If you’ve been reading Jonathan Hickman‘s books in the Marvel U lately, including The Avengers, everything seems to be getting more and more cosmic. This all has to be a lead-up to the next big thing from the House of Ideas called Infinity!

Infinity is a six-part summer event being crafted by Jonathan Hickman, Jim Cheung, Jerome Opena, and Dustin Weaver.

Check out the covers for Infinity: Part 1 here below.

Carnage will be entering the world of Superior Spider-Man via a new series titled Superior Carnage from creative team writer Kevin Shinick (Avenging Spider-Man, Robot Chicken) and Stephen Segovia (X-treme X-Men, Thor). The five-issue limited series launches in July first as part of Superior Spider-Man.

Check out a preview and synopsis here below.

Marvel Comics has relaunched their Marvel #1 promotion, where the publisher is giving new and long-time Marvel Comics fans the opportunity to read 700 classic and modern first issues of their comics for free.

These issues are of course digital versions of these comics that will be made available through Marvel’s various digital outlets. The publisher’s first attempt at releasing these comics was met with such a huge crush of fans that crashed the system. After some retooling and an all-new plan, the free #1’s are back.

Marvel Comics and ABC Studios have announced Once Upon a Time: Shadow of the Queen, a graphic novel hardcover to be released by Marvel Comics that is an extension of the hit ABC television series Once Upon a Time. The story will be plotted by series writer & co-producer Dan Thomsen, and co-written by Corinna Bechko (Planet of The Apes). Art will come from Nimit Malavia, Vasilis Lolos, Mike Del Mundo, Stephanie Hans, and Mike Henderson.

What’s even more exciting about this graphic novel is that it’s not just some one shot story, it actually fits into the TV show’s continuity proper. Does that mean fans of the graphic novel will see hints of that story in some future episode of the TV series?

Marvel is relaunching their original graphic novel line with of course an Avengers story. Warren Ellis (Secret Avengers) and Mike McKone (Amazing Spider-Man) have partnered up to craft this original story titled Avengers: Endless Wartime that Marvel is calling “movie-length.” The story involves Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Hawkeye, and Wolverine fighting it out in a wartorn land against an “abomination” long thought buried.

We have some images here below from the upcoming graphic novel, which is available now for pre-order to give you a taste of what’s to come!

Each of the characters appear to be bringing their own baggage to this fight as Marvel says “Captain America will not stand for yet more death at the hands of a ghost from his past. Haunted by his greatest shame, Thor must renew the hunt for a familiar beast.”
