Ruins (comics)

Common card · No. 242641

Ruins is a two-issue comic book miniseries, written by Warren Ellis with painted artwork by Terese Nielsen, Cliff Nielsen (her husband at the time) and Chris Moeller, who took over for the last 17 pages of the second issue. The series, conceived by Ellis as a parody of the Marvels series by Kurt Busiek and Alex Ross, is set in a dystopian version of the Marvel Universe. Like Marvels, the comic features reporter Phil Sheldon as the main character and was published in prestige format, with fully painted artwork and acetate covers, further creating the impression that it is a more twisted companion piece. In the Marvel Multiverse, the Earth of the Ruins universe is listed as Earth-9591.
