    Short summary describing this issue.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    The story that has taken the comic book world by storm marches on with an issue so secretive that we can’t even reveal the full title! WHO IS THE NIGHT MACHINE?! Find your answer here from Jonathan Hickman (FANTASTIC FOUR) and Dustin Weaver (X-MEN). Every issue has sold out and gone into multiple printings. IT’S GOOD! WE PROMISE! Don’t miss the sleeper hit of 2010!

    6000 years in the future in a jungle, Howard Stark wakes up and makes his way to Nathaniel Richards with help of a shortwave radio walkie-talkie. The two come across some huge pyramid ruins and a massive statue. This was where they were sent when Nathaniel touched Nikola Tesla.

    1957-1960: Leonardo’s floating ball ‘Human Machine’ splits into more and more complex atoms as the Celestial baby grows up. DaVinci’s presence causes division within Shield.

    1951: Nathaniel Richards leaves his home and family and gets into a car with Howard Stark. Nathaniel says he refuses to accept that he won’t see his son again. Howard reveals their first target: a man who disappeared in 1943 with his notes and technology - the ‘Forever Machines’ which are global security threats. Howard tells Nathaniel that he didn’t tell Tony he was never coming home again and say his death will be faked soon. Their car converts into an advanced vehicle that flies into the air.

    6000 years in the future: Howard and Nathaniel meet the white haired lady and come across a wounded Nikola Tesla.

    The secret Identity of The Night Machine is revealed, Da Vinci's return starts a fracture in the Brotherhood of the Shield, and the drums of war begin to pound.  The Good Another issue, another excellent cover by Dustin Weaver. I love the design of the "Night Machine". Despite him just standing there the lighting effects and coloring and painted style really bring the image to life. Weaver's interior art remains just as wonderful. It has a vintage yet vibrant feel to it and Strain's colors highl...

    Who said Science and Pshysics couldn´t be fun? Hickman presents another interesting and amazing tale of the architects of humanity and it´s so fun seeing  the growing and evolution of the schism between Da Vinci and Newton´s beliefs and convictions (It´s very interesting seeing Newton as a fascist).
