Marvel Comics has been lighting the internet up revealing its post Secret Wars 2015 All-New All-Different Marvel branded new ongoing series. It was originally announced as approximately 55 to 60 titles launching between September 2015 and February 2016.
The February 2016 Marvel Comics solicitations new ongoing series for All-New All-Different Marvel have also been revealed.
However, the ongoing series announced so far put us over 70 so it could be actually as much as 75 new series in that timeframe. And, some announced ongoing series have been pushed back later in 2016 for various reasons.
The announcements started during San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) International 2015, where Marvel executives also revealed 15 ongoing series to retailers without creative teams. Alongside that, Marvel Comics rolled out two hotly discussed teaser images with a collage of characters associated with, at the time, ongoing series that had yet to be announced (see above and below).
With that, to get you caught up, the ongoing comic book series and associated creative teams that have announced so far for the post Secret Wars 2015 All-New All-Different Marvel are below:
- Initially announced 9 new series starting from September 2015;
- Followed by a massive reveal of 36 new series in its September 2015 preview book;
- 4 new series to launch between October 2015 and November 2015.
- 3 new series as part 1 of its December 2015 shipping new series; and
- 4 more new series to round-out December 2015’s new Marvel ongoing series.
- 5 new series rolled out heading into Marvel’s January 2016 solicitations.
- 1 new series seemingly for January 2016 or February 2016.
