Yup, more Marvel promos for the Siege series. This one from Siege: The Cabal, which arrives December 2, 2009.

The latest teaser from Marvel to tease the upcoming Siege story arc. Siege: The Cabal arrives December 2, 2009, while Siege #1 arrives a month later on January 6, 2010.
Marvel has announced that the intergalactic S.W.O.R.D. organization is getting its own series written by Kieron Gillen, with art by Steven Sanders and Jamie McKelvie.
Former Avengers-liason Henry Gyrich joins the enigmatic Agent Brand as top dog in space—but why does he think that ridding Earth of all aliens will save it? What will his plan do to the very fabric of the Marvel Universe? And just what does the arrival of Beast mean for S.W.O.R.D.?
The first issue to this new series will be $3.99, when it hits store shelves on November 18, 2009.

We have a huge number of fans that like reading more than titles from the big two. Some actually dive deep into the indie publishers like Blacklist Studios and their Robot 13 series. Major Spoilers fan, Michele slipped us word that the cover to Robot 13 #2 has appeared, even though the issue isn’t scheduled for a few more weeks.

Marvel sent over the new logo that will be adorning the cover of the Fantastic Four covers beginning with #570. In the words of Rodrigo, “I like it”. It works for a four member team, but let’s hope they don’t try to do the same thing with The Avengers.

Boom! has been on a roll lately with some really great titles, so when I saw that company founder Andrew Cosby and Hexed writer Michael Alan Nelson are teaming for a Samurai revenge tale, color me excited.
DC Comics has guaranteed that Final Crisis: Aftermath will feature one shocking moment in every issues.
Here’s the image that the company released on The Source website.

(yes, you can click for larger image...because we know you want to see more hairy naked fat guy ass)
Let’s see
- Fat guy in spandex
- Fat hairy naked ass
- Plastic woman
Nothing too shocking there, sounds like the stuff you see at a comic book convention. Let’s hope the rest of the issue has something truly shocking – like a cover price lower than $4.99.
The twenty-five cent Buck Rogers #0 edition arrives in stores on May 2, 2009, prompting the company to start the publicity early by sending us the cover to the issue.
In addition, take the jump to see the covers to the first issue by Alex Ross and John Cassaday.

Seeing as how I’m just a few days behind on this post, I’m sure most of the blogosphere and the Intar-webs are already lit up talking about the cover to Dynamite Entertainment’s Herogasm mini-series. The series spins out of Garth Ennis’ The Boys series, that takes a rather in your face approach to the superhero genre. Fans of The Boys will be happy to note that Garth is writing this mini, with John McCrea providing the art.
“Garth has a few special surprises for The Boys planned for the back-half of his story and this mini is the first,” explained Dynamite Associate Editor Joe Rybandt. “While Darick works on the main series, we’re especially pleased that we were able to reunite Garth and John McCrea for this mini which will shock even the most hardcore Boys fan. Guaranteed.”

The Stand: Captain Trips is over, and it’s time for the survivors begin to adapt to the changes in the world. Marvel is ready to kick off the second chapter of the series with The Stand: American Nightmares #1, that arrives March 11, 2009.
The superstar creative team of Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, Mike Perkins and Laura Martin, who brought you one of the most critically acclaimed series of last year, The Stand: Captain Trips, reunites to deliver a shocking tale of despair and destruction unlike any other before! The few, brave survivors must adapt to a reality they never thought possible. This new chapter of the beloved Stephen King novel begins with a cover by Mike Perkins, a stylish variant cover by the red-hot Lee Bermejo, a Lincoln Tunnel variant by superstar David Finch, and a can’t-miss sketch variant cover by Perkins!
The Stand: American Nightmares #1 has a cover price of $3.99.

Marvel has announced its newest series, Fantastic Force will debut in April 2009.
In my world, it grew out of fan response.But in the world of [Fantastic Four writer] Mark Millar, he probably knew this was going to spin out all along. Millar is a conniving, wee bastard and he has his ways about these things. He’s leprechaun tricky. But the reaction to the characters in Fantastic Four was very strong, and the writer, Joe Ahearne, is hitting it out of the park.
In his latest MyCup o’ Joe, Marvel Comics Editor in Chief Joe Quesada, explains the series and even offers up the script for the first few pages.

Marvel has announced artist Carlos Pacheco is coming back to the company, and his first bit of work is a “parent” variant cover to the upcoming Secret Warriors #1.
Pacheco’s cover features the chill-inducing lineup of Mr. Hyde, the Phantom Rider and Griffin. The two super villains and one ghostly “hero” represent the parental pedigree of Secret Warriors Quake, Hellfire and Yo-Yo, and the cult status of the characters proved the perfect assignment to bring Pacheco back to the Marvel U.
This is the first work for Marvel by Pacheco in five years. Secret Warriors #1 arrives February 4, 2009.

io9 has an early look at one of Andy Kubert’s pages from the upcoming Neil Gaiman What Ever Happened to the Caped Crusader.
Say, is that Catwoman driving the catmobile?
