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

Variant Cover to Upcoming Spider-Men Limited Series

I love a team-up comic story, but even more than a team-up I love a cross dimensional team-up. Back in the day when the Justice Society of America would come over from Earth-2 to help out the Justice League on Earth-1 I would eat those stories up. With a big wooden spoon, ravenously. I loved the idea of alternate versions of heroes. This concept was first introduced to me in an issue of the Brave and the Bold, where Earth-1 Batman teams up with the adult Robin from Earth-2. I must've read that book over and over a thousand times. I knew the cover of that book so well it took me barely a second to recognize it in a Google Image search.



In June in a limited series, Miles Morales the Spider-Man in Marvel's Ultimate universe will team up with the original Spider-Man, Peter Parker in the main Marvel Universe. Here are both of the covers for the first issue of the series coming this summer.
