Civil War is the most important event in contemporary Marvel history. It saw the costumed heroes of the Marvel universe divided over the introduction of Superhuman Registration Act – a bill that would see all masked vigilantes forced to declare their identities to the public. It asks you to choose a side: are you with Iron Man, representing a push for total transparency, or Captain America, who’s supporting those who feel they have a right to wear a mask in service of the people? As you might imagine, Civil War quickly elevates to a fever pitch. Friends clash, enemies make alliances and lives are shattered; and when the dust settles, the Marvel universe changes forever. This isn’t a typical super-powered slugfest; it’s a compelling story of political intrigue that forces you to question moral responsibility in a foreign but familiar land.
