Next week is the 7th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics February 12 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics February 5 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: North’s One World Under Doom debuts, Eddie Brock goes red, 80s Spidey hits classic omni, Epic Young Avengers, arc-enders from Spider-Boy & Spider-Gwen, return of Utgard-Thor, two flavors of Cable, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: As tempted as I am to say Magik (2025) #2 after her smash hit first issue, I have to go with my heart and pick One World Under Doom (2025) #1 (of 9) penned by Ryan North. I’ve been cheering for North since the very start of his web comic days. It’s wild to see the web comic darling of 20 years ago steering a major Marvel event for arguably their signature villain. More on what North might in store below.

This post includes every comic out from Marvel Comics February 12 2025, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats.

This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and review every series with a new issue out this week. Plus, for every new release, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to Marvel Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

There’s no other website on the internet that can claim that.

This week in Marvel Comics: Sam Wilson’s saga, Epic Guardians, a Venomous mystery, Elektra unleashes hell, X-Men are Magik again, New Champions, Ultimate Panther vs. Moon Knight, The End of Marvel, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Magik (2025) #1! Magik scores her first ongoing series and it’s by a relatively new comic writer, Ashley Allen. Can Allen make magic with Magik and turn her into the newest X-Men solo star? I can’t wait to find out!

Marvel Comics January 8 2025 Collected Editions

Captain America: The Saga of Sam Wilson
(2025 paperback, ISBN 978-1302956639 / digital)
See Guide to Sam Wilson – Falcon & Captain America. This isn’t a “best of” collection like some Saga trades, and isn’t even all material of Sam Wilson as Cap. But, it’s all pretty good!

This collects Sam’s debut as Cap, his initial 2015 single-arc series by Rick Remender from before Secret Wars, his 2016 return to being Falcon in Marvel Legacy (which I think got slept on), and the one-shot showing off his seemingly permanent return to being Cap alongside Steve as Cap from 2023.

Why collect that disparate group of material separated by two years of comics? It skips over a lot of other material of Sam as Cap, including his entire 2016 series from Nick Spencer. However, that’s all collected in Complete Collections, so it makes sense to collect around it with this book. The one thing that’s critically missing is All-New Captain America: Fear Him (2014), a digital series that was actually his first run with the stars and stripes.

Guardians of the Galaxy, Modern Era Epic Collection Vol. 2: War of Kings
(2025 paperback, ISBN 978-1302959968 / digital)
See Guide to Guardians of the Galaxy. While some Modern Era Epics are just reskinned Complete Collections, this one actually improves on the existing Guardians of the Galaxy by Abnett & Lanning: Complete Collection, Vol. 2 by collecting the back half of their series and adding in Thanos Imperative: Ignition (2010) #1, and Thanos Imperative (2010) #1-6. That’s really the climax of Abnett & Lanning’s original Guardians run, so it makes sense to include it here.

I’d really recommend starting with Volume 1, because the circumstances that form this team continue to play out through the remainder of the run.

I do think it’s odd that this isn’t also solicited to include Thanos Imperative: Devastation (2010) #1, unless it pops up in the indicia when the digital version releases next week. I suppose they could be saving it for a follow-up, since the conclusion of Thanos Imperative has a strong link to how Bendis’s run begins.

That means the speculated Volume 3 would likely be Devastation #1, Annihilators (2010) #1-4, Annihilators: Earthfall (2011) #1-4, and inito Bendis’s Guardians of the Galaxy #0.1 & 1-10. That would leave a solid Vol. 4 to take us through Secret Wars. [Read more…] about New Comics & Collected Editions Releases: Marvel Comics – January 8 2025

Marvel Solo Heroes Omnibus Mapping (A-M) for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot

April 1, 2024 by krisis

Until April 5, I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted Marvel omnibus volumes every day! Today you’re in for a LOT of mapping, because this post covers every non-mutant, non-Spider solo hero I have yet to cover! That’s more than 100 maps of potential omnibuses for dozens of amazing Marvel characters starts here (and continues in the next post)!

This post explains titles and potential Omnibus Mapping for entries on the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot. You can vote right now (until 5 April 2024 @ midnight US ET) or watch our mega-length announcement stream reviewing every single voting option.

Below I cover America Chavez, Ant-Man (Pym, Lang, & O’Grady), Black Cat, Black Knight, Black Panther, Black Widow, Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell & Danvers), Conan, Crystar, Darkhawk, Deadpool, Deathlok, Echo, Falcon, Frankenstein, Galactus, Hawkeye, Hellcat – Patsy Walker, Hellstrom, Hercules, Iron Fist, Jack of Hearts, Jessica Jones, Ka-Zar, Kang, Killraven, Kingpin, and Luke Cage.

It’s so much mapping that I had to break it into two parts so I wouldn’t break your browser! See the next post for the remainder of the alphabet and the rest of the maps.

We don’t have many options left to explore, but one of them is THE BIGGEST category of books on the pool: mutants! Stay tuned this week for a massive amount of X-Men mapping!

If you’re not sure of what to vote for, stick around for my explanations. Or, if you’ve already voted, learn why the team behind the poll decided on these books and titles – including some of my mistakes and regrets as one of the editors of the options on the final poll.

Or… just find some great comics to read!

Remember: These mappings are just my suggestion of how Marvel could assemble these books. They are meant to help you decide on your votes and build your personal reading list, but your vote on the poll is NOT an endorsement of my specific map. It’s a vote in favor of Marvel creating a book with that title or covering that period.

Over-the-top comics posts like this one are made possible via the support of Patrons of Crushing Krisis. For less than the cost of a single comic issue a month you can fuel my in-depth comics coverage, plus gain access to dozens of exclusive collecting guides & reading orders – including all of the Crushing Comics Guide to Marvel Comics.

Captain America, Iron Man, & Thor Omnibus Mapping for the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot

March 29, 2024 by krisis

Until April 5, I’ll be loosely mapping missing and most-wanted Marvel omnibus volumes every day! Today I’ll be looking at all of the omnibuses that don’t yet exist for Marvel’s holy trinity of Avengers – Captain America, Iron Man, and Thor (including other Asgardian heroes).

This post explains titles and potential Captain America, Thor, & Iron Man Omnibus Mapping for entries on the Tigereyes Most Wanted Marvel Omnibus 12th Annual Secret Ballot. You can vote right now (until 5 April 2024 @ midnight US ET) or watch our mega-length announcement stream reviewing every single voting option.

All three of Marvel’s trinity of prime Avengers have had their own multiple-installment movie franchises, which means they uncoincidentally have some of the best omnibus coverage of every Marvel solo hero (except for Moon Knight!). But, each of these characters still need more than a handful of additional omnibuses to cover their entire comic lines from their debut to present day. Plus, we’ll look at a quintet of supporting Asgardian heroes – Beta Ray Bill, Thunderstrike, Valkyrie, Jane Foster, and Angela.

Or… just find some great comics to read!

New Comics & Collected Editions: Marvel Comics – April 26, 2023

April 23, 2023 by krisis

It’s time to take a look at what’s out from Marvel Comics this week! This post covers Marvel Comics April 26 2023 releases.

This list includes every comic and digital comic out from Marvel this week, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats. For each new release, I’ll point you to the right Crushing Comics guide.

Marvel Comics April 26 2023 Collected Editions

All-Out Avengers: Teachable Moments (2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302947019 / digital)
See Guide to Avengers Flagship Titles (2010 – Present). This new “All-Out” brand for Marvel indicates an all-action series that is a non-stop five issue fight, here created by Derek Landy & Greg Land. The Landy-Land team continues to a new volume, Avengers Beyond, below.

Cosmic Ghost Rider by Donny Cates (2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302949891 / digital)
See Guide to Ghost Rider. This paperbacks collects all of Donny Cates’s Cosmic Ghost Rider material, which is a subset of the material from the 2021 omnibus. However, there is really just one full CGR series in this collection – his first 2018 five-issue limited series. All the other material in this book are his debut in Thanos (2016) and guest-starring and team membership issues. Bottom line: This is the right buy if you’re a Cates fan or looking purely for origin material, otherwise you should buy the omnibus instead.

Deadpool & Cable Omnibus (2023 oversize hardcover, ISBN 978-1302949921)
See Guide to Deadpool or Guide to Cable for this complete reprint of their 50-issue 2004 team-up series.

Fantastic Four by Millar & Hitch Omnibus (2023 oversize hardcover, ISBN 978-1302949716 / digital)
See Guide to Fantastic Four. This omnibus fits directly prior to Jonathan Hickman’s run and pair of omnibuses. This run’s reputation tends to be overshadowed by Hickman, but there are some enjoyable big ideals here and I enjoy seeing Millar in his less-audacious mode when he’s not writing mature books.

Midnight Suns (2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302947187 / digital TBA)
See Guide to Ghost Rider or Guide to Blade. This series featured a peculiar hodgepodge of a team of supernatural heroes… and Logan, with a cast of Magik, Wolverine, Blade, Spirit Rider, and Nico Minoru.

Thor Epic Collection Vol. 9: Even An Immortal Can Die (2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302948689 / digital)
See Guide to Thor – The Odinson. This material has been covered in Masterworks and in bits and pieces across several old trades, but it has never been collected comprehensively in paperback before.

Strange, Vol. 2: The Doctor Strange of Death (2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302946746 / digital)
See Guide to Doctor Strange. The second (and final) volume of Jed MacKay’s volume of Clea as the Sorcerer Supreme before the relaunch of Doctor Strange last month.

X-Terminators (2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302946999 / digital)
See Guide to X-Men – The Age of Krakoa. Leah Williams takes Dazzler, Jubilee, Boom Boom, and Wolverine (X-23) on a high-action, high-comedy spin.
