Earlier this month in the penultimate issue of Chip Zdarsky and Marco Checchetto’s Eisner-nominated run of DAREDEVIL, Matt Murdock sacrificed himself to a hellish fate. But have no fear—Daredevil will be reborn this fall in a new era from writer Saladin Ahmed and artist Aaron Kuder!   Hitting stands on September 13, DAREDEVIL #1 will reveal the shocking price Matt had to pay to escape the afterlife and the biblical consequences his freedom has unleashed on the world. A changed man in more ways than one, Matt has now embraced a new role in life while Elektra continues to defend Hell’s Kitchen as the Woman Without Fear. Elektra would like nothing more than to give Matt the peace he deserves and allow him to live the life he was seemingly destined for, but a new enemy has other plans. Matt’s reemergence has released an unholy threat and in order to stop it from preying on the souls of Hell’s Kitchen, Matt will have to become the devil once more and reckon with the deadliest of sins!   Fans will have to wait to until DAREDEVIL #1 drops to comprehend the full scope and divine mystery of what Ahmed and Kuder have cooked up for Hell’s Kitchen’s cast of characters. In the meantime, check out a host of new variant covers!    "I wanted to only take this job on if I felt like I had a new, unique take on Matt and on Hell's Kitchen,” Ahmed explained on Marvel’s original podcast series This Week in Marvel. “And so that's at the center of this… him and his world, but it's the Marvel Universe. What I've really enjoyed in talking with other editors, other offices, is finding ways through these first couple of arcs we have planned to keep this centered on Matt, keep this centered on his people, in his world, but to bring (in a very organic and surprising fun way) some familiar Marvel figures that I think are going to blow people's mind when they pop up on the page!"   Behind a cover from industry and DAREDEVIL legend, John Romita Jr., behold the shocking fate of Matt Murdock when DAREDEVIL #1 in graces stands on September 13!

Elektra’s the deadliest assassin in the Marvel Universe, and this January, her vicious talents will be on full display in DAREDEVIL: UNLEASH HELL – RED BAND! The five-issue limited series will be written by Erica Schultz, continuing her work on the character after hit titles like Daredevil: Gang War and Daredevil: Woman Without Fear. Joining her on this blood-soaked saga will be artist Valentina Pinti (Blade, Immortal Thor). DAREDEVIL: UNLEASH HELL – RED BAND is the latest Marvel Red Band comic series, following the likes of Blood Hunt, Blade: Red Band, Werewolf by Night, and Wolverine: Revenge. Labeled with a Parental Advisory and polybagged to keep those faint of heart for experiencing its intensity, the series allows Elektra to unleash unrestricted bloodshed against her targets as she continues to protect the streets of Hell’s Kitchen as the Woman Without Fear! The violence and the occult swirling across the Marvel Universe find their way to Hell’s Kitchen! As grisly crime scenes start manifesting across the city, all signs point to an impossible perpetrator! Estranged from Matt Murdock, it’s up to Elektra to get to the grisly truth, if she can stomach it! “It’s been such a pleasure to continue writing Elektra, especially donning the horns,” Schultz shared. “In this new series, we have the opportunity to show that just because she doesn’t kill doesn’t mean she won’t make you wish she had. Elektra has been known for her brutality, and we’ll see that on display here. Also, with a Red Band rating, that means we can get real nasty with stuff. Don’t know what I mean? You will. Valentina Pinti and I are very excited to show you this new direction.” Check out Paulo Siquiera’s cover and preorder DAREDEVIL: UNLEASH HELL - RED BAND #1 at your local comic shop today!

The forthcoming Savage Dragon Vault Edition will collect the early creative origins of one of Image Comics’ titular, best-loved characters and longest-running titles. This highly anticipated edition will reproduce Erik Larsen’s iconic, original Savage Dragon miniseries artwork from the ‘90s, plus additional pages from the expanded Dragon miniseries that was released in 1996. It is set to hit shelves this October from Image Comics. This limited print run Savage Dragon Vault Edition oversized (12x17) hardcover will treat fans with special, archival quality reproductions of the art boards for every image that was used for the Savage Dragon #1-3, The Dragon #1-5, and the first Savage Dragon trade paperback, including all covers and pin-ups. It collects Savage Dragon #1-3, plus additional material from The Dragon #1-5, and makes for the perfect addition to any longtime Savage Dragon fan’s library collection. "As an artist who strives to learn, grow and improve, I’m a little embarrassed by these early efforts," said Larsen. "I can’t help but see every misstep and every mistake. But when fans say, 'your old stuff was better'—this is the old stuff they’re talking about." Larsen’s Savage Dragon is the longest-running, full-color comic book series to feature a single artist/writer and first launched, alongside the company’s founding, in 1992. It continues to release in trade paperback and hardcover collected editions and regularly releases new single issues. It is swiftly approaching its next milestone issue, #300. Savage Dragon Vault Edition hardcover (ISBN: 9781534329591, Lunar Code 0624IM270) will be available at local comic book shops on Wednesday, October 23 and independent bookstores, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-a-Million, Indigo, and Waterstones on Tuesday, November 5. Savage Dragon is also available across many digital platforms, including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play.

Moana is officially a wayfinder, but she's also now a big sister. Moana 2, which hits theaters on Nov. 27, introduces a host of fresh faces, but perhaps the most important one of all is a sibling who ties Moana (Auli'i Cravalho) back to home more strongly than ever before. In the sequel, animators introduce Simea (Khaleesi Lambert-Tsuda,) a rambunctious 3-and-a-half-year-old who wants to be just like her big sister. Simea has always been a key part of continuing Moana's story and is a character who's been part of the mix as far back as the early days of development on a Moana Disney+ series, which was then redirected to become this film. Co-director David Derrick Jr. was inspired to create Simea by his own family life (he has a young daughter, Samea) and the age gap between his kids. During the pandemic lockdown, his daughter, now 21, spent a lot of time with his son, now 7 — and their bond was tested when his daughter was able to venture out into the world again.

Falling in Love on the Path to Hell by bestselling writer Gerry Duggan (Deadpool, X-Men) and Garry Brown (Babyteeth) will kick off an exciting new story arc with two very special Frank Miller variant covers. The next chapter in this epic fantasy romance will begin with Falling in Love on the Path to Hell #5 and hit shelves next month from Image Comics. “Hearing that Frank Miller enjoyed the debut issue of Falling in Love on the Path to Hell sent me into orbit,” said Duggan. “Frank’s directly responsible for my brain marinating in samurai culture, Ronin is a timeless masterpiece and his indelible covers to the American reprints of Lone Wolf and Cub were my gateway into one of the best comics ever made. It’s not hyperbole to say our comic wouldn’t exist without the inspiration from Frank. Our entire team is delighted and grateful that Frank is sharing his talent on a guest cover for the start of our second arc. A true dream came true, and we're so happy that Jock accommodated our request to color Frank. You're getting two geniuses for the price of one.”

Falling in Love on the Path to Hell #5 will be available at comic book shops on Wednesday, October 16:

Cover A Garry Brown - Lunar Code 0824IM372

This January, writer Steve Foxe (Spider-Woman, Timeslide) and artist Ivan Fiorelli (Daredevil: Woman Without Fear, Timeslide) team up to reinvent what it means to be a teen hero in the Marvel Universe in NEW CHAMPIONS! Last year, fans were introduced to all-new heroes inspired by Marvel icons in the hit New Champions Variant cover series. Since then, readers have been eager for them to make their in-universe debuts, and after a few popped up in various titles over the last few months, they’ll explode onto the page in their very own ongoing series. The group begins with Liberty, Hellrune, Moon Squire, and Cadet Marvel, but will expand quickly over the first arc of the series as more New Champions answer the call! But not all are destined to be heroes and some have dark connections to established Marvel lore that could spell disaster for the fledging team before they can get off the ground. Each New Champion has a story to tell, and together, they have a world to change! Mystery, action, and drama awaits as Marvel Comics’ next beloved teen super hero team assembles! What do four kids whose lives were derailed by Hydra, Scarlet Witch’s mysterious protégé, a cursed roller derby jammer and a Wakandan runaway have in common? Not much! But when Hellrune’s mysterious powers activate to bring them together, they’ll have to learn how to work as a team quickly—or face the wrath of the Cult of Hela! “As soon as I saw the New Champions variants, my mind started racing dreaming up possible origins and powers and codenames for these imagined sidekicks,” Foxe explained. “Reverse-engineering the cast from the covers was unlike any other creative process I’ve ever been involved in, and I’m beyond stoked to debut a whole new class of Marvel heroes (and a few villains!) in NEW CHAMPIONS alongside Ivan Fiorelli, who makes each and every one of these new additions feel like they’ve been part of the fabric of the universe all along.” “I’m really looking forward to diving into New Champions!” Fiorelli said. “What really excites me about this project is the opportunity to bring fresh faces into the Marvel Universe, and explore something completely new. These young heroes have their own stories to tell, and I’m looking forward to seeing how they’ll grow and evolve visually as the series unfolds. I hope readers will enjoy reading our pages as much as I will enjoy illustrating them!” “I’ve been dying to write a teen hero team my whole career—it’s the time in everyone’s life when we’re figuring out who we really are, and adding Norse magic or jet-powered punches or accidental hell portals to that search for identity is a recipe for storytelling gold,” Foxe added. Check out the main cover by Gleb Melnikov and stay tuned in the months ahead for more news about the NEW CHAMPIONS and preorder the first issue at your local comic shop today!
