Tony Harris — Divine Time
Marvel Knights 4 #16, May 2005
Tony Harris delivers a terrific cover for one of the oddest–logoed titles in Marvel History.
The title is not “4”, but actually “Marvel Knights 4”, as the publisher decided to give an edge to the FF by incorporating them into the Marvel Knights brand. (Of course this assumes you know that MK stands for Marvel Knights. And that you’re certain that “4” refers to the FF.)
It’s a puzzler how they ended up there.
And speaking of puzzlers — this storyline deals with time travel and Ramades, son of Ram-Tut, who makes his first appearance the issue prior.
Rama-Tut, of course, is also Kang AND Immortus, and also ultimately retconned to be Nathaniel Richards. Reed’s father. The Time Variance Authority and the Time-Keepers are also involved.
Frankly, as mentioned previously, I could never keep any of this straight, and even the very-detailed Wikipedia page can’t help my brain get around the various iterations of this character. (Not blaming them, though — it’s probably just me.)
Great cover art, though, and Tony colored it himself — adding the background texture as well.
(As for Ramades? He has yet to reappear since this storyline was completed in issue#18.)
