We’ve also got the Inquisition running around, and familiar faces using it as a cover, as well as Carlos Javier and his school for select gentleman aka mutants, in hiding from the Inquisition. Stephen Strange is a magician, and the Queen relies on him for advice and other various magical tasks. The basic premise here is: What if Marvel Superheroes, but in late Elizabethan England? Nick Fury is the Queen’s spymaster, and Peter Parquah (un-superpowered) his errand boy. I definitely liked it more this time, and got more out of it, but there was some stuff that was sort of perplexing and things that bothered me. 1602 was an okay read for me at the time, but I remembered almost nothing about it before picking it up again.
The First Avenger would be released three months later. The first time I read this I wasn’t very well-versed in comics, in the Marvel universe in particular, or in Gaiman’s work.
