Marvel’s Man-Thing gets weaponized in preview of Weapon Plus: World War IV #1

January 24, 2020 by Amie Cranswick

Marvel’s Man-Thing gets weaponized this Wednesday with the release of the one-shot comic Weapon Plus: World War IV #1; check out a preview of the issue here…

WHATEVER KNOWS FEAR! Biochemist Ted Sallis was developing a serum for military application, but was tragically killed in a freak accident before he could perfect it. Still, the data behind his formula remains property of the United States government and the Weapon IV Program to this day–Mutants aren’t the only ones to have weaponized flora!

Marvel Comics proudly presents a sensational new hero ready to fight back against the new world order! No longer just a man…not a thing…he’s All-American soil and he’s reporting for duty… Benjamin Percy (WOLVERINE, X-FORCE) and GEORGES JEANTY (WEAPON X) introduce…MAN-SLAUGHTER!

Weapon Plus: World War IV #1 is out on January 29th, priced $4.99.
