May 2023 solicitations

[Digifiend]

May solicits are out. Who would've expected a Liz Allan solo book? There's also a bunch of other new #1s, including Spider-Man 2099, Silk, and of course, Avengers.

Never felt so underwhelmed by Marvel sollicitations.
So many, way too many Spider/symbiotes related comics. There is less and less diversity in the comics.
And there are 3 different Avengers series, but all are featuring basically the same old, classic Avengers. I miss post Secret Wars Marvel

[Digifiend]

Spider-Man is definitely Marvel's Batman, lol. Don't be surprised if another Avengers book launches in June. If not then, definitely July. It'd spin out of the FCBD X-Men/Avengers comic (it's probably Uncanny Avengers vol 4).

[Noek]

DAN ABNETT BACK AT MARVEL! This makes me really excited.

[protege]

Another light month for me; I think marvel has lost their marbles.��

I thought it was just me. My eyes were glazing over with all the symbiotes and Spider-Man books.

I can't believe there are two Ghost Rider ONGOINGS and now a mini-series?!?!


If it weren't for Jed McKay, I'd be out of here.


Doctor Strange and Clea and going to TRY the Avengers.

[Steroid]

Avengers
Doctor Strange
Fantastic Four
Moon Knight

Truthfully I will be getting a lot more than those 4 but I'm not particularly excited for them so they don't deserve to be listed with the Jed Mackay books that have me hyped AF and the breath of fresh air that is North's FF run.

I'm a big-time Spider-Man fan, but even I can agree that's a bit much when there are so many (other) great characters that aren't getting (as much) spotlight or recognition from Marvel. The last thing I want is for Spidey to end up where Batman is over at DC, with his ubiquity making him outright resented if not flat-out hated by a significant portion of the readership for getting most of the company's attention, effort, and investment. As for missing post-Secret Wars Marvel, there was at least a good-faith effort to expand the image and representation of what superheroes could or should look like, before the whole thing got bogged down in B.S.

Yayyy....the return of Symbiote events .

[SilverScarlet]

Personally, I’m A LOT more excited about Marvel right now than I am about DC, and have been for the last year or so!
That said, I agree....WAY too many Spider books!

Pretty strong month for me.

In a previous thread talking about characters that no longer felt popular I put Venom as one of them. After seeing that list how wrong I was lol. Spider-Man and Venom dominated that list. I am excited to see Silk though, haven't read Silk material in awhile.

Dropping Spiderman book - Damn End of Spiderverse is going on forever.

Yeah, weirded out by that. Chances are it's just solicits-speak for "the last arc had consequences that carry over into this first new issue of a brand new story"

[Digifiend]

The solicit specifically says "End of Spider-Verse continues".

In a previous thread talking about characters that no longer felt popular I put Venom as one of them. After seeing that list how wrong I was lol. Spider-Man and Venom dominated that list. I am excited to see Silk though, haven't read Silk material in awhile.

Read this week's Spider-Man. It's pretty much a what if tale, about if Peter never became Spider-Man but Cindy still became Silk. spoilers:

It's actually in continuity - Peter was severed from the web last issue and reality's been altered - turns out that without him being around, Cindy refuses to go into the bunker and ends up fighting all the enemies he would've. Peter ends up becoming her technical support guy, building spider-tracers and other tech that he would've used as Spider-Man. The timeline will probably be reset in a later issue, as there's no way they'll leave Peter (and Jessica Drew) in that situation.
