Spring just blossomed, but here at Marvel, we're already thinking about summer. While America celebrates Independence Day, our Marvel heroes ignite their own fireworks with new Dark Reign titles, special 70th Anniversary issues and more! Check out our
Marvel Comics Catalog for the full listing!
After evading the Dark Reign (DR) for much of the year, the
X-Men succumb to
Norman Osborn's clutches when DARK X-MEN: THE BEGINNING #1 goes on sale. The issue, along with UNCANNY X-MEN #513, mark the first two chapters of the "Utopia" tie-in as the books set out to explain what happened to our mutants and how they wound up underneath Osborn's cloak of darkness.
Summer must be the season to cross over to the dark side. Over 15 new Dark Reign titles, including DR: THE HOOD #3, DR: LETHAL LEGION #2 and DR: THE SINISTER SPIDER-MAN #2 take the Marvel U by storm in July.
With 600 issues to each of their credits, don't expect
Spider-Man and the
Hulk to slow down anytime soon! "The Man" himself, Stan Lee, along with Dan Slott, Marco Martin and John Romita Jr. are just a few of the creative masterminds behind AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #600, while Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness may reveal the truth behind Red Hulk in INCREDIBLE HULK #600!
America never looked so beautiful with Gene Colan writing and illustrating CAPTAIN AMERICA #601! The milestone double-issue features special cameos from
Nick Fury and the late
Steve Rogers, as
Bucky Barnes uncovers a lost tale from his and Cap's World War II adventures.

Cyclops,
Storm,
