Marvel Comics has unveiled its full May 2023 solicitations, and the publisher is heating things up for the summer months with a host of new titles and stories.
Right off the bat, just as the new Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse animated movie is coming out in theaters, Marvel Comics is planning the release of a new Edge of Spider-Verse anthology title featuring numerous Spider-heroes from around the Multiverse.
And speaking of Spider-Man, Miles Morales will take on one of Spidey's deadliest foes, Carnage, in a story titled Carnage Reigns on the 30th anniversary of the landmark '90s event Maximum Carnage.
Marvel's making May a Spidey threepeat with a big story featuring Peter Parker in Amazing Spider-Man #25 and #26 which Marvel has billed as "the most shocking Spider-Man moment in 50 years" - which is exactly how long ago Gwen Stacy died in Amazing Spider-Man #121.
On the non-Spider-Man front, Marvel is celebrating another big anniversary in 2023, releasing an oversized one-shot titled Fury in honor of the 60th anniversary of SHIELD super spy Nick Fury's 1963 debut.
Meanwhile, the Hulk is getting a new annual that returns to his horror roots with a found-footage story that also brings in the classic Marvel kaiju Giganto. And in the landmark Fantastic Four #700 (which is also #7 of the current volume, thanks to legacy numbering), Doctor Doom will take on the FF in a battle that spans all of time and space.
So check out all of Marvel's May 2023 solicits and covers, and as always, you can also check out the Marvel February 2023 solicitations, the Marvel March 2023 solicitations, and the Marvel April 2023 solicitations, and/or check out all of Marvel and DC's recent listings here on our solicitations tab.
