The series stars Arkon, a lord of warlords and ruler of the kingdom Polemachus. "If I got to take all my favorite genre movies from the 1970s and throw them into one world, this would be that world." This corner of Battleworld is "basically a hodgepodge of the weirdest, strangest, more obscure bits and bobs of the Marvel Universe," Aaron says of Weirdworld, a title that comes from a late-1970s Marvel take on a Lord of the Rings-type story. The book launches June 3 with art and covers by Michael Del Mundo. The writer revisits his younger days of being a "pretty big sword-and-sorcery nerd" for the tie-in fantasy series with Marvel Comics' massive Secret Wars crossover. Barbarians, elves, odd beasts, wizards, giant lizards, flying dinosaurs - if it's weird, it'll probably find its way into Jason Aaron's Weirdworld.
