Background

Neil Gaiman stated in an afterword to the series that he had always viewed the Marvel universe as "magic". [2]1602's editors Nick Lowe and Joe Quesada approached Gaiman after Quesada became Marvel's Editor in Chief with the intent for Gaiman to work on a project for Marvel. Nick Lowe (born Nicholas Drain Lowe, March 24 1949, Walton-on-Thames) is an English Singer-songwriter, Musician Joseph "Joe" Quesada (born December 1 1962) is an American Comic book editor writer and artist Gaiman eventually agreed to write a Marvel Comic in August of 2001, although he wasn't sure what it would contain. [2] When the September 11, 2001 attacks occurred, Gaiman decided that he didn't want planes, skyscrapers, bombs or guns in his comic— "I didn't want it to be a war story, and I didn't want to write a story in which might made right – or in which might made anything. "[2] On a trip to Venice soon after, Gaiman was struck by how the "past seemed very close at hand"; he returned from the trip knowing the story he wanted to tell. [3] The time was chosen because "it was a nice place to set the story. It gave me America and it gave me a lot of things that I wanted in terms of the way the world was changing. It also gave me the sense of wonder and magic. "[4]

Gaiman described writing the series as odd, since he hadn't written comics in half a decade; the story was trimmed down significantly as the size went from six 36-page chapters to eight 22-page segments. He also wanted to write a comic that was different from The Sandman, his most recognized work. The Sandman is a Comic book series written by Neil Gaiman and published in the United States by the DC Comics imprint Vertigo The profits of the series went to help fund his Marvels and Miracles LLC company, which is fighting for the rights to Marvelman. Miracleman, originally known as Marvelman in his native United Kingdom, is a fictional Comic book Superhero created in 1954 by [4]

Unlike usual penciled pages, Marvel 1602 used a technique called "enhanced pencils", whereby the finished pencil drawings are sent straight to the colorist instead of to an inker first. [5] This technique had been used before on Kubert's Origin, and results in cleaner and more elaborate lines. [5]

Editor Nick Lowe noticed theatre posters done by Scott McKowen and decided that the "engraving 'look' of the scratchboard would be interesting for the historical setting of this story. "[6] Scratchboard is a technique where a sharp knife is used to scrape through a layer of black ink to a hard chalk surface underneath; in effect, artists draw white lines on an all-black surface. Scratchboard or scraperboard is a technique where drawings are created using sharp knives and tools for etching into a thin layer of white China clay that is coated with All McKowen's illustrations were done by hand and then colored later in Photoshop. [6] For inspiration, McKowen looked at seventeenth-century engravings. He also added scrolls or flags to the covers for the "Marvel 1602" titles, basing the designs on Renaissance painting where scrolls are used to comment on the scenes depicted. [7]

The hardbound edition features a scratchboard illustration depicting the main characters whispering discreetly to each other on the cover. According to McKowen, the image was inspired by a depiction of the masterminds behind the "Gunpowder Plot", an attempt to blow up Parliament during the reign of King James. The Gunpowder Plot of 1605 or the Powder Treason, as it was known at the time was a failed Assassination attempt by a group of provincial English [7] Since the characters of the story are all traitors in the eyes of King James, they were drawn in a similar fashion. [7]

Fact and Fiction

Although the story is fiction in that it portrays the Marvel characters as they would appear in the Elizabethan era, 1602 features many real-life historical figures and situations.

Elizabeth I of England, for instance, is essentially unchanged from the real-world version, though she is assassinated a year before she was to die of natural causes.

Espionage played an important role in Elizabeth's time. Sir Nicholas Fury is the position of Sir Francis Walsingham, one of the great spymasters of the day who obtained the evidence that led to the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots, and vital information that helped defeat the Spanish Armada. Sir Francis Walsingham (c 1532 – 6 April 1590) is usually remembered as the " Spymaster " of Queen Elizabeth I of England The Spanish Armada ( Spanish: Grande y Felicísima Armada, "Great and Most Fortunate Navy" or Armada Invencible, "Invincible

In a similar way, Doctor Strange's interests and skills mirror some of those of the Queen's contemporary John Dee, a mathematician, astrologer, and geographer who was also interested in conjuring. John Dee (13 July 1527 – 1608 or 1609 was a noted English mathematician, astronomer, astrologer, geographer, occultist

Virginia Dare was the daughter of Ananias Dare (who is seen talking to Fury upon the latter's arrival at Roanoke) and the first English child born in the Americas. Virginia Dare (born August 18 1587, date of death unknown was the first child born in the Americas to English parents Eleanor (or Ananias Dare (c 1560 &ndash June 27, 1587, Legal death) was the husband of Eleanor White, whom he married in the church The Americas are the lands of the Western hemisphere or New World, consisting of the Continents of North America and South America Legend has it that she was killed in the shape of a white deer. A legend ( Latin, legenda, "things to be read" is a Narrative of human actions that are perceived both by teller and listeners to A deer is a Ruminant Mammal belonging to the family Cervidae.

The Roanoke Colony was also an early real-life settlement but the inhabitants mysteriously disappeared long before 1602. The governor, John White, Virginia Dare's grandfather, had gone to England for supplies and support but when he returned in 1590 it was to find the area deserted and abandoned. John White (c 1540 &ndash c 1606 was an English artist and one of several early "Virginian" settlers who sailed with Richard Grenville in 1585 to the modern What happened to the inhabitants has never been established.

The colonists assume that the blond-haired, blue-eyed Native American Rojhaz is a mixed descendant of Indians and Welsh traders. Captain America's real name, Rogers, does suggest he is of Welsh descent. In fact there have been claims of the existence of Welsh Indians through the legend of Madoc, a Welsh prince who is said to have landed in America three hundred years before Columbus. Madoc (Standard Welsh: Madog) ab Owain Gwynedd was according to folklore a Welsh prince who discovered America in 1170 over three Christopher Columbus (1451 &ndash May 20 1506 was an Italian Navigator, colonizer

In this version, Jean Grey of the X-Men becomes Master "John" Grey and is a young woman who dresses as a man — a reference to Shakespeare's plays in which women often dress up as young men: As You Like It and Twelfth Night.

Like Elizabeth, James VI of Scotland and I of England is also largely unchanged. James VI and I (19 June 1566 – 27 March 1625 was King of Scotland as James VI, and King of England and King of Ireland as James He keeps his firm belief in the Divine Right of Kings and his loathing of the witchbreed (Marvel mutants) mirrors the real-life James' view of Catholics. The Divine Right of Kings is a general term that refers to the philosophy and ideas used to justify the authority and legitimacy of Monarchs in Medieval and

When Javier criticizes Fury for smoking a pipe, Fury remarks that James once made similar reproaches. James was indeed critical of smoking and even wrote A Counterblaste to Tobacco on the subject [1]. On the other hand he was also a heavy drinker [8], and he is seldom shown without a cup of wine in his hand.

There are also hints towards James' homosexuality in this timeline, as there was some suggestion that he was in real life. Homosexuality refers to sexual behavior with or attraction to people of the same sex or to a Homosexual orientation.

Gaiman makes the interesting observation that the bodies of the Four from the Fantastick reflect the four elements that alchemists believed made up all things:

They were transformed when their sailing ship, the Fantastick, encountered a wave of energy from the Sargasso Sea, near where the Bermuda Triangle is located. The Sargasso Sea is an elongated region in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean surrounded by Ocean currents. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region of the northwestern Atlantic Ocean in which a number of Aircraft and surface

The Spanish Inquisition, led by Enrique (aka Magneto), was the movement behind a religious reign-of-terror that lasted several centuries. The Spanish Inquisition started and was established in 1478 by Catholic Monarchs Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile to maintain

Enrique's forced conversion from Jew to Christian was a practice carried out many times over the centuries. A forced conversion is the conversion to a Religion or philosophy under duress with the threatened consequence of earthly penalties or harm

The Inquisition's headquarters are at Domdaniel, a fictional cavernous hall and meeting place of evil men which is mentioned in several works of fiction. Domdaniel is a fictional cavernous hall at the bottom of the ocean where evil magicians spirits and gnomes meet

Enrique later announces the foundation of the "Brotherhood Of Those Who Will Inherit The Earth". The Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (邪悪な変異体の同胞団 jaaku na hen'i karada no douhou dan also known as " The Brotherhood " and Brotherhood of Mutants The society's name is a biblical allusion: "those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth.

Synopsis

Plot

James VI of Scotland lusts after the Queen's throne, and with Elizabeth's death will rule both England and Scotland. James VI and I (19 June 1566 – 27 March 1625 was King of Scotland as James VI, and King of England and King of Ireland as James James is distrustful of "witchbreed" and collaborates with Spanish High Inquisitor Enrique to blame the witchbreed of England, headed by Carlos Javier, for Elizabeth's death. A mutant within the Marvel Comic books particularly those of the X-Men mythos is an individual who possesses a genetic trait called an Magneto (alias Erik Magnus Lehnsherr, born Max Eisenhardt) is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by Marvel In addition to his mainstream incarnation Professor X has had been depicted in other Fictional universes. Fury, though unwilling to capture Carlos and his students, is forced to take the witchbreed to the Tower. Strange, Javier, and Fury meet in the Tower and discuss how to save the world- which will almost surely lead to them being branded traitors by James. Strange has learned that the treasure of the Templars and its keeper, Donal, and Murdoch, have been betrayed and are now in the hands of Doom. Strange also learns that Doom has been holding captive four heroes from the ship Fantastick, including Fury's friend Sir Richard Reed. The Fantastic Four is a fictional Superhero team appearing in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Mr Fantastic ( Reed Richards) is a Fictional character, a Marvel Comics Superhero and a member of the Fantastic Four. Knowing that James will never give him an army to march on Latveria, he conspires with the witchbreed, taking a ship levitated by Javier and his page John Grey across the continent. Jean Grey-Summers ( née Jean Grey is a Fictional Comic book superheroine appearing in books published by Marvel Comics. Strange is confronted by the Watcher, who tells him that the strange events are due to an anomaly he calls the "Forerunner". The Watchers are a Fictional Extraterrestrial race of Cosmic entities that appears in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. The Forerunner is from the future and his presence in the past has disrupted reality to the point of impending annihilation of not only Strange's world but all other universes as well. The Watcher forces Stephen to enter a pact that will not allow him to repeat what he has learned for as long as he lives.

Fury, Javier and his witchbreed launch a successful attack on Count Doom's fortress. The Fantastick Four are freed, and Doom is horribly scarred by what he believes is the Templar's treasure; in fact, Donal's walking stick is the true treasure, and using it Donal becomes the Norse god Thor. Thor is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Having nowhere else to go, the ship of fugitives heads for the New World. In Spain, Enrique is betrayed as witchbreed himself and is to be burned at the stake with his young acolytes, Petros and Sister Wanda. Quicksilver ( Pietro Django Maximoff) is a Fictional character that appears in the Comic books published by Marvel Comics. The Scarlet Witch ( Wanda Maximoff) is a Fictional character that appears in Comic books published by Marvel Comics. Enrique breaks their bonds and the witchbreed escape on a ship of their own, which seems bound for America as well.

Sir Stephen Strange is executed by James, and his head put on a pike. A pike is a Pole weapon, a very long thrusting Spear used two-handed and used extensively by Infantry both for attacks on enemy foot soldiers and as With his magic, his spirit can still communicate in a telepathic way. Telepathy ( Greek τηλε tele meaning "distant" and πάθεια patheia meaning "to be affected by" describes the purported transfer His wife Clea takes his head from the pike and sets off for America with Virginia and Rojhaz. Clea is a Fictional character, a sorceress in the. She is the disciple and lover of Doctor Strange. Clea believes that Strange's suspicions were wrong: Virginia is not the Forerunner, it is her blond-haired, blue-eyed "Native American" companion Rojhaz.

Rojhaz is in fact Steve Rogers, the future costumed crime fighter known as Captain America. After fighting against a future fascist government of the 21st century, Rogers was captured and placed into a machine which should have killed him but instead sent him into the present timeline. His presence has not only brought about a rift that will destroy the universe, but it also caused the heroes of the twentieth century to appear centuries earlier to counter the Forerunner's negative effects.

Fury and company arrive at the Roanoke colony, where they discover the rift that is tearing their universe apart. Javier, realizing that his enemy Enrique may be the key to manipulating the rift and thus saving the universe, traps him and his followers in their ship. However, it is the former inquisitor who dictates terms.

James sends his advisor David Banner and Peter Parquagh to America with orders to kill Fury. This article is about the comic book character and series For all other media appearances see Hulk in other media. When it arrives in America, Fury single-handedly kills all its members aside from Banner and Peter. In spite of this, Fury has almost lost the will to live: he failed to protect his Queen, he has been made a traitor to his country and all his wealth and property has been seized and taken over by James and his favourites.

Donal meanwhile turns to alcohol, devastated at the fact that he has brought about a god who, according to Donal's religion, should not even exist. However, the final component needed to deal with the rift is lightning and Donal is pushed into turning into the Viking god once more. Lightning is an atmospheric discharge of Electricity, which typically occurs during Thunderstorms and sometimes during volcanic eruptions or

Rojhaz, looking more and more like the Cap of old, refuses to go back through the rift: he hopes to build a better America from the beginning. Fury tricks Rojhaz by playing on the trust that Rogers had for the Nick Fury of his own time, knocks him unconscious and carries the body back through the rift, thus going into the future himself.

The rift and the universe restore themselves, meaning the destruction of the alternate timeline; however, Uatu the Watcher is granted a "pocket universe" by his colleagues in which the 1602 timeline remains intact, and where the powered fugitives decide to settle in the Roanoke colony, declaring it a free place for all. Uatu often simply known as The Watcher is a Fictional character created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby, and first appeared in Intrigued by the continuing events, Uatu continues to watch the new universe.

Characters

For more detailed acccounts of the main characters and the supporting characters, see Marvel 1602 (characters)

1602 features both historical figures and many of the original Marvel superheroes and villains. Some popular characters, such as Wolverine, were not added, because of Gaiman's vision to address the heroes of the 1960s. "The territory doesn't go much further than 1969 in terms of the characters that I picked to use," Gaiman noted. "I couldn't get everybody in because there are an awful lot of Marvel characters. "[4]

Reception and legacy

1602 was critically praised upon its release. Comics Bulletin declared that "1602 is a watershed moment in comic book history that will be mentioned in the same breath as Watchmen and The Dark Knight Returns. Comics Bulletin is a website with an emphasis on the American Comic book industry updated daily with news reviews interviews and editorial content Watchmen is a twelve-issue Comic book Limited series written by Alan Moore, and illustrated by Dave Gibbons and John Higgins Batman The Dark Knight Returns, originally published under the title Batman The Dark Knight, is a Batman comic book mini-series [9] Entertainment Weekly declared that the combination of writing and moody artwork meant "the Marvel Universe hasn't been this engrossing in ages. Entertainment Weekly (sometimes abbreviated as EW) is a Magazine published by Time Inc "[10] ShakingThrough. net noted that fans looking for elements of Gaiman's The Sandman would be disappointed; "It's not a senses-shattering Marvel epic, but then it's not meant to be. It's nothing more or less than a chance to enjoy reinterpretations of some familiar characters. "[11] UGO Networks concurred, stating "there doesn't need to be a 'point' in re-imagining familiar icons — it's simply meant to be fun. UGO Entertainment is a website providing coverage of online media in entertainment targeting males age 18-34 [. . . ] The result of 1602 is agreeable entertainment. "[12] The series won several awards, including the Quill Book Award for Graphic Novels. The Quill Awards were " Consumer -driven awards created to inspire reading while promoting Literacy. [13] The first issue was also awarded the 2003 Diamond Distributors Gem Award as "Comic of the Year". Diamond Comic Distributors Inc (often called Diamond Comics, DCD, or casually Diamond) is the largest Comic book distributor [14]

Conversely, Time Magazine listed it as the worst comic of 2003,[15] although the list's composer later stated "he didn't actually mean it was the worst comic of the year. Time (trademarked in capitals as TIME) is a weekly American Newsmagazine, similar to Newsweek and " UGO's Darren Latta noted as a downside to the series that "the approach maybe a little too subdued at times. " Latta also felt that despite being familiar with the setting, Gaiman never utilized the period to its full potential. [12] Others simply felt that Gaiman's involvement led to inflated expectations; one review noted that while reading "I [. . . ] felt at times like maybe it was all a little bit too cute, a little bit too in-jokey. "[16]

1602's success lead to two sequels. The first, 1602: New World, takes place shortly after the end of 1602, with the heroes settling down in America. 1602 New World is a five-issue Marvel Comics Limited series and is the sequel to the 1602 limited series and as such is set in the year The series was written by Greg Pak and illustrated by Greg Tocchini, and the first issue was published in August of 2005.
