The Krisis Pick of the Week: As much as I am intrigued about where we left off in Doctor Strange of Asgard (2025) last month, this pick is absolutely Star Wars: Jedi Knights (2025) #2! Marc Guggenheim blew me away with what might’ve been my favorite Star Wars comic issue of all time. Was that a fluke? Can he possible do it again next week?! I can’t wait to find out.

The Krisis Pick of the Week: I am moderately hyped for the new Doctor Strange of Asgard (2024), but my Marvel pick this week is The Ultimates (2024) #10 from Denis Camp & Juan Frigeri. I’m extremely intrigued to see how Camp re-interprets a pair of World World II characters in Namor and Red Skull.

Doom Academy (2025) #1, a Marvel Comics February 19 2025 new releaseNext week is the 8th new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics February 19 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics February 12 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: One of Marvel’s hugest release weeks OF ALL TIME! Doom Academy, a Battleworld omnibus, Hickman’s Avengers take their fight against xenomorphs to space, Wanda the Queen of Chaos, Casey’s Weapon X-Men debut, Storm’s eternity, Thunderbolts return, and so much more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This might surprise you, but for me it’s Doom Academy (2025) #1! The Strange Academy kids eventually won me over, and I’m really curious to see how their personalities evolve while under Doctor Doom’s tutelage. Plus, Kid Krisis has all of their trade paperbacks and has literally been asking me about when this new issue would come out at least once a week since Marvel teased it late last year.

Storm (2024) #4, a Marvel Comics January 15 2025 new release

Next week is the 3rd new comic book day of 2025! This post covers Marvel Comics January 15 2025 new releases. Missed this week’s releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics January 8 2025 new releases.

This week in Marvel Comics: Blade Epics hit the 90s, the Road to Onslaught re-collected, Aliens in Paradise, the Deadly Phil Coulson, an Asgardian jam, Rogue in the Savage Land, Storm vs. Doom, Ultimate Wolverine debuts, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: Storm (2024) #4! With more issues, I think this series could have easily been my favorite comic of 2024. Murewa Ayodele is walking a tightrope of plot that could result in a major fall, but it feels like his balance just gets better with every issue. Having Lucas Werneck along for art helps! See below for more thoughts on this excellent solo run.

Marvel Comics January 15 2025 Collected Editions

Blade Epic Collection Vol. 2: Nightstalkers
(2025 paperback, ISBN 978-1302956547 / digital)
See Guide to Blade. The Blade Epic Collection line starts with a bang by picking him up in the 90s, recollecting Tomb of Dracula (1991) #1-4 and pressing onward to Nightstalkers (1992) #1-6. Issues #2-5 are collected here in color for the first time!

That also hints that a first Epic Collection will wind up being a slimmed down version of the Blade: The Early Years omnibus that ends on Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #64, which makes sense since it collects a heck of a lot of Tomb of Dracula (1972).

Marvel Masterworks: Ka-Zar Vol. 4
(2025 hardcover, ISBN 978-1302955601 / digital)
Damnit, I really need a Ka-Zar guide! Marvel presses on with an unexpected fourth volume of this Masterworks line that collects Ka-Zar (1974) #10-20, [Uncanny] X-Men (1963) #115-116; and material from Rampaging Hulk (1977) #9 and Marvel Fanfare (1982) #56-59.

I was truly puzzled that this is leap-frogging Ka-Zar’s entire 1981 series to pick up the later Shanna The She-Devil story from the end of Marvel Fanfare until I realized that story is told in flashback and fits here – not only in continuity, but in when Steve Gerber originally wrote the script!

That makes this an incredibly rare Masterwork that skips ahead for later material, alongside Ms. Marvel Vol. 2 (which picks up Chris Claremont’s unfinished Ms. Marvel (1977) issues that were burned off as anthology stories over a decade later).
