Marvel United: Multiverse enters its final three hours on Kickstarter!

February 8, 2023 by krisis

Marvel United Multiverse Kickstarter Campaign hero imageWe’re down to the final countdown to the end of the Marvel United: Multiverse Kickstarter from CMON! The campaign ends in exactly three hours at 9pm US Eastern Time on February 9th.

If you haven’t pledged yet for this massive amount of Marvel board-gaming goodness, this is your final chance to purchase many of these expansions and characters forever – as a number of them will not be offered at retail and there is no guarantee of a reprint.

However, this campaign is reprinting the sets of exclusive promotional stretch goal figures from both of the prior campaigns. I have both of these boxes, and they are HUGE and packed with dozens of extra heroes and villains to expand your gameplay. They can be pricey to hunt down on the aftermarket (especially with their bonus “all-in” figures included), so now is the time to grab them.

Also, I thought it was fun to see that one of the final Marvel United: Multiverse stretch goals were none other than the star of my newly-released Guide to Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur!

I had no idea I’d be releasing the guide on the same day they would turn up in the campaign. Now that’s some terrific synergy!

The past few days have also brought us Lizard, Werewolf by Night, Mole Man, Agent Venom, Moonstone, White Widow, Stature, and KNULL!!! Right now we’re ticking toward unlocking Purple Man as a villain. Who will be next? It seems like the odds-on bet is Mephisto, but I am still pulling for Rictor, Magma, or Karma – our only missing mutants for a full set of 1980s X-book casts.

I’ll be back after the close of the campaign to recap all of the characters it contains, to make fantasy predictions for who should appear in a Season 4 campaign, and maybe even share some of my hundreds of homebrew heroes.

Watch me announce new Marvel collections with Near Mint Condition LIVE on February 9, 2023 @ 1pm ET

February 8, 2023 by krisis

In exactly 24hrs I will be broadcasting LIVE from New Zealand on the Near Mint Condition YouTube channel with my colleague and dear friend Omar and the incredible Kurtis from the Epic Marvel Podcast. We’re joining forces to announce some upcoming Marvel trade paperbacks, plus recap the astounding slate of 36 Marvel omnibuses planned from now through the end of 2023.

Watch Krisis on Near Mint Condition on Thursday, February 9, 2023 @ 1pm ET

Near Mint Condition has become the #1 source of collected edition news on the entire internet, which includes being an official source of Marvel collections announcements long before they hit solicitations. If you are an omnibus collector you absolutely need to subscribe to the channel, because Omar announces every new Marvel Omnibus and Omnibus reprint! Plus, he does awesome stuff like holding a monthly budgeting meeting to help folks manage their spending on new comics and collections.

I have known Omar online for nearly a decade – long before I started making guest appearances on his channel for our special “Map My X” series of collected edition mapping videos. You might even remember him from his guest spot on The HiX-Men Report back in 2019 talking about Powers of X (2019) #3. Past being a font of comics news and knowledge, he is a truly kind and thoughtful person. He cares about cultivating an open and accepting community of fans at Near Mint Condition and across the wider comics internet.

Tomorrow will be the first time I get to join in making an exclusive announcement of brand new Marvel material! Omar and Marvel would send a special forces team to my house in New Zealand to cut my connect to CK if I revealed a single thing ahead of time… but, I think I can safely say that one of the collections is for a series I very unexpectedly loved given the combination of writer and creator.

That’s all I can say until tomorrow, so please tune in! And, of course, if you miss seeing us live, you can replay the video any time.

New Comics & Collected Editions: Marvel Comics – February 8, 2023

February 8, 2023 by krisis

Welcome to the second in my trial run of a return to new release posts! This post covers Marvel Comics February 8 2023 releases.

Avengers by Jason Aaron, Volume 11 - History's Mightiest Heroes, out from Marvel Comics February 8 2023This 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 February 8 2023 Collected Editions

Avengers by Jonathan Hickman Omnibus, Vol. 1
(2017 hardcover, ISBN 978-1302907082 / 2023 hardcover, ISBN 978-1302945473 / digital)
This is the massively-satisfying first half of Hickman’s Avengers run, taking it through the end of the Infinity event in perfect Hickman-approved reading order. Although I’ve been known to have complains about this run, they’re 100% from the back half – you cannot go wrong with this (and I’m a rare dissenter on the run as a whole). See the Guide to Avengers Flagships (2010 – Present Day).

Avengers By Jason Aaron Vol. 11: History’s Mightiest Heroes
(2022 paperback, ISBN 978-1302928858 / digital)
This is the final volume of this series collected on its own before it heads into the climactic Avengers Assemble crossover. See Guide to Avengers Flagships (2010 – Present Day).

Avengers: Kree/Skrull War Gallery Edition HC
(2023 oversize “Gallery” hardcover, ISBN 978-1302949594)
These gallery editions are even larger than omnibus-size – they’re similar to DC Absolutes. And, if any classic run of art merits one, it’s Kree/Skrull war, which contains one of my favorite issues of all time, Avengers (1963) #93 – “Journey to the Center of the Android.” See Guide to Avengers (1963 – 1996).

Mighty Marvel Masterworks: Captain Marvel Vol. 1 – The Coming of Captain Marvel
(2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302948894 / digital)
This book is part of Marvel’s new paperback Masterworks recollection line, which does not always line up directly with the breaks in the original Masterworks line. See Guide to Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers or Guide to Captain Marvel, Mar-Vell (eventually).

Star Wars Legends Epic Collection: The Menace Revealed Vol. 3
(2023 paperback, ISBN 978-1302932312 / digital)
This release (and the announcement of some Epics for later in 2023) brings us tantalizingly close to full coverage of Star Wars Legends in Epic format. Of course… Marvel hasn’t reprinted a single volume, so some of them have risen to omnibus-prices on the aftermarket! We’ll see if Marvel releasing the actual omnibuses deflates that a bit. See Guide to Star Wars Legends (Expanded Universe, 1977-2015).

X-Men: The Animated Series – The Adaptations Omnibus
(2023 oversize hardcover, ISBN 978-1302947774 / digital)
This one is PACKED with nostalgia for us 90s X-kids. It collects the three ongoing series comic adaptations-slash-extensions of the iconic X-Men Animated series. Collects X-Men Adventures (1992) #1-15, X-Men Adventures (1994) #1-13 and X-Men Adventures (1995) #1-13 in full. See Guide to X-Men Ongoing Titles.

Read on for a rundown of Marvel Comics February 8 2023 single-issue releases, including a link to their accompanying guide pages on Crushing Comics.

Guide to Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur – now available to the public!

February 8, 2023 by krisis

I’m happy to announce that my Guide to Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur (& Moon Boy, too!) is now available to all readers to celebrate the launch of Moon Girl’s new Disney Channel and Disney+ series out this week!

Guide to Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur

Guide to Moon Girl & Devil Dinosaur

This guide includes a Devil Dinosaur reading order for his 40 years of stories starting from his introduction by Jack Kirby in 1977, plus a complete Moon Girl reading order to all of her appearances in the Marvel-616 Universe starting from her debut in Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur (2016) #1.

Lunella Lafayette is a rare young Marvel character who exists all on her own in the Marvel-616 universe without needing to be added to a team or aged up. Her entire concept is that she’s an amazing girl genius in an average grown-up world, who also happens to be an Inhuman with a psychic connection to one giant red Tyrannosaurus Rex! Lunella isn’t meant to be a full-time superhero, but a school kid navigating her frustrations with being super-smart while still having a lot of growing up to do.

This guide exists thanks to the ongoing support of the amazing Patrons of Crushing Krisis. They’ve had exclusive access to the guide for five years! Now, the guide is open to the public and updated through the present day.
