Marvel has really gone all in lately on their facsimile editions, perfect reprints of classic comics, exactly the same as they first appeared in every way except for the price, which has been changed to reflect modern price-gouging techniques Why, you might ask, would Marvel bother to reprint these comics when they can be accessed[...]

Some people piling into Marvel Comics Presents #6 are looking for a bait-and-switch Could Wolverine's senses be confused? Is it just a coincidence that she somehow has bone claws, three per hand? Maybe she's a Life Model Decoy? This is, after all, the Marvel Universe. We laid out how unlikely that was, given the story so[...]

Inside, somewhere in the wreckage, is the Ultimate Nullifier, one of Marvel's oldest plot devices, required to stop Galactus from consuming the Wastelands. But that's not all they find waiting for them They also run into a familiar character, if one unexpected to find in the middle of the desert… the Fantastic Four's mailman, Willie Lumpkin! It's[...]

For some reason, this sixth season of ABC's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D has made me nostalgic Maybe the small crew and new director are reminding me of the first few seasons It could be that the prolonged time on the Zephyr brought up memories of the early S.H.I.E.L.D. episodes[...]

And the future had titles. We also had a look at Marvel Comics Presents and divined the tea leaves to see what was what coming up with Ghost Rider: King Of Hell As well as the Hulu TV series and the Hallowe'en Comic Fest title Then there was this teaser… And a tweet from Marvel EIC C.B.Cebulski… MCP[...]

The book ended too soon, when it was really just getting going, IMHO. With all of that in mind, it's sad but not surprising to read Sina Grace's comments, posted to his Tumblr, about his time at Marvel writing the book and what he says was a lack of support from Marvel while he dealt with[...]

We got a brand new trailer this week for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, with the big focus being on new characters appearing in the game The trailer was released yesterday in Japan on Nintendo's official YouTube channel, and the Japanese website got an update to the game's description which included a little[...]

Marvel seems to be going through something similar… no price changes yet. Timely's Greatest Human Torch By Carl Burgos Omnibus is jumping from 1008 pages to 1032 pages, though still at $150. House Of X #1 and Powers Of X #1 will now both be 56 pages for $5.99 apiece, not the previously solicited 40 pages. And the[...]

Marvel Comics is to overship the launch issue of the new series Loki #1 by 100% As well as Invaders #7 Both are in stores on the 17th of July As a result, retailers will be receiving twice as many copies as they ordered, but won't be required to pay any more. It's a new story[...]

A lot of sites - including Bleeding Cool - reported that the Doctor Strange series by Mark Waid and Jesus Saiz would come to an end in September with #20.

Bleeding Cool reported that Marvel Comics had scheduled a reprint of 2099 Unlimited #1 as Hulk 2099 #1, part of the many Hulk-themed True Believers $1 reprints for September We also pointed out that the comic was written by Gerard Jones, currently serving time on charges related to the possession and distribution of child pornography,[...]

A week before the first printing of #4 is published. And remember we mentioned Marvel Comics Presents #6 getting a second printing with Ghost Rider on the cover? It's also getting a 1:25 second printing by Paulo Sequeira featuring Wolverine's Daughter on the cover as well It will probably look like this:   More and more comic[...]

Work earnestly with the team (which includes Sara Pichelli and Dave Stewart, so we know this comic, whatever it contains, will at least look great), and that perception changes. Beyond that, look, Marvel currently floods the market with as much product as they think it can sustain, so if it's bad, Spider-Man'll get forgotten soon enough[...]

Last week on ABC's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., FitzSimmons (Iain De Caestecker, Elizabeth Henstridge) got the reunion of their dreams – or, more precisely, nightmares But their journey is only half over: the intrepid agents and their BFF Enoch (Joel Stoffer) have to find a way to get back to Earth[...]

Yesterday, Bleeding Cool told you about incoming mass market speculation regarding the release of Marvel Comics Presents #6, published yesterday, regarding the appearance of a new character, Wolverine's Daughter. There was no mother named, but the magical qualities of this new character suggest it may be the daughter of the late witch Sylvie D'Arqueness, seen in[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Spider-Man: Far From Home is the perfect way to end the third phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe; with humor and a ton of heart. Director: Jon Watts Summary: Following the events of Avengers: Endgame, Spider-Man must step up to take on new threats in a world that has changed forever. It seems a bit odd that[...]

The third and final season of Netflix's Marvel's Jessica Jones – debuting earier this month –  marks the end of the streaming service's live-action relationship with Marvel Studios. In February 2019, Netflix officially cancelled Marvel's The Punisher after two seasons and Marvel's Jessica Jones after three – the last of the streaming service's series that also included[...]

The word is that people might like to pick up a copy of the new Marvel Comics Presents #6 It is already going to a second printing,  but I've heard word from UK stores that as of this morning it is already hot property, with people popping in to pick up multiple copies After all,[...]

From WandaVision and Falcon & Winter Soldier to Hawkeye and What If?, fans of Marvel Studios have a lot to look forward to after "The House of Mouse" launches its Disney+ streaming service in November 2019 But for us, the one that has the largest chunk of our interest is Tom Hiddleston's return as the[...]

Marvel Editor-in-Chief C.B Cebulski took to Twitter Tuesday to call out comic book website Newsarama for daring to guess which upcoming comic book Cebulski claimed would sell a million copies. @Newsarama I don't believe I ever said which comic I thought would sell a million copies Please don't assume and put words in my mouth[...]

Just random unconnected gibberish." https://twitter.com/JHickman/status/1143338485321031680 Hickman's complaint garnered support from fellow X-Men writers, such as Zac Thompson, one of the masterminds behind the current Age of X-Man event.

It seemed logical that Avengers: Endgame would be the end of the third phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe However, much like the second phase ending with Ant-Man instead of Avengers: Age of Ultron the third phase is set to end with Spider-Man: Far From Home That seems like an odd choice but according to[...]

Marvel, at least on the movie side, has thus far translated all of their costumes from page to screen perfectly The Spider-Man costume that was introduced in Captain America: Civil War was no different and now in Spider-Man: Far From Home we get two more suits to add in Sony and Marvel have shared a[...]

We can all agree that "bitch please you've been to space" is one of the best lines to come out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe period It's also nice to see a Thor reference in there and talking about the concept of mythology becoming reality in this version of the world. Jake Gyllenhaal and Tom Holland[...]

But until then, we've still got some lame duck X-Men comics to recap, so let's get on with the show… Sworn to sell comics for Marvel executives who feared and hated the fact that Fox owned their movie rights, The Uncanny X-Men suffered great indignities, but with a corporate merger on the way, the X-Men can finally get back to[...]

It isn't a stretch to say that Marvel and Sony have both made some pretty messy marketing decisions when it comes to the Spider-Man franchise It's usually the fans that call out these marketing fails but this time the actor impacted by the fail came out to say "what the hell is going on" Only[...]
