MARVEL

Putting together Marvel’s comics was a challenge this month. Nearly all of the comics below were listed in Marvel’s Preview catalog. The mainstay source for making these lists had the message “No information available. Look for a new Previews” or something to that effect. So I turned to Comicsbeat for help. A few comics included at my source are probably comics scheduled for February. In those instances a note was made. You should probably double check with your comics shop when preordering to be on the safe side.
