So after much positive fanfare for the fake Guardians of the Globe teasers; featuring Invincible, Spawn, Rick Grimes, Gary Popper, and President Barack Obama, Image has announced that the team will, in fact assemble. When Guardians of the Globe launches in August, every issue will feature a one page back up story, to be written by Chris Giarrusso, that will feature the Obama team.
Guardians co-writer Robert Kirkman said “”The response to the Guardians of the Globe teasers was astounding. So many people wanted to see a Guardians team made up of Invincible, Spawn, Rick Grimes, Barack Obama, and Gary Popper. Ask, and you will receive!”
Guardians of the Globe will be a six part miniseries, written by Kirkman and Benito Cereno, and art handled by Ransom Getty. It launches August 25th.
