Marvel Multiverse Table Top Role-Playing Game - Summer 2023

  A new Marvel TTRPG is heading our way for Summer 2023. I have some really fond memories of the Marvel Superheroes Roleplaying game put out by TSR in the 1980's. It was right along side Dungeons & Dragons as one of my introductory games to ttrpgs. This new game looks to be based purely on a six-sided dice system. The playtest rulebook for the game is available now for anyone who wants to run an early version of the game through its paces before the finalized version comes out next year. I'll admit I'm curious enough make that purchase myself. Here is the official press release from Marvel:  MARVEL LAUNCHING CORE RULEBOOK FOR NEW TABLETOP ROLE-PLAYING GAME IN SUMMER 2023   ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: CORE RULEBOOK’ AVAILABLE JUNE 2023   FOLLOWED BY ‘MARVEL MULTIVERSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: THE CATACLYSM OF KANG’ AVAILABLE JULY 2023     Use the D616 game system to embody your favorite Super Heroes and Super Villains!     New York, NY— August 22, 2022 –  New adventu

September will be a big month for DC Comics the first of ten, of the 52 new titles will be making their debut after all previous issues halt in August.

August 31st will only see two comics being published by DC: The last issue of Flashpoint and Justice League #1. In September the following week the first wave of number one issues will hit the stands. Below are the covers and creative teams for the upcoming new series. Along with some commentary from the peanut gallery.

 
Justice League #1 written by Geoff Johns and Pencilled by Jim Lee
This is the book that is going to kick it off. I like some of the design tweeks on Cyborg & Superman. Its good to see Cyborg as part of the Justice League. It's also hard to not notice the lack of "America" included in the title.


 
WONDER WOMAN #1 Written by Brian Azzarello Art by Cliff Chiang.
Cover to issue #1 by Cliff Chiang.

 
AQUAMAN #1 Written by Geoff Johns. Art by Ivan Reis.
Cover to issue #1 by Ivan Reis and Joe Prado.
Oh Aquaman, they keep trying with you don't they. You're story in Brightest Day was damn interesting, so I still have hope.
 
 
THE FLASH #1 Written by Geoff Johns. Art by Francis Manapul.
Cover to issue #1 by Francis Manapul and Brian Buccellato. 

CAPTAIN ATOM #1 Written by JT Krul. Art by Freddie Williams II.
The cover to issue #1 by Stanley “Artgem” Lau. 

 
 MISTER TERRIFIC #1 Written by Eric Wallace. Art by Roger Robinson.
The cover to issue #1 by J.G. Jones. 
Mr. Terrific has always been a fav of mine in Justice Society comics. He's a strong character and can definitely carry his own book. Good choice.

 
THE SAVAGE HAWKMAN #1 Written by Tony Daniel with art by Philip Tan.
Cover to issue #1 by Philip Tan.  
Wow! Hawkman looks, well he looks savage and angry. I like the helmet and costume changes from what I can see. Another character that I like from JSA and I'm happy he's getting another shot at a series.
 
 GREEN ARROW #1 Written by JT Krul. Art by Dan Jurgens.
Cover to #1 by Brett Booth. 

 
THE FURY OF FIRESTORM #1 Written by Ethan Van Sciver and Gail Simone. Art by Yildiray Cinar.
Cover to issue #1 Ethan Van Sciver. 

 
JUSTICE LEAGUE INTERNATIONAL #1 Written by Dan Jurgens and art by Aaron Lopresti.

Booster Gold, Fire, Ice, Guy Gardner, and Batman? Sign me up. Looks great.
