Thor is back. No, not that Thor, the other one – the “real” one. The Odinson. And this sounds like one series debut that you are not going to want to miss.

The king is back. Not that you should have doubted his presence for a second, but T’Challa will indeed be back as the Black Panther in Marvel Comics’ Fresh Start era.

Marvel’s biggest super-team is back in the “Fresh Start” era with a new roster and a new direction. And yes, the big guns are very much back in action. This is the best Avengers team in a good long time.

Now don’t get too upset – though this Venom issue is a “number one”, it’s actually not. A part of Fresh Start, Marvel is going with a dual numbing system for it’s restarted lineup. So yes, this is a #1, but it’s also got the Legacy numbering intact. Oh, and …

Is this “fresh start” a reboot? Probably not, but it’s as close as it looks like we’re going to get for Marvel’s universe. And if you’re a longtime fan, then it’s more than likely going to be music to your ears… or eyes.

One of the greatest X-Men writers of all time, Chris Claremont returns to Marvel Comics to pen the wedding of Kitty Pryde and Colossus. Chances that this arc will end without some problems for our heroes? Probably zero.

Writer Dan Scott takes his penultimate bows, as he departs Amazing Spider-Man with issue #801. This promises to be a pretty wild final few issues for him though, as it’s “final confrontation” time for the web slinger and Red Goblin.

Sure Wolverine is back and all, but nobody in the Marvel U is really even aware of it. That’s a little fact that won’t last to much longer though. The Hunt for Wolverine is kicking off this May.

It seems like the X-Men film universe might be expanding with a movie based on a classic comic. That’s if the latest rumors are true, and they don’t get squashed by a few recent happenings.

Marvel’s Infinity Countdown is spawning a series of one-shots that will showcase Captain Marvel, Daredevil, and Darkhawk.

Don’t expect to see him in all his glory just yet, but this tease of Sony’s Venom movie does have some interesting moments.

Infinity is Marvel Comics’ big event for this spring/summer. And if you’ve been having trouble keeping up with who’s who and which stones they’ll wield, then you’ll be happy to see the Infinity Circuit.

Logan gets his brown duds in this first-revealed, second-shipped One:12 Collective Wolverine figure from Mezco. And yes, the shorts are much better than in that preview pic.
