However, as he navigated the world's religious and political scope, it turned out that his destiny was something much darker, and ending with a huge twist on the opposite end of the Christian spectrum. In 2004, Millar partnered with artist, Peter Gross, to hash out a story (initially titled 'Chosen') surrounding Jodie Christianson, a young man who was gauged as the second coming of Jesus Christ. It ended with Steve Rogers' death and redefined the publisher's landscape, while also going on to fracture the heroes in the MCU with the Russos adapting the story as prologue to 'Avengers: Infinity War.' His story made it tough for the audiences to pick a side, as each had such a strong philosophy on how to safeguard secret identities, loved ones and the world in general. It tore heroes and friends apart, with villains even being used as weapons in the name of justice.Ī big moment was when Goliath (Bill Foster) got killed by a Thor clone, as Millar showed he wasn't afraid to subvert Marvel's lore like never before. This saw Captain America's team go underground while Iron Man's team adopted a police-like approach in apprehending this resistance by any means necessary.

Millar worked with Steve McNiven's amazing art to bring 'Civil War' to life, splitting Marvel Comics in half due to the Superhuman Registration Act (which required superheroes to be registered by the government) being pushed by Tony Stark.
