Marvel recently announced their titles for Summer 2013.

theartofironman3The list of titles is mostly Marvel Now titles, as the automatic schedule of new titles finally overlaps with last Fall’s launch/rearrangement of Marvel’s superhero titles.

Also included are tie-ins to the blockbuster release of Iron Man 3 (as seen in the first title below), as well as quite a few archive editions from the past century (Longshot!  Fall of the Mutants!  Defenders!).  There’s even a Wolverine index, although how one condenses all of his appearances into 232 pages makes me wonder.

I’d link to Marvel’s website, but it’s a mess.  PITA-ful.  For example, the new release calendar has only two titles listed for all of MARCH.  I suggest you search the EANs below via Google.

Anything exciting?  Worth the wait?

  1. I sure wish these included the information on what is collected in them, but I understand that might not be in the solicits.

  2. Unfortunate that there doesn’t appear to be volume 3 omnibus of the original Iron Man run coming for the latest move (though the Michelinie/Larson omnibus is very welcome.)

    BTW thanks Torsten for the much improved formatting of this list!!

  3. I cut the descriptions so that the list would not run forever.

    Do a Google search by the EAN, and you’ll find extra information about contents. (For example, Essential Defenders – Volume 7 collects Defenders (1972) 126-139, Iceman (1984) 1-4, Beauty and the Beast (1984) 1-4 )
