The X-Men’s secret weapon (and often comic relief for fans) gets the spotlight in All-New Doop #1. Co-creators Peter Milligan (writer) and Mike Allred (artist) reunite for this insider look of what else happened during X-Men: Battle of the Atom. Allred creates the cover while David La Fuente provides interior art.
At New York Comic Con Marvel revealed a brand new Silver Surfer series by Dan Slot (Superior Spider-Man) and Mike Allred (FF, X-Statix).
“This is exciting – the first comic book I ever read was the Galactus trilogy. This was the first comic hero I ever met. I’ve been dying to do this.” writer Dan Slott said at the panel. Continue reading SILVER SURFER by Slott and Allred!
I LOVE this character. She’s my favorite Marvel redhead (after Jean Grey!) (Sorry MJ!)
The new FF series by Matt Fraction and Mike Allred is one of the most unusual and fun series you can enjoy. Medusa, Ant-Man, She-Hulk and Miss Thing were only supposed to be the substitute Four for four minutes but these “replacements” Continue reading Medusa Mystery of FF
A new Batman digital comic book based on the pop classic series starring Adam West and Burt Ward! Jeff Parker, Jonathan Case and Mike Allred answered the Bat-Signal and will bring the POW SMASH BAM of the 60’s series onto digital screens!

It’s all part of a massive merchandise movement from Warner Bros. Consumer Products. DC Comics revealed the (WBCP) officially launched the Batman Classic Television Series licensing program, inspired by the 1960’s Batman television show. Junk Food Clothing unveiled its capsule collection which includes a range of men’s and women’s t-shirts featuring live-action imagery and inspired graphics from the show. The exclusive apparel collection is available at Meltdown Comics or www.junkfoodclothing.com.
It’s a new beginning for the Future Foundation in this week’s FF#1 by Matt Fraction and Mike Allred.
Here’s what you need to know: Reed Richards created the Future Foundation to help shape the world’s most brilliant young minds (including mutants, aliens and clones) into the leaders of a brighter future. Reed is taking his family on a vacation into uncharted time and space. (The real reason behind the journey is far more heartbreaking.)
FF #1 is a recruitment drive for new heroes to be the world’s new Fantastic Four while Marvel’s First Family ventures to unknown worlds. Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben recruit their replacements in clever scenes that offer great interactions and logical reasons why these new four have been chosen. Between those scenes Fraction has the extended family of FF kids explain the Foundation to their new leader.
FF #1 courtey Marvel
The human and hilarious storytelling tell you everything you need and gives you compelling reasons why should join the FF. Mike and Laura Allred’s pop art styles really convey the wonder, hope and fun in every panel. Ant-Man, Medusa, She-Hulk and the future Ms.Thing may be replacements but I think they’ll win a prime space in the hearts of comic book fans soon!
Matt Fraction is taking the Fantastic Four on a family vacation through time and space with artist Mark Bagley. While Marvel’s First Family is away the Earth will be protected by the new FF by Fraction with artist Mike Allred. FF #1 is out this week. The Madman creator tells Marvel.com why he joined the FF.
“When I was approached with a project starring one of my all-time favorite, and vastly under-rated, characters, Ant-Man, I leapt out of my shoes. Literally. Those shoes are ruined now. Ant-Man has been there from the beginning. One of the very first Marvel heroes, folks; I think the first or second behind the Fantastic Four. Most people don’t know that.
Then add claiming the Baxter Building with my fave Marvel lady, Medusa, big and sexy She-Hulk, and one of the cleverest creations in recent memory, Miss Thing—now I’m almost out of my skin. Fortunately that’s just a figure of speech. I’m still tucked nicely away into my skin.
Seriously, I’m going nuts with excitement. I’m living the dream I dreamt when I was a kid, laying on the living room floor making comics with my big brother Lee.”

Reed and Scott are bonded by their roles as fathers, scientists and connection to Doctor Doom. If you read Fantastic Four #1 you know the real reason for the trip and Reed’s big secret. Maybe Scott can help Reed solve the mystery that could mean the end of Marvel’s First Family?
Warning: Spoilers Ahead!

This Ant-Man was destroyed by the Scarlet Witch in Avengers Disassembled then brought back to life to see his daughter killed in Avengers: The Children’s Crusade. Fraction previously teased how Lang will carry out a plan of revenge against Doctor Doom for Cassie’s demise.

Medusa shares a bond with Susan Storm Richards. Both women are devoted wives to husbands with tremendous responsibilities and are mothers (technically Medusa isn’t a mom but as Queen of the Inhumans she must offer tough love and compassion to her extended family.) After Jean Grey I think Medusa is my favorite Marvel redhead (sorry MJ.)
She-Hulk and She-Thing are the final two of the new FF!
