Missing Marvel Launches

[SilverScarlet]

Was that officially confirmed by Marvel, though? 'Cause as far as I know, those collections were found on a catalog website, but no one knows if that was cataloged before or after the pandemic. If it was before, this might not be up to date.

Was on both Bleeding Cool and Newsarama, with the latter site providing cover artwork, so it sounds pretty legit.

You mean Bleeding Cool and GamesRadar. Newsarama was absorbed by GamesRadar on Monday.

And BC has the cover art too. The problem is, it's not proof. We don't know if those listings were created in March or earlier... and consequently, have outdated information. The dates could be wrong, they could yet be cancelled. We need something from Marvel itself.

You mean this article? The one that doesn't say anywhere that the books are going straight to graphic novel, but merely lists graphic novel listings? The ones that still list "Contains ______ #1-whatever" in the descriptions indicating individual issues coming out and not going straight to OGN?

Graphic novels are often listed well before a series is even launched as the get solicited to book stores and carriers via a different distribution than Diamond. People regularly deep dive Amazon for unlisted graphic novels because they get information before the direct market.

Also GamesRadar totally nicked the story from Bleeding Cool as well. They do that a lot.

You should have titled this thread "Failure To Launch". It's catchy, and sounds less depressing.

How does "Missing Marvel Launches" sound depressing? Frankly, I've seen the way you've been commenting on other threads - sounds like the problem may lie with you, Mr. Anthony.

Happy Spiderman Noir isn't going the digital route.

[pageturner]

Makes you wonder if Marvel is taking a serious look at all these titles and wondering if they need to thin it down.

I imagine the ones that are completed will at least get a digital launch.

Is Empyre an event I dont know about? Maybe tied to SW event

Considering how Ms. Marvel ties-in to Outlawed with Kamala still in a coma, maybe they're saving the Champions relaunch and the rest of the books for October?

Question, did Black Widow #1 come out? On a different forum someone was asking about issue #2, whining it doesn't have a release date yet.

Because it's so...real. "Failure To Launch" sounds like a funny misadventure lol.

Black Widow #1 comes out in September!

Whatever they decide, I hope they decide fast. Otherwise, this will be the most piecemeal event I've ever seen.

They must be. Champions #1 definitely can't be released before Ms. Marvel #14, so we can rule out digital exclusive at this point. And if it was out in September I think we'd have heard about it at the same time as Ms. Marvel?
