IF INTERDIMENSIONAL TREASURE HEISTS HAD A NAME… IT WOULD BE FELICIA HARDY! EVERYTHING is going wrong for BLACK CAT and VENOM!

CAT GOT YOUR TONGUE, VENOM?! What was supposed to be a simple smash and grab for BLACK CAT and VENOM takes a nosedive into the COSMICALLY AND CATACLYSMICALLY FLARKED. Probably because they’re smashing and grabbing from the most heavily guarded place in the Multiverse. But this one’s personal for Mary Jane and Felicia, and the cat and the sinister symbiote ain’t leaving this party before they get a few good licks in!

DC Unleashes a Multiversal Showdown in DC K.O.: Boss Battle #1. Check Out an Early Preview!

Arriving February 4, DC K.O.: Boss Battle #1 delivers a high-octane one-shot that brings the multiverse into the event. The issue is from writer Jeremy Adams and artists Ronan Cliquet, Carmine Di Giandomenico, Kieran McKeown, Pablo M. Collar, and Hi-Fi. This special issue throws DC’s greatest Super Heroes into a gauntlet of unexpected challengers from across comics, horror, fantasy, and gaming.

For the first time ever, DC Super Heroes will face off against icons including Sub-Zero (Netherrealm), Homelander, Red Sonja and Vampirella (Dynamite), Samantha Strong (IDW Publishing), and even New Line Cinema’s Annabelle, the infamous horror doll. And in a surprise twist, DC has revealed that Sabrina the Teenage Witch (Archie Comics) will make a cameo appearance!

In DC K.O.: Boss Battle, the heroes of the DC Universe are running out of time, and don’t have enough Omega Energy to enter the final battles. To stop Darkseid’s escalating threat, they must enter a series of escalating boss fights across the multiverse, each more unpredictable than the last. Every encounter pushes them closer to the edge, and failing to level up means certain failure in the final DC K.O. contestant brackets!

DC K.O.: Boss Battle #1 arrives on February 4 at participating comic shops and digital retailers with a main cover by Jamal Campbell and card stock variant covers by Jeff Spokes, Darick Robertson and Diego Rodriguez (featuring Homelander), Patrick Horvath (featuring Samantha Strong), Frank Cho and Sabine Rich (featuring Vampirella, Red Sonja, and Sabrina the Teenage Witch), and Gleb Melnikov (AEW cameo variant). Jeff Spokes’ variant cover will be available as an OTO wraparound in both card stock and foil. DC K.O.: Boss Battle #1 will retail for $4.99 US (main), $5.99 US (card stock variants), and $7.99 US (foil variant).

Marvel’s most unexpected duo is back!

In Black Cat #5, from writer G. Willow Wilson and artist Gleb Melnikov, Marvel’s greatest super thief found herself in trouble with the law…again. Luckily for Felicia, a certain red-headed super hero is in her corner. The relationship between Peter Parker’s greatest loves has blossomed in recent years, and the pair will reunite this March in Black Cat #7. This time, three’s a crowd, because unbeknownst to Black Cat, Mary Jane is currently All-New Venom! Will Felicia be impressed with Mary Jane’s turn as a symbiote super hero? Or will Venom cause their unlikely bond to revert back to frenemies? Superstar artist Kaare Andrews spotlights the trio in a bold connecting piece that will be featured as variant covers for Black Cat #7 and #8.

BLACK CAT MEETS THE ALL-NEW VENOM…MARY JANE WATSON!

In this all-new arc, the uncatchable thief teams-up with the sinister symbiote to pull off the most daring and dangerous heist Felicia Hardy’s ever attempted! Obstacles to overcome: Time. Space.
