Secret Wars #0 – Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) 2015 is the essential prelude to Marvel’s monumental universe-altering event. Released as part of Free Comic Book Day 2015, this issue bridges the gap between past continuity and the chaos that would soon follow, offering fans both a primer and a tantalising taste of what was to come in Secret Wars (2015), orchestrated by Jonathan Hickman with art by the legendary Paul Renaud.
This introductory chapter lays the groundwork for the collapse of the Marvel multiverse. The incursions—a catastrophic phenomenon where entire universes collide and annihilate one another—have continued to intensify, bringing Earth-616 and the Ultimate Universe to the brink of destruction. Secret Wars #0 captures that final moment before the fall, focusing on the Illuminati, Doctor Doom, Molecule Man, and Reed Richards, as they each prepare in their own way for the end of everything.
While not heavy on action, the issue excels in atmosphere and setup. Hickman’s signature style—dense with scientific gravitas and philosophical overtones—is on full display. He crafts an ominous, slow-building tension, making it clear that no corner of the Marvel Universe will go untouched. The tone is dire, the stakes enormous, and the sense of finality unmistakable.
Alongside the main narrative, Secret Wars #0 also features a short story from the All-New, All-Different Avengers, giving readers a glimpse into the post-Secret Wars Marvel landscape. This backup offers a tonal contrast and serves as a clever teaser for what the Marvel line would look like after the dust settles.
Though distributed as a free promotional issue, Secret Wars #0 FCBD 2015 has become a sought-after item for collectors. It’s the true narrative starting point of Battleworld and the reshaping of Marvel continuity—offering key context and foreshadowing that enriches the reading of the full event.
Each copy is professionally bagged in an acid-free protective sleeve with a firm backing board to maintain its condition over time. It is then carefully packed in a rigid, reinforced cardboard mailer, ensuring it arrives in pristine condition. Expect swift UK dispatch and secure packaging, perfect for collectors who want their comics protected and ready for long-term display.
Whether you’re delving into Secret Wars for the first time or building a complete event collection, Secret Wars #0 (FCBD 2015) is an essential piece—rich in tension, lore, and significance.
