first mission, which is certainly designed to feel a lot like the previous game. ‘We’re the good guys, they’re the bad guys, let’s go get ‘em.’ A very kind of black-and-white approach to the story. But then just after the scene — there’s a cut scene that plays — there starts to be chinks in the armor. Like, ‘Hey, should we really be out here attacking a foreign government?’ And [Nick] Fury’s like, ‘Trust me.’ - Vicarious Visions producer and former Marvel Comics editor Evan Skolnick
I have been meaning to get into this ‘Civil War’ graphic novel. Lube and JTS have been talking about it a lot, and it sounds like something I’d really like. Maybe if I read that I’d be a bit more pumped for the game!
