Marvel Comics will kill Norrin Radd, the Silver Surfer, in an upcoming limited series set to take place this summer. The five-issue event— Death of the Silver Surfer will hit shelves this June, by writer Greg Pak and artist Sumit Kumar.

The timing aligns the comic universe with plans for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which is preparing to introduce Shalla Bal, not Radd as the Silver Surfer, in Fantastic Four: First Steps. Marvel Comics isn't shy when it comes to keeping its releases and the McU's in conversation. The strategic Death of the Silver Surfer echoes the recently debuted One World Under Doom event preceding Robert Downey Jr.'s debut as Doctor Doom.

New York, NY— February 27, 2025 — Announced last week at ComicBook.com, Marvel’s greatest cosmic hero headlines a new epic this June in Death Of The Silver Surfer! Written by Greg Pak and drawn by Sumit Kumar, the five-issue limited series promises a tragic fate for Norrin Radd as a new enemy that even the Power Cosmic can’t overcome rises in might! This new rival will stop at nothing to crush the Sentinel of the Spaceways and his allies, the Fantastic Four. But their earth-shattering battle will come at a cost: what ancient secrets lie in the shadows of Surfer’s past? Secrets known only to…Galactus?!

“In a world of shades of gray, the story of Norrin Radd lets us find a little silver, and I’m so thrilled to have the chance to tell this story with tremendous creators like Editor Tom Groneman, artist Sumit Kumar, and cover artist Dike Ruan.

Before making his debut in the MCU, Silver Surfer will face an untimely death in the comics. In a new five-issue limited series titled Death of the Silver Surfer, Norrin Radd will return to a war-torn Earth with a target on his back. The series, written by Greg Pak and illustrated by Sumit Kumar, promises to be an emotional ride, introducing new characters and bringing back familiar faces, including the Fantastic Four and Galactus.

Pak, who has long admired Silver Surfer, described the character’s depth and relevance: “Norrin Radd is an alien who’s attacked wherever he goes, and yet always chooses to help; a harbinger of doom who serves an abomination, but who always fights for life.” He went on to say that Silver Surfer’s stories have always been about the complexities of real life, showing how the character’s selflessness stands out in a world full of gray areas.

Marvel Comics has delivered dozens of new Spider-Man and Venom adventures throughout the publisher's vast Multiverse, and now, the Spider-Verse and Venomverse will collide in an all-out war for the survival of both. The Spider-Society, which protects the Web of Life and Destiny from external and internal threats, and the Symbiote Hive Mind, connecting every symbiote across the Multiverse together, will soon become each other's greatest threats.

As announced by Marvel, Web of Spider-Verse: New Blood and Web of Venomverse: Fresh Brains – both featuring creative teams stacked with all-star Marvel writers and artists – will be an interconnected crossover event, which is set to feature the debut of even more new variants of Spider-Man and Venom, while also crafting a story with major consequences for both corners of the Marvel Multiverse.

With the growing popularity of both, it was only a matter of time until the Spider-Verse and Venomverse collided; already,...

Spider-Man's Spider-Verse - which now includes Venom - is one of Marvel's most popular concepts. Now, the Spider-Verse and the Venomverse are colliding, and three incredibly cool Spider-Men will be at the center of this battle.

With Venom being nearly as popular as Spider-Man, Venom has gotten his own multiverse known as the Venomverse, which functions the same as the beloved Spider-Verse concept. Now, Marvel has announced the two multiverses will be going to war, and the first new Spider-Men will be shown off in Web of Spider-Verse: New Blood #1, an anthology issue featuring art by character designer Luciano Vecchio, including a spectacular cover by Vecchio.

It's not unusual for comic book universes to incllude multiverse storytelling. It's an extremely easy way to explore new versions of familiar characters and put them in bizarre situations that wouldn't make sense in standard continuity. Spider-Man ended up getting his very own multiverse,...

Warning! Contains spoilers for Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood #1!Every hero has something that drives them to be the character that they are and, for Spider-Man, it's his unbelievable sense of responsibility. No matter what goes wrong, Spider-Man often feels like it's his fault, because he has the power to fix it. But the shadow of the Venom symbiote puts a dark twist on this sense of responsibility.

Venom's tempting offer was shown in the story "Fade to Black" by J. Michael Straczynski, Sumit Kumar and Craig Yeung, appearing in Spider-Man: Black Suit & Blood #1. In this story, a shadow of the Venom symbiote approaches Peter Parker on Halloween night, trying to tempt him into bonding again. The symbiote makes a convincing argument and even plays on the most important thing to Spider-Man; his sense of responsibility.

The Venom symbiote points out that while they were bonded, Spider-Man was free to act on his worst impulses.

Marvel's Armored Avenger will take off for a new set of adventures this October in the pages of Iron Man #1. The run, described by Marvel Comics as "hard-hitting," will be written by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author Spencer Ackerman (Waller vs. Wildstorm) in his Marvel debut.

Ackerman will be joined by rising star artist Julius Ohta (Hellverine).

When the best of his own technology fails him, Tony will build a brand-new armour unlike any seen in his over 60-year history. Dubbed the "Improvised Iron Man,...

In their interconnected miniseries, The One Hand and The Six Fingers, from Image Comics, co-creators Ram V and Dan Watters offer a unique dual narrative, as their main characters each seek answers in a mysterious murder, though for very different reasons. The Six Fingers focal character Johannes Vale, and The One Hand lead Ari Nassar, are in some ways "two sides of the same coin, both driven by the same fatal flaw," while in other ways, the deep divides between the two characters are what drives the story. Both The One Hand and The Six Fingers share a core mystery but approach it from different perspectives, creating a complex narrative dynamic that readers will be thrilled to follow as it unravels.

The One Hand and The Six Fingers, from Image Comics, are presenting readers with a unique narrative effort, not just with how the intertwined miniseries stories are being told,...
