The new titles will start to kick off in January as readers thrill at the return of Hobie Brown aka Spider-Punk with writer Cody Ziglar and artist Justin Mason reuniting alongside cover artist Taurin Clarke. Spider-Punk #1 will introduce Mz. Negative, a new adversary for Hobie as he searches for the missing members of his band in a rock ‘n’ roll mystery adventure. The first issue features variant covers by Olivier Coipel, Jerome Opena, Simone Di Meo, and Justin Mason.

VENOM JOINS THE NOIR UNIVERSE!
Just as life seems to be going Peter Parker’s way, a new foe threatens to engulf him in total darkness—literally! As he untangles the mystery of what happened to his new girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend (it’s fine, we’re fine, everything’s FINE), Peter will have to choose between the allure of infinite power or catching a murderer…and his choice may cost him everything.

In February, an all-new Spider-Man: Noir series from writer Alex Segura and artist Farid Karami, finds Peter Parker caught up in an investigation involving a mysterious underworld artefact, his new girlfriend’s ex, and…VENOM NOIR?! Spider-Man: Noir #1 features a main cover by Stephen Mooney.

Teased at the end of the panel with a stunning promotional image by artist Ryan Stegman, the “Crisis of Faith” crossover slated for 2027 from Miles Morales: Spider-Man writer Bryan Hill and Amazing Spider-Man writer Joe Kelly is set to drastically alter the trust and relationship between the two Spider-Men and their allies, with more details to be revealed in the months ahead.

Celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Marvel Mangaverse with Five Weekly One-Shot Comics!

Posted on by

The age of super heroes has come to an end, but the Marvel Mangaverse still needs saving. Get set to revisit the world that introduced fans to manga-inspired versions of Marvel’s most famous super heroes and villains with a series of five one-shot comics releasing weekly throughout September in celebration of the 25th Anniversary of the Marvel Mangaverse. Bookended by Marvel Mangaverse: Web of Blood #1 and Marvel Mangaverse: Web of Destiny #1, a two-part storyco-written by the father-son duo of Joe and Jack Kelly with art by Kenny Ruiz that kicks off a dramatic apocalyptic event reverberating into each weekly one-shot, the Mangaverse 25th Anniversary specials pay homage to modern manga storytelling while introducing new versions of fan-favorite Marvel characters and focusing on deep, world-building lore.

In Web of Blood and Web of Destiny, readers are re-introduced to the Mangaverse, in a story that’s positioned as if the comics line had been published continuously for over two and a half decades in both the real world and in-universe. The trio of Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Weapon X-Tremis (Laura Kinney), and Legion (Illyana Rasputin), friends with very different ideas on how to stop a prophesied apocalypse brought on by the return of the Phoenix, will turn on one another as they wrestle with whether their actions are more likely to save the world… or hasten its destruction. Could the return of the Mangaverse be over before it even starts?

After the dominoes begin to fall in Web of Blood, writer Cody Ziglar and artist Kei Zama (turn the spotlight to the city of new Chicago and resident Riri Williams, who protects the streets as Ironheart using a mana-powered suit of armor After losing a close friend, Riri finds herself traveling down a dangerous path of vengeance alongside the legendary sorcerer known as Moon Knight in Marvel Mangaverse: Iron Knight #1, a shonen-inspired and action-packed one-shot, available September 9.

The next one-shot comes by from the team of rising star writer Ashley Allen and artist Mirka Andolfo as they introduce the Arcane Avengers, a reluctant group of sorcerers led by Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier. Cursed to defeat and imprison demonic yokai alongside teammates Bloodline and Wiccan, Bucky looks for opportunity to free himself and finally be free from his captor’s control. As a new wave of yokai incursion stretches the team’s resources, Bucky plots his escape, but the sudden reappearance of his former childhood friend, Hawkeye, throws all his plans into disarray in Marvel Mangaverse: Arcane Avengers #1, on sale September 16.

Bodies are lining the streets as Cletus Kasady, aka Carnage, carves a bloody swathe through humans and yokai alike. Together with her Shinigami bike, Kwannon, aka Ghostlocke, aims the Spirit of Vengeance at Carnage in a bid to stop his twisted cataclysmic desires in Marvel Mangaverse: Ghostlocke #1 from writer Alyssa Wong and Michael YG, in shops on September 23.

It all comes to a startling conclusion as Joe and Jack Kelly and artist Kenny Ruiz reunite in Marvel Mangaverse: Web of Destiny #1 to put Miles, Laura and Illyana at the center of the end of the world. Will these former friends be able to put aside their differences and save the planet before it burns to ash around them? The five-week Mangaverse 25th Anniversary event concludes in dramatic fashion on September 30.

RETURN TO THE MANGAVERSE – JUST IN TIME TO SEE IT END?!

25 years have passed since our last visit to the Mangaverse and in Marvel Mangaverse: Web of Blood #1, we discover a world where technology no longer works and magic reigns supreme, where a looming apocalypse threatens to end the world in a sea of flames. That is, unless Miles Morales, Laura Kinney and Illyana Rasputin have something to say about it! But as each attempt to stave off armageddon leads each further down the road of forbidden magic, these friends turned enemies must confront the question of whether their choices really will save the world – or doom it entirely!

Check out the five main covers for the Marvel Mangaverse one-shots by renowned mangaka Yuji Kaku, as well as special promotional artwork focusing on the trio of Miles Morales, Laura Kinney and Illyana Rasputin. Pre-order all five Marvel Mangaverse 25th Anniversary one-shots with your local comic shop today and stay tuned for more reveals in the months ahead.
