The conclusion to the limited series. I know, it brings a tear to my eye, too. But seriously, this has been a thrill to work on. So many talented people have had their hands on this, including Rob Simpson, our editor at EA Comics, quite possibly the nicest guy you’ll ever meet. This one’s for you, Rob.
Thanks to all who’ve been following the series. It’s been a joy. Now hurry to a comic book store. This one’s got zing!

Just announced at Comic Con in San Diego: Orson Scott Card and I will be writing a new limited series for Marvel in the Enderverse entitled FORMIC WARS.
Check out an interview I did for Marvel.com here.
As any fan of Ender’s Game knows, Ender Wiggin destroyed the Formics in the Third Formic War. But what about the First and Second Formic Wars? What happened during THOSE conflicts? How did the world get to the state it’s in when Ender is born? What did the formics do to our planet that led to all-out war?
Well, the answers will come in this new limited series, including the story of young Mazer Rackham.
I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to be working on this. I’ve been a life-long fan of Ender’s Game, and to work in the Ender universe now is absolutely incredible. I still can’t believe it myself. Look for more news about the upcoming series in the future.
Thirteen-year-old Ender Wiggin has a new assignment: governor of a colony planet. And Valentine, his sister, has given up everything to join him. But the starship carrying them to their destination carries a new enemy as well: Admiral Morgan, the captain of the ship. Determined to strip Ender of power and seize the governorship for himself, Morgan will do anything to undermine Earth’s youngest and greatest hero. Based on the bestselling novel by science-fiction master Orson Scott Card, the adaptation of the multiple award-winning Ender Wiggin series continues here!

New cover just released. I’m so thrilled to be working on this project. I’ve long been a fan of Ender’s Game, and I was doing back flips when Orson Scott Card released the direct sequel Ender in Exile in November 2008. Beautiful art by Pop Mahn. Cover by Sebastian Fiumara. For some reason Marvel has billed me as Aaron William Johnston, with my middle name. Not sure why. This means that I now show up on their list of writers twice, once with my middle name and once without. Ah well. What do you do?
Note: This is the first cover to feature Ender’s new enemy, Admiral Quincy Morgan, and his love interest, Alessandra Toscano, a colonist heading to the planet Shakespeare with Ender.

My newest one-shot in the Marvel Enderverse is now available. Ender fans (like myself) do not want to miss this one. This is an original story that Scott Card and I developed that’s never been told before: How did Peter and Valentine start and end The League War. Fantastic art by Timothy Green.
