"We've really set the heroes on a war footing. The aggressors have set the tone, and it's a nasty one. The heroes will always try to win without dropping bodies but that may not be possible.

"Well, the real honest answer is, years ago Mark Waid and his collaborators were looking for some juice at the end of History of the Marvel Universe. I don’t think [the wedding of Emma Frost and Tony Stark] showed up until letters. And I just said, absolutely they can do that. Not that I was giving them permission, I just wasn’t casting a no-vote.
