Description: Marville #1 Marvel Comics, Greg Horn Foil Variant 2002 Greg Horn cover foil (woman in car) Marville results from the "U-Decide" publicity gimmick, a promotional stunt from a questionable online bout between writer Peter David and Marvel heads Joe Quesada and Bill Jemas. Marville is Jemas’ attempt to write a funnier and more reader-friendly title than David’s Captain Marvel. Doused with anti-DC sentiments and juvenile humor, Marville stars KalAOL (a parody of Kal-El, Superman, and America Online), the son of businessman Ted Turner. KalAOL is sent from 3,000 years into the future to prevent meteors from crashing into the planet, basically poking fun at the premise of DC’s Smallville TV series. Once there, he has no extraordinary abilities but does meet an attractive redhead, Mickey. Slaughtered by critics and fans upon its release, Marville probably received more negative feedback than any other Marvel title. We try to describe comic defects that can not be easily seen. Hence, we rely on the large images we provide, which generally show the front cover, back cover, side views, and centerfold, which will show the quality of the interior pages.
