Marvel’s Heroes are Transported to Fantastical Worlds in Isekai Variant Covers

Posted on by Leave a comment

This August, Marvel’s Stormbreakers take the heroes and villains of the Marvel Universe out of their element and into fantastical new worlds in Isekai Variant Covers!

“Isekai,” Japanese for “a different world,” is a subgenre popular in manga, anime, and video game storytelling in which a protagonist is transported to another realm. The Stormbreakers’ imagination runs wild with the concept across these new covers, pulling Marvel characters into strange settings and depicting them with striking new designs and powers. The new collection arrives just ahead of the Marvel Mangaverse 25th anniversary one-shots, five special one-shots revisiting the world of Marvel Mangaverse and introducing new manga-inspired versions of iconic Marvel heroes.

The current class of Marvel’s Stormbreakers include Alessandro Cappuccio, Netho Diaz, Simone Di Meo, Juan Frigeri, Gurihiru, Jonas Scharf, Geoff Shaw, and Luciano Vecchio. Chosen for their remarkable art, notable achievements, and boundless imagination when bringing the Marvel mythos to the page, these creators represent the future of comic book artistry and embody the raw talent to shatter the limits of visual storytelling!

Doctor Doom turns heads and vanquishes all in Doom All-On-One from Al Ewing and Alessandro Cappuccio

Posted on by

Once a year on Midsummer Eve, when the walls between worlds are thin, Doctor Doom travels to Hell to challenge Mephisto for his mother’s soul. This October, writer Al Ewing and artist Alessandro Cappuccio detail one of Doom’s most valiant efforts to save his mother as he takes on the entire Marvel Universe in Doom All-On-One #1, an explosive and action packed one-shot told entirely in landscape-oriented splash pages.

Doom All-On-One #1 follows in the footsteps of 2025’s Marvel All-On-One #1 by Ryan North and Ed McGuinness, another 50-page epic which saw The Thing clobber many of Marvel’s heroes and villains, and Fantastic Four (1961) #252 by John Byrne, which detailed the FF’s journey into the Negative Zone entirely in landscape-style storytelling. Unlike the FF, Doom has no allies on his journey into hell. Doom is entirely on his own.

… AND DOOM HAS THEM OUTNUMBERED!

For decades, Doctor Doom challenged the demon Mephisto as only DOOM would dare — because he could! And also for the freedom of his mother’s soul! This is the tale of his greatest such challenge — as Doom battles the entire Marvel Universe across the searing flames of perdition itself! Does the Marvel Universe have a hope in literal heck? Find out, Doom Believers — across fifty, count ’em, FIFTY wide-screen pages of the eschatological brawl to end ’em all!

Check out the main cover and interior pages from Doom All-On-One #1 by Alessandro Cappuccio plus variant covers by Greg Capullo and InHyuk Lee.
