It's a little bit later in the month than usual, but Marvel Comics has finally dropped its full April 2024 solicitations, including several big new debuts, and the launch of the much-hyped Blood Hunt event.
Blood Hunt is a unique Marvel Comics event in that the publisher is releasing two separate editions of the comic; one regular edition and one 'Red Band' edition with extra blood and guts and more pages.
Seeing as how Blood Hunt is a story about the Avengers, Moon Knight, Doctor Strange, Blade, and more taking on a global threat from vampires, it seems the Red Band edition will likely make good use of that extra space and more mature rating. Blood Hunt #1 technically comes out May 1, but it's included right here in Marvel's April solicits.
April also brings a big milestone for Daredevil, who will celebrate 60 years since his 1964 debut. In recognition, April's Daredevil #8 will be oversized, clocking in at 88 pages.
Meanwhile, a new Thor will debut in Roxxon Presents: Thor #1, which features the story of a new Thor who is owned entirely by the Roxxon Corporation, which purchased the rights to the in-universe version of Marvel Comics under the command of the villain Dario Agger.
But that's just scratching the surface of another packed month of releases. Read on for a closer look at some of the biggest highlights from Marvel's April 2024 solicitations followed by all of the comics and trades. If you still want more, you can also check out all of Marvel and DC's recent listings here on our solicitations tab.
The big news from Marvel this month is Blood Hunt, the publisher's gore-soaked vampire crossover, which writer Jed MacKay described to us this week as the "bloodiest event in Marvel Comics history." I love a vampire story, so I'm personally stoked - or should that be staked? - for this one, even if it is a bit odd seeing it in April not October!
Elsewhere, Spider-Man: Shadow of the Green Goblin #1 delves into the history of one of comics' greatest villains. We've all loved and feared Norman Osborn as the infamous villain, but this book promises to reveal the secret history of the Proto-Goblin... Consider us intrigued.
Finally for now, I've mentioned it before, but I'm really intrigued to see what Peach Momoko brings to Ultimate X-Men. It sounds like #2 will finally give Maystorm, who Momoko created, a proper introduction after her brief appearance on a 'New Champions' variant cover last year. Exciting stuff. Until next time, happy reading.

It’s been 19 years since The Office premiered on NBC and ruined my life. Not because I hate the show — I love all the good episodes and loathe all the bad ones — but because its massive, still-ongoing success has meant lots of sitcoms in the ensuing decades have adopted its mockumentary format. I’ve liked plenty of those shows, from the sitcom-y What We Do In the Shadows to the more straight-faced Cunk on Earth. But sometimes the limits of the format are more pronounced than the benefits. That’s how I’ve felt about Abbott Elementary lately, and its third season premiere continued to make me wish that the cameras were not a character in the show.
Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 has been a predictably big hit, but despite that, the game has seen surprisingly little in terms of post-launch and content beyond the usual big-fixing patches. A New Game+ mode was promised to arrive before the end of 2023, but was ultimately pushed back to sometime in 2024. Well, it seems that sometime will be early next month, as Insomniac have announced New Game+, some new Spidey suits, and more is coming in early March.

Friends, it is finally time for me to discourse unto you about my great love of balls. The roots of my enthusiasm go back to pinball machines - both the fancier, arcade variety that transmogrify into e.g. screaming robot skulls when you achieve a high-enough multiplier, and the crappy, play-at-home variety that are basically a canted wooden sheet with some numbers drawn on it. But it wasn't till I embraced the holy medium of videogames that I realised the full potential of balldom.
