February 8, 2025 by krisis

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

This week in Image Comics: Jason Aaron bugs out, I Hate Fairyland ends an arc and in Deluxe, Spawn heats up, nightmare fuel in The Moon is Following Us, the very clever Lucky Devils, a lovey-dovey Creepshow, Kill or Be Killed compendium, and more!

The Krisis Pick of the Week: I’m definitely excited to read more of The Lucky Devils (2025), but I’m even more curious to read Bug Wars (2025) #1! I enjoy when Jason Aaron tackles kids as protagonists, I love the idea of a brutal bug war happening in your own back yard, and he’s assembled an astonishing creative team with Mahmud Asrar, Matt Wilson, and Becca Carey.

This post includes every comic out from Image Comics this week on February 12, plus collected editions. This isn’t the typical comic releases post you can find on other sites. Why? I explain each collection and comment on every series with a new issue out this week to help you figure out if they’re for you.

Plus, for some long-running series, I’ll point you to a personally-curated guide within the Crushing Comics Guide to Indie Comics to find out how to collect that title in full!

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

And now, onto Image Comics February 12 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.

The Krisis Pick of the Week: This is an easy pick, as Jed MacKay continues his death-grip on my most-anticipated Marvel Comics. The Avengers (2023) #23 not only continues his fun space heist romp, it has more art from by rising star Farid Karami.

Free Comic Book Day: Marvel Comics FCBD 2024, May 4 2024 – Every Issue Explained!

April 30, 2024 by krisis

This Saturday, May 4, is Free Comic Book Day 2024! That means you get an extra and extra-special new releases post for Marvel Comics. This post covers Marvel Comics FCBD 2024 releases – explaining the contents and background of every issue. Missed this week’s regular releases? Check out last week’s post covering Marvel Comics May 1 2024 new releases – which will all be available in shops on FCBD 2024!

This year from Marvel Comics FCBD 2024: the first drips of Blood Hunt from Jed MacKay, a preview of Gail Simone’s X-Men, all-new Spider-Man India by Nikesh Shukla, Star Wars & Darth Vader by Soule & Pak, the return of Ultimate Marvel Ultimates by Deniz Camp, and a hint of the final phase of Zeb Wells’s run on Amazing Spider-Man!

This list includes every comic and digital comic out from Marvel this week, plus collected editions in omnibus, hardcover, paperback, and digest-sized formats. I recap and review every new single issue. Plus, for every new release, I’ll point you to the right guide within my Crushing Comics Guide to Marvel Comics to find out how to collect each character in full – and, if a guide is linked from this post, that means it is updated through the present day!

Marvel Comics FCBD 2024 Titles

Saturday May 4 2024 is Free Comic Book Day 2024! Free Comic Book Day (FCBD) is a special promotional event for local comic shops that falls on the first Saturday of May. Publishers big and small release promotional comics at low or no cost to stores, which they can give away for free. That draws in a huge crowd of both established fans and curious newbies. It gives stores the chance to throw special events, sell tons of stock, and establish new customers.

Marvel Comics FCBD issues tend to include 2-3 stories each. That usually includes least one unique story that will be excerpted in a collection within the next year. Sometimes books are a pair of unique stories, but they can also include recent reprints or teases of upcoming comics.

Here’s the line-up of Marvel Comics FCBD 2024 issues:

Free Comic Book Day 2024: Blood Hunt / X-Men #1
Free Comic Book Day 2024: Marvel Voices #1 [featuring Spider-Man India]
Free Comic Book Day 2024: Spidey and His Amazing Friends #1
Free Comic Book Day 2024: Star Wars/Darth Vader #1
Free Comic Book Day 2024: Ultimate Universe / Spider-Man #1

If there’s a big surprise here for me, it’s the lack of a Deadpool / Wolverine issue! With Deadpool & Wolverine as the only major MCU entry coming in 2024 it seems wild not to capitalize on that excitement. At least for X-Men ’97 there’s a Jubilee story in the Blood Hunt / X-Men issue.

Want to know more about all five of these issues, their stories, and their creators? Keep reading! [Read more…] about Free Comic Book Day: Marvel Comics FCBD 2024, May 4 2024 – Every Issue Explained!
