AVENGERS: CURSE OF THE MAN-THING

Marvel Comics will commemorate the 50th anniversary of Man-Thing with a new series this March.

Avengers: Curse of the Man-Thing, a three-part Marvel Universe-spanning saga, will redefine one of Marvel's most unique characters for a new age.

Writer Steve Orlando makes his Marvel Comics debut with the series, joined by artist Francesco Mobili. Each issue will focus on a different corner of the Marvel Universe, starting with Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

Here's how Marvel describes the story:

"For decades, the Man-Thing has haunted the Florida Everglades. Now a new enemy has hijacked his body on a quest to take his incendiary abilities global! The Marvel Universe wakes to fear as gargantuan monoliths menace cities worldwide, with only the Avengers standing between the population of Earth and a planetwide inferno. Can they save Man-Thing in time to douse the fires? And does the man inside the thing, Ted Sallis, even want to be saved? All this plus a sensational new villain designed by Marvel's Stormbreaker Carmen Carnero await readers in the exciting opening tale that will kick off an unforgettable journey for Man-Thing and your favorite Marvel heroes including the X-Men, Spider-Man and more."

"It's a huge honor to be asked to make my debut as part of a character's anniversary. There's an incredible amount of faith and opportunity there, and it's something I never take lightly," Orlando said. "It is honestly amazing to be welcomed to Marvel and tell this nailbiter of a story that's going to remind people just how unique Man-Thing is. He'll be better positioned than ever to shock and scare readers and villains alike, but first he'll have to survive an attack that cuts him to his core and sets the Marvel Universe ablaze."

"If you like super heroes and the supernatural, you¡¯ll love this high octane celebration of one of Marvel¡¯s strangest characters," editor Mark Paniccia said. "It feels like its own big event. And Steve's epic story will reveal, amongst other things, an unexpected new dimension of the Marvel Universe."

March will also see Marvel heroes transformed into outrageous Man-Thing personas on stunning variant covers by today/s best artists including Superlog, Bernard Chang, Greg Land, Sara Pichelli and more.

"Demon Days: X-Men will be the start of a five-part prestige series bringing to life characters like Wolverine, Psylocke, Venom, and more in Momoko's one-of-a-kind style. Each issue of the series, released once every three months, will feature some of the most popular Marvel heroes, setting the stage for an all-new saga that will leave fans mesmerized.

One demon is black and white with a terrifying red tongue and another may be the strongest demon there is! Ready your katana and enter a mysterious world of demons, monsters, mutants, and magic in a stunning premiere issue that will present readers with a revolutionary reimagination of the Marvel Universe that could only come from Peach Momoko."

"Batman: Soul of the Dragon does a deep dive into Elseworlds vibes by putting Batman in the midst of the swinging 1970s. Faced with a deadly menace from his past, and along with his mentor O-Sensei, Bruce Wayne must enlist the help of three former classmates -- world-renowned martial artists Richard Dragon, Ben Turner and Lady Shiva -- to battle the monsters of this world and beyond."
