SDCC 2025: Marvel reveals new Deadpool/Batman covers by Russell Dauterman, Daniel Warren Johnson, and Frank Miller

Posted on by

At the Retailer Panel at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Comics unveiled new variant covers by Russell Dauterman, Daniel Warren Johnson, and Frank Miller for Deadpool/Batman #1, the Marvel/DC crossover one-shot hitting stands on September 17 that will be followed by Batman/Deadpool #1, a one-shot published by DC in November. Both comics will feature explosive main stories that pit Marvel’s Merc with a Mouth against DC’s Caped Crusader along with backup stories starring additional Marvel/DC team-ups and showdowns.

Superstar Russell Dauterman newly revealed variant cover, an homage to George Pérez’s Infinity Gauntlet #1, spotlights many of these tales including one also announced at the panel that features Rocket Raccoon and Green Lantern, written by mastermind cosmic storyteller Al Ewing and drawn by acclaimed artist Dike Ruan.

Other Deadpool/Batman #1 variant covers showcased at today’s Retailer Panel come from acclaimed artist Daniel Warren Johnson and industry legend Frank Miller. In addition to his cover, Miller will be writing and drawing a backup story starring Wolverine from the dystopian Old Man Logan story arc and the future version of Batman from Miller’s comic book masterpiece, The Dark Knight Returns. Daniel Warren Johnson’s cover highlights a showdown between two iconic Jack Kirby creations, the Thing and Big Barda.

SDCC 2025: What’s it like to be a Heretic?

Posted on by

Acclaimed writer Tini Howard and lauded artist Joe Jaro launch their very first creator-owned series at BOOM! Studios with a provocative, high-octane new take on nunsploitation, religious horror, rebellion, and good ole fashioned monster hunting in Marian Heretic, coming October 2025.

Sister Marian is a witch hunter of the highest order, a Mother Superior, and a heretic guided by a Goddess the Church refuses to acknowledge. When the Holy Father brands her order blasphemers, Marian strikes a dark bargain to become their personal enforcer.

As she delivers murderous judgement night after night in the city of Vespers, she can feel her soul fracture…but what else can she do with the lives of her sisters at stake?

Marian Heretic #1 features main cover art by series artist Joe Jaro, with variants by Dylan Burnett, Jenny Frison, and Suspiria Vilchez. It comes to comic shops October 1, 2025.

SDCC 2025: Alien vs. Captain America this November

Posted on by

Announced at San Diego Comic-Con’s Retailer Panel, Marvel Comics’ epic crossover sagas with the Alien franchise continues this November in Alien vs. Captain America by superstar writer Frank Tieri and acclaimed artist Stefano Raffaele. The four issue limited series follows Aliens Vs. Avengers, the blockbuster series by Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribić which concluded last month and marked the first-ever crossover between both universes. Set during Captain America’s legendary World War II adventures, Alien vs. Captain America pits Steve Rogers against the most terrifying extraterrestrials in cinematic history after the hero’s greatest villains unleash Xenomorphs on the frontlines!

SMASHING THROUGH, CAPTAIN AMERICA COMES FACE TO FACE WITH—ALIENS?!

It’s World War II and Hydra seeks a new weapon to defeat the Allies and win the war. To that end, the Red Skull has sent Baron Strucker on an expedition to the Himalayas to find the fabled city of Attilan. But instead of finding the Inhumans, Strucker uncovers something much more deadly. Much more… Alien. Can Captain America and the Howling Commandoes stop the Skull and his newfound xenomorph weapons… or will the First Avenger learn that in war-torn Europe… no one can hear you scream?

Check out the main cover by Leinil Francis Yu along with a chilling foil variant cover by Dan Panosian.

SDCC 2025: Marvel’s Cosmic Order Revealed

Posted on by

For months, Marvel Comics has teased that Imperial, the four-part epic by visionary writer Jonathan Hickman and superstar artists Iban Coello and Federico Vicentini, would usher in a new era of cosmic storytelling. At the Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing Panel at San Diego Comic-Con, fans learned exactly what that meant with the announcement of five all-new ongoing series spinning out of Imperial later this year!

In addition to first looks for upcoming Imperial War one-shots, Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski, VP & Executive Editor Tom Brevoort, and writer Stephanie Phillips revealed the first wave of ongoing series set in the new intergalactic landscape created by Imperial: Planet: She-Hulk, Nova Centurion, Black Panther: Intergalactic, Exiles, and Imperial Guardians. All five titles are set up in the Imperial War one-shots releasing over the next few months and begin launching in November, starting with Planet She-Hulk by Stephanie Phillips and Aaron Kuder and Nova: Centurion by Jed MacKay and Álvaro López. Both Phillips and MacKay are also writing their series’ respective IMPERIAL WAR one-shots.

Planet She-Hulk is a solo series unlike any other in She-Hulk’s history as she uses her brains and brawn to maintain order on the savage planet of Sakaar. Nova: Centurion represents a new era for one of Marvel’s oldest and most iconic space-faring heroes as Nova does whatever it takes to keep the memory of his people alive amidst the corrupt system now governing the stars. Read on to learn more!

SDCC 2025: Marvel reveals the finale to One World Under Doom and Teases the Next Sorcerer Supreme

Posted on by

The Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing Panel, one of the most anticipated moments of San Diego Comic-Con, gave fans a glimpse at the most monumental storylines coming to the Marvel Universe! In addition to new series announcements, writer Ryan North revealed the cover of One World Under Doom #9, the final issue of North and R.B. Silva’s epic event series that’s defined the last year of Marvel Comics storytelling. On sale in November, Ben Harvey’s cover dramatically teases Doom’s fall, but while his reign may end, the impact of Doom’s final actions will be felt forever! What comes next? Will Doom retain the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme or will another step up to become Earth’s prime mystical protector? See the potential candidates on a new promotional image by artist Devmalya Pramanik and learn more in the months ahead.

FINALE!

Doom has confronted all of Earth’s heroes in battle – and he’s won. What’s more, he’s used the magical power of Sorcerer Supreme to ensure that this victory has become a fixed moment in time: a thing that will stand forever, impervious to magic or time travel alike. But unbeknownst to Doom, in that climatic moment that can now never be changed, the seeds of Doom’s downfall were also fixed for all eternity. Left with an intolerable defeat that cannot be changed, Doom makes a choice he can never undo – and the rest of the world will pay his price…

Check out the One World Under Doom #9 cover and promotional artwork teasing the next Sorcerer Supreme!
