Today we have been reading Uncanny X-Men #14, Ultimate X-Men #15, X-Factor #10, Godzilla Vs X-Men #1, Gwenpool #1, Phoenix #11, Wolverine #9, Hellverine #6 and One World Under Doom #4 and looking for mutant links across them all… Uncanny X-Men goes harder with the racial parallels than it has ever done before in its tale […]
Yet again, Doctor Strange of Asgard #3, published by Marvel Comics today, has a One World Under Doom banner on the top of the cover. And once again, it has nothing to do with One World Under Doom whatsoever. Instead, it's just about Strange glomming onto a dark troll. The other three One World Under Doom titles published by […]
I love Ryan North writing Fantastic Four and One World Under Doom. And Marvel Comics for having hired a satirical comedy writer who specialises in breaking models of storytelling. And with One World Under Doom especially, text pages showing how the media of the Marvel Universe is covering the conflict, Doom having taken over the whole […]
This Wednesday, Marcos Martin draws Absolute Batman #8, and Nick Dragotta returns with some Batman bedroom antics next month in Absolute Batman #9. But we have a confrontation between Absolute Batman and Absolute Mister Freeze to find a way through. And a history of the now-late Matches Malone. And his presence on the day of the murder of Thomas Wayne at […]
I kept it out of the headlines for spoiler issues, but Image and Skybound have now pulled the Band-Aid on that particular aspect. As Bleeding Cool previously reported, and Lunar tied to put back in the box, this week's upcoming Blind Bag editions of Battle Beast #1. Most bagged comics will feature a random, possibly […]
What they haven't said, and with FOC today, that is clearly a choice that Marvel Comics has made, is that New Avengers (formerly New Thunderbolts*) begins with a One World Under Doom, with the Killuminati spinning out as an unforeseen result of Doom's dominance. Not the first One World Under Doom tie-in to ship without telling anyone (like Iron […]

At Naples Comic Con last week, comic book collector, dealer and representative Felix Lu posted some of the folks on his books at the show in the evening, comparing their art with Filipe Andrade, Nick Dragotta and James Harren. "When you're in a group of elite talents, you can't help but elevate your game. A big part of how these guys got […]
Bleeding Cool previously reported that next week's Battle Beast #1 from Skybound/Image Comics, which launches the new Invincible storyline by writer Robert Kirkman and Ryan Ottley, had orders for nearly 400,000 copies. But also that sales were helped by the first issue's blind bag promotion. In which the first issue ships in a sealed bag, […]
Bleeding Cool has been reporting on the upcoming Absolute Universe crossover for later this year, which got a big tease for Free Comic Book Day with the Absolute version of Mirror Master visiting Absolute Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. And Scott Snyder saying "We had a big summit, Zoom-wise, all the Absolute writers. There will […]
Storm #1, Laura Kinney Wolverine #6, Psylocke #7, X-Men #16, West Coast Avengers #8 and Ultimate Wolverine #5 are all published by Marvel Comics today. But where are the joining threads? So the Thunder War is coming, the Storm/Asgard crossover heading our way. But in today's Storm #8 by Murewa Ayodele and Lucas Werneck, which […]
Peter Parker was a bad boy. That's what we have been learning in Amazing Spider-Man of late, from Joe Kelly, Pepe Larraz and John Romita Jr. As chemicals, pheremones and hallucinogenic hormones have been pumped through his radioactive blood. With this utterly gorgeous shot of Peter pulling on his rebellious jacket, that itself deserves to […]
Bleeding Cool has previously run our big Batman: Hush 2 spoilery theory as to the identity of Hush in this H2SH comic book sequel by Jim Lee and Jeph Loeb. Rather than the original version of the character, who survived shooting and drowning, it is indeed one Harvey Dent. The man who shot Thomas Elliot, […]
So everyone hates Paul Rabin, Mary Jane Watson's live-in partner, after they spent years away together in another dimension. Everyone also seems to hatye Mary Jane Watson as the new host of the Venom symbiote. But, as Bleeding Cool previously suggested, one might be the solve of the other. All-New Venom #6 by Al Ewing […]
Justice League: The Atom Project #5, from Ryan Parrott, John Ridley and Mike Perkins, out from DC Comics tomorrow, shows the Atom Project that has been trying to sort out the scrambled superpowers of the DC Universe. As trained soldiers, they get access to the speedforce, which gives them super-speedforce, and the bodies to match. And that's an in-canon […]
At the end of the last issue of GI Joe, Clutch found his jeep transform with rather familiar sounds into the Autobot Hound of the Transformers, after stealing a certain Energon weapon from Cobra Command. In yesterday's Free Comic Book Day Energon Universe Special from Image Comics, the cover revealed that the full Transformers/GI Joe […]
The fifth and final issue of Hip Flask, the sequel to Richard Starkings' long-running Image series, Elephantmen, is being published by Comicraft on Kickstarter nearly twenty-five years after they first published the first issue. "Ladrönn started work on Hip Flask in 1999," says Richard Starkings, creator and writer of the series, "He was still working […]

Including personal appearances by the likes of Deniz Camp, Joseph Michel Linsner, Terry Austin, […]
Tomorrow is Free Comic Book Day. Will it be the last one? It all depends what the new owners Pop Sparkle want to do with it, since they will (lawsuits depending) own the whole damn affair. Anyway, Bleeding Cool always finds ourselves running spoilers for some of the more notable books…. here's a rundown where […]
With the MCU TV series Ironheart finally dropping at the end of June, Marvel Comics is upping the presence of Riri Williams with tomorrow's Marvel Voices issue for Free Comic Book Day.
