Welcome to newuniversecomics.com.  Dedicated to Jim Shooter's first World Outside Your Window comic book universe.

Before The Ultimate Marvel Universe
Before the TV show Heroes
There was the New Universe from Marvel Comics.
The first real world comic book universe.
Featuring stories and art by some of comic's most legendary creators: Jim Shooter, Archie Goodwin, John Byrne, Mark Gruenwald, Paul Ryan, Geoff Isherwood, and some of the earliest works by Peter David, Jim Lee, Mark Texira, John Romita Jr, and many more.

Another newuniversal one-shot has been solicited by Marvel for August release.
NEWUNIVERSAL: CONQUEROR ONE-SHOT
Written by SIMON SPURRIER
Penciled by ERIC NGUYEN
Cover by BRANDON PETERSON
Five thousand years ago, civilization was held in the mighty hand of the slayer called STARR, who defended his kingdom from all invaders. But what were these invaders? Simple monsters…or something more? In this, the second one-shot story exploring the history and mythos of the NEWUNIVERSAL world, writer SIMON SPURRIER—hand-picked by NEWUNIVERSAL’s WARREN ELLIS—and visionary artist ERIC NGUYEN bring to life a history like you’ve never imagined!
48 PGS./Parental Advisory …$3.99


The first newuniversal one-shot appears in July. 
newuniversal: 1959
Written by KIERON GILLEN
Penciled by GREG SCOTT
Cover by BRANDON PETERSON
This is a story about killing the future. 1959 is the dawn of the new age of superheroics—the so-called “Fireworks” have granted superhuman powers to three Americans, and set the world on a collision-course with destiny. But it’s a destiny Philip Voight must prevent at any cost. The first newuniversal one-shot expands the mythos of this world, thanks to writer KIERON GILLEN (Phonogram), hand-picked by newuniversal’s Warren Ellis, and the brilliant art of GREG SCOTT shows us the world, like it never was…in 1959.
48 PGS./Parental Advisory …$3.99

Valiant Entertainment, the new publisher of Valiant Comics, has announced Paramount Pictures has agreed to an option for a Harbinger movie!  Click here for info.  As many of you know I've long held that D.P. 7 and Psi-Force were effectively models for Harbinger.  Check out our article entitled 'The New Universe Influence On Valiant Comics' on the 'A New Universe Revisited' page for more on how those New Universe titles modeled Harbinger.

Item!  Jenny Swensen, aka Spitfire of the original New Universe,  stars in what is essentially a five page short story in the newly released Exiles one-shot entitled "Days Of Then And Now." This appears to have been a one-shot of a team of  Exiles featuring Jenny that may never appear in comics again.
