2015 has finally arrived and Marvel Comics will be dishing on their new game-changing crossover event, Secret Wars, in a unique live stream event. Before the alternate universes, such as Planet Hulk, X-Men '92, and the Amazing Spider-Man, are thrown together in Battleworld, get ready for Secret Wars Live Kickoff.

Previously announced at New York Comic Con, the rebooted Secret Wars #1 comes from the creative team of writer Jonathan Hickman (Avengers) and artist Esad Ribic (Thor: God of Thunder). Legendary painter Alex Ross illustrates the Marvel superheroes in a spectacular battle that spreads across the universe. In this eight-issue event, the Marvel superheroes from separate realities are going to come together to meet in an epic standoff.

At 3pm, January 20, Marvel's Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso and SVP, Executive Editor Tom Brevoort  will be discussing the new Battleworld. Before the the first issue arrives in May, learn the first details of the strange, patchwork realm that will play host to countless separate realities.

According to the release, "The road to the biggest comic event of the year has begun, and you will not want to miss the first Earth shattering revelations that will have everyone talking! What will happen when Time Runs Out? What secrets does Battleworld hold?"

Check out the trailer to Secret Wars: Battleworld here:

We previously reported on the cover for the first installment and the Battleworld trailer. Each alternate universe forms the new Battleworld in Hickman and Ribic's Secret Wars. In the original Jim Shooter and Mike Zeck's Secret Wars comic, Battleworld was a planet that the Beyonder put together from numerous worlds. The Beyonder envisioned a battleground for all of the Marvel's superheroes and super-villains to fight in.

Streaming live from New York City's own Midtown Comics next week, fans can head on over here:

Secret Wars #1 is scheduled to to be released in May 2015. Readers, what do you think of this crossover event?
