Tales of Seikyu, an upcoming co-op fantasy farming sim blending Rune Factory vibes with Japanese folklore, is the first new game of its kind to really catch my attention in as long as I can remember.
X-Men, Spider-Man, Captain America and all of Marvel's March 2024 solicitations revealed
21.12.2023 - 22:52 / gamesradar.com / Mary Jane Watson
The third of the new Ultimate Universe books drops in March, with writer/artist Peach Momoko's hotly-anticipated Ultimate X-Men putting a whole new spin on Marvel's mutants. It looks fantastic and is backed up by new issues of both Ultimate Black Panther and Ultimate Spider-Man.
Back on Earth-616, new alliances are being forged. Peter Parker and Miles Morales are finally getting their own team book, The Spectacular Spider-Men, while Mary Jane Watson is joining forces with Felicia Hardy for an action-packed limited series, Jackpot and Black Cat. Meanwhile Web of Spider-Man promises to set up the next year's worth of Spidey stories and Ms. Marvel continues in her new life as a mutant with the start of a new arc from writers Iman Vellani and Sabir Pirzada, and artist Scott Godlewski.
Finally for now, March is also the month of Free Comic Book Day, and Marvel have revealed the details of 2024's offerings. You'll be able to pick up special new comics for Spider-Man & The Ultimate Universe, Blood Hunt/X-Men, Spidey & His Amazing Friends, Marvel's Voices, and Star Wars in all participating retailers. FCBD is taking place on Saturday May 4, so pop it in your diaries now!
I'm writing this note just before shutting down my laptop for the holidays. In Marvel solicitations land, however, it's almost Free Comic Book Day 2024. What is time? When are comics? And where have all my mince pies gone?
This month I'm super excited about Peach Momoko's Ultimate X-Men, which is hands down one of the most handsome comics I've seen in a long, long time. I'm also very much looking forward to seeing Black Widow and Hawkeye team up once more in their own new book.
But my big pick this month is perhaps a little unexpected... I first saw Aliens when I was maybe 12 and clearly remember the shock of finding out that company man Carter Burke was - gasp! - a wrong 'un (what can I say, I was naive). Paul Reiser's portrayal of the duplicitous little suit remains weirdly likeable, so I'm delighted to see him get a second shot at life in Aliens: What If?... #1, which takes place in a world where he didn't die on LV-426. Will he change his ways and become a better man after staring death in the face? Probably not, but it'll be fun to find out what he does next, especially with Reiser himself involved in the comic's creation.
Thanks for reading Newsarama in 2023 - we can't wait to see you again in the new year.
