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!

August 15th the second issue of Bloodshot will be on the stands. Valiant has been hitting home run after home run with each revival of their original characters. The selection of solidly writers and artists makes each of their titles a well crafted quality book. I'm praying this is the status quo, because its almost too good to be true. Honestly this is how I'd run a reboot of my character or comic universe if I had the resources. Check out these pages from the upcoming issue of Bloodshot by writer Duane Swierczynski and amazing art by Manuel Garcia & Arturo Lozzi.

While I enjoyed some of Valiant titles back in the day. I didn't enjoy them this much. Valiant's return has been quite a happy surprise. I've been reading these digitally, but I think I'll be hunting down some of the print copies at this summer's conventions.
