Ready. Set. Die! Hundreds are killed every year in an elaborate secret tournament run by a sadistic lunatic with nearly limitless resources at his fingertips. It's not an urban legend. It's not a myth. Murderworld is real! It's online, and the gruesome truth has been hidden from everyone except its victims - until now! This is the wildly violent ride you've been waiting for. Gut-wrenching twists, unbelievable deaths and the Avengers bloodier than you've ever seen them before as the twisted minds of Jim Zub (CONAN THE BARBARIAN, AVENGERS: NO SURRENDER), Ray Fawkes (WOLVERINES) and a murderers' row of talented artists deliver the must-have story of the year! Featuring Spider-Man, Moon Knight, Wolverine, Black Widow and the gamesmaster himself, Arcade - who's putting the murder back into Murderworld! Collecting MURDERWORLD: AVENGERS, MURDERWORLD: SPIDER-MAN, MURDERWORLD: WOLVERINE, MURDERWORLD: MOON KNIGHT and MURDERWORLD: GAME OVER.
Jim Zub — a Toronto-based writer, artist and art instructor — has worked for a diverse array of publishing, movie and video-game clients including Disney, Warner Bros., Capcom, Hasbro, Bandai-Namco and Mattel. Zub divides his time between freelance comic writing and his position as program coordinator for Seneca College’s award-winning animation program. His projects include Samurai Jack, a comic series continuing the award-winning cartoon; Makeshift Miracle, a modern-day fable; Skullkickers, a sword-and-sorcery action-comedy; and Pathfinder, a comic series based on the bestselling tabletop RPG. Zub brought his talents to Marvel for the hit Disney Kingdoms series Figment.

Toronto-based writer and artist Ray Fawkes has contributed to DC Comics' weekly series Batman Eternal, as well as Constantine and Justice League Dark. He is a three-time Shuster Award nominee, and an Eisner and Harvey award nominee for his critically acclaimed 2011 graphic novel One Soul.
