Along with Spider-Verse‘s Gwen Stacy/Ghost-Spider (who permanently relocated from her native Earth-65 to Earth-616) and a disgruntled Gambit variant (not unlike Channing Tatum’s card-carrying Void castoff in Deadpool & Wolverine), the TVA is tasking a team of heroes from erased timelines with saving the multiverse.

The five-issue series — from writer Kathryn Blair (Loki and Daredevil: Born Again) and artist Pere Pérez (Edge of Spider-Verse and Venom War: Carnage) — will blend together the Marvel Comics version of the TVA with its MCU counterpart, which Loki production designer Kasra Farahani described as a blend of “Eastern European, Soviet-influenced Modernism” and a paradoxical mixing of large-scale Brutalism and American mid-century Modern whimsy.
“I love this idea,” Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios and chief creative officer of Marvel, said when the series was announced during San Diego Comic-Con. “It’s just as cool for us to see our work in comics as it is to bring the work of comic book creators to the big screen.”
Marvel has revealed the first pages from TVA #1, which you can see below. The issue goes on sale Dec. 18 from Marvel Comics.
TVA #1
The Time Variance Authority has long watched over the timeline, protecting it from dangerous variations that could cause the end of EVERYTHING.

Has her world been destroyed?!?
