Marvel Comics reveal eight new upcoming titles on its 82th birthday

In celebration of Marvel’s Birthday, Marvel Comics revealed its first look at eight new tentpole titles that will shape the future of the Marvel Universe in the months to come.

Although the company name Marvel Comics didn’t become a thing until the ’60s, its first actual comic, the anthology Marvel Comics #1, hit stands 31 August 1939.

The publisher low-key teased its plans when it recently announced that the upcoming Daredevil #36 would be the last issue before a hiatus of some kind. Towards the end of the announcement, Marvel slipped in that news on the future of Daredevil “along with additional new projects” would be announced on 31 August 2021. 

Here are the eight new titles that Marvel Comics revealed: Devil’s Reign, Avengers Forever, Timeless, X Lives of Wolverine and X Deaths of Wolverine, She-Hulk, Fantastic Four: Reckoning War, and Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur. 

Check out the details of each of the titles below:

Devil’s Reign

But in the end, who will reign?
