Marvel Comics: 5 moments that prove Empyre is a game-changer
By Mark Lynch
Uatu is back and he’s not happy
Marvel Comic: Empyre: Fallout Fantastic Four No. 1
During the festivities after the battle, Iron Man asked where Sequoia got his weapons. It wasn’t shocking that he refused to tell him. A specialist was called in and even she didn’t know where they were from. She said that they were older than her and she is one of the elders of the universe. After everyone left, The Unseen (formerly known as Nick Fury) took the weapons to see who made them. While he was examining the weapons, light shot out of his eye and Uatu was reborn.
Why is this important?
In Original Sin, Nick Fury killed the Watcher by shooting him in the head. At the end of the series, Nick Fury was forced to take over for the Watcher. He was chained and unable to leave his post and forever charged with observing the events of the universe. When Uatu returned, he said, “There shall be… a reckoning.” Obviously, he’s mad at Nick Fury for killing him, but is he mad at anyone else? Uatu most likely saw everything that Nick Fury did. Something may have happened that could have infuriated him. Considering everything that’s happened since he’s been gone, it could be anything. Also, with Uatu back, does that mean Nick Fury is released from his duties?
