We haven't yet seen Marvel's August 2017 solicitations, which means that, based on the publisher's penchant for relaunches, the generally fragile sales position of a number of their titles, and the disputed success of Trickle Down Cominomics, it's anyone guess which books will return from the previous month. But for fans of the twenty comics revealed in a Marvel press release just now that will get Marvel vs Capcom: Infinite variant covers in august, fans can breathe a heavy sigh of relief!

1. ALL-NEW GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #7
2. AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #31
3. AVENGERS #10
4. BLACK PANTHER #17
5. CHAMPIONS #11
6. DEFENDERS #4
7. DOCTOR STRANGE #24
