Not sure if this has been posted before, but I couldnt find anything on it, so here it is, straight from MillarWorld forums by Millar himself. I cut the bulk of exposition out, so hit that link for the full post, but here's the clues to the next big story they are doing for next April.
So obviously it will involved Venom or Carnage. Death of the greatest Marvel hero? Is it the return of the real Captain America? Seems like Brubaker would be involved with that. Note it doesnt say the killing, but just the death. Captain Marvel had the greatest death issue, maybe it involves him? I dobut it though. Only other option would be Spider-Man since he said a symbiote was involved.
New president? Is Tony Stark going to take over America next? Maybe Nick Fury when he returns? I cant think of anyone that would be really a big name that could suit as president. Dr Doom taking over the world ahah?
Daredevil driving across America? Funny stuff. Would be hilarious seeing him and Spidey in an old pickup driving across the country or something with Spidey screaming over a blind man driving.
Hulk is obviously referencing that Red/Green image that surfaced. I doubt Millar and McNiven will be doing the followup to Pak's planned trilogy on Hulk, so Im not sure how that will work into it. This arc is planned for next April as well, which strikes me as odd since it will bleed into Secret Invasion wont it?
Some clues:
It involves a symbiote at one stage in the story, the death of the greatest Marvel hero, a new President, a blind superhero driving a car 3000 miles and The Hulk as you've never seen them (yes them) before. It's a lot of fun and I have a feeling this is going to be MASSIVE.

This reminds me of that issue of What If? ("What If Daredevil Had Saved Nuke?") where Daredevil drives Nuke to the hospital.
Please don't kill me with all the shitty pop culture references
Rock Band DLC | GW:OttW - arrcd | WLD - Thortar
Or driving a pickup truck into Ultron.
Are you seriously saying that the Ultimates 1 and 2 sucked?
I was just about to say that. I mean, I don't care about him that much, but I like characters to be kept in rotation.
Yeah, pop culture and COMIC BOOKS, whodathunkit?
The last thing he was in was the The Initiative cover that had a few dozen heroes on it.
Nah, I enjoy the hell out of them out side of cringe inducing pop culture crap. But Millar has has a tendency put out pure shit. Civil War being the prime example.

You're right. Civil War wasn't that bad, it was worse.
Didnt really want to turn this into a Civil War critique thread, but I actually enjoyed CW for the most part. I'm talking the main series by Millar and McNiven. I didnt like the line-wide mandatory tie-ins though and after the Clor stuff, it really went south, but finished well enough for me. Not the best event ever but definitely better than a lot of the 90s and early 2000's stuff we got like Maximum Security or Onslaught and so on. Still no where near as good as Annihilation was or the current Sinestro and Conquest events.
Every time someone mentions his name, I won't be thinking of the Ultimates or the Authority, I'll just be thinking of the ending of Civil War
But that's just me

I didn't mind it, personally, but I know it drove a lot of people crazy. I thought as a whole, Civil War (the main series) was very good.
Not so great when it leads to basically rewriting long standing characters so they suddenly have questionable reasoning and decision making skills, without any explanation as to the sudden shift of priorities.
there has also been a rumor flying around that marvels gonna be doing a "president stark" storyline running along with next years real world election (exactley like DC did with luthor for president).
i have no clue what millar is working on with mcniven but i did just read in the new issue of wizard that he will be taking on the 616 FF with brian hitch doing the art. i have no clue how i feel about this except that im really excited to see hitch draw the thing clobbering stuff.
Twice a year.
