Marvel tends to not promote its trade collections all that much since the focus is on new singles and event books. But with the new Monsters Unleashed series coming up, they’ve got a new trade that they’re just announcing that will definitely help to set the stage a bit more. Titled Monsters Unleashed Prelude, the trade will reprint a lot of great classic books from years gone by, long before the Marvel Superheroes took over the company, as well as some recent series as well that will play into it.
“Before the can’t-miss first issue of Monsters Unleashed in January, meet a menacing menagerie of unforgettable monsters, Marvel mainstays, and some major players in Monsters Unleashed! Featuring Monstrom, Grottu, Moomba, Bruttu, Orrgo, Elsa Bloodstone, Lady Hellbender, Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur and many more!”
