Follow along as I see what is coming out in January 2026 from Marvel!

https://leagueofcomicgeeks.com/solicitations/14568/marvel-comics-january-2025

Iron Man 1, so lucky they are getting Carmen Carnero for this series.

Ultimate X-Men 23 going strong until The End.

Ultimate Endgame 2, no reference to Wolverine or any X-Men. Nine variant covers, so maybe one of those will have Sprite or Magik on it?

. . .

We have Ultimate Magik on the main cover of Ultimate Wolverine 13! I guess knowing this entire universe is ending, that I’ll stick to the end of it, especially if Magik is still there. No reference to The Opposition makes me worry that Sprite doesn’t make it.

. . .

X-Men of Apocalypse 3, I do appreciate they list as many characters as they do. They’re going to the Savage Land, so of course, they find Rogue there. Zabu, Magneto, Ka-Zar, and Sauron too.

Psylocke : Ninja 1, I can’t believe they are telling a retro series set during the time Betsy Braddock was in Kwannon’s body?! Just tell a present day story with Kwannon fighting ninjas! oh, but we really want Psylocke versus Elektra, and she’s Daredevil now, so that’s complicated. So, make it fun to read complicated then! This is a pass for me.

Sai : Dimensional Rivals 1, with Peach Momoko writing Sai going through the multiverse I’ll be interested to know who she meets along her journey. Different artists are attached for the different stories, so this should be fun.

Dungeons of Doom 1, is a pass for me until we know which characters are involved.

. . .

Luna Snow World Tour 1, has me with Magik being on the cover. I wonder if Karma will be in this?

. . .

X-Men V7 23, confession time – I wasn’t buying every issue of this, which is dumb, as I’m the host of a podcast that 1/3 of which is Magik focus, so I should be getting her team title. So, I’m definitely getting every issue of this going forward. I also love that Vecchio is tackling X-Men with his cover variants, so I’ll definitely be getting the Magik one. I’m sure she’ll be one of the first three to come out.
I imagine it has to be Cyclops who is left in the Age of Revelation title, as no one would care that Beast is stuck in the future. Plus, Cyclops has his ongoing starting soon.

. . .

X-Men V7 24, of course, as soon as I commit to this plan, I completely forgot that X-Men ships twice a month. I’m not that surprise that Psylocke got the second Vecchio cover. Magik has to be third, right? Or last. It is a very large team, so he’s going to be doing a lot of these covers.

. . .

Uncanny X-Men V6 22, Mutina is back!

Wolverine V8 14, guest starring Silver Sable! I’ve always liked her, so this should be great.

Inglorious X-Force 1, is a hard pass for me, but I do love how 90s this is. Cable, Meltdown, Archangel, and Hellverine – what a team!

Rogue 1, I do like Rogue getting her own ongoing, she deserves it.

Logan : Black, White & Blood 1, is a pass for me.

. . .

Sorcerer Supreme 2, this is an ongoing series?! Six variants so I wonder if we’ll get one with Magik?

. . .

The End 2099 2, I have the first issue preordered, but I am not feeling compelled to get the second one. Though I do appreciate all of the characters being listed – Nova 2099 vs AoA Wolveine, Red Hulk vs Red Hulk 2099, House of M Wanda vs Doctor Strange 2099, and Spider-Man 2099. With me buying two issues of X-Men a month, I’ll have to see what my budget is for these side series.

Hulk : Smash Everything 2, now with dinosaurs! That sounds fun.

Spider-Man & Wolverine 9, versus Arachnix, who is a Spider-theme Wolverine Which does sound fun.

. . .

Marvel Rivals : The Cities of Heaven 1, reminds me that I haven’t played Marvel Rivals in a couple weeks. Magik and Hulk oppose Luna Snow, who is starting 2026 off with two issues. Pretty impressive, and I’m on board. Hopefully Magik is on one of the two variant covers.

. . .

Spider-Boy Team-Up 1! The very best Amalgam issue of the complete run. We get introduced to Phantom Cat, a mix of Phantom Girl and Shadowcat, twice! I would say, just eBay the original, as I was able to get Spider-Boy 1 at cover price, but this one would be hassle free, and probably not cost as much for shipping. I’m tempted to get it for Walker D.

. . .

Avengers V9 34, is also issue 800! I would just switch to the bigger number, if it was up to me. Magik isn’t on the Russell Dauterman cover, so I’ll be passing on this.

Battleworld 5, ending already. First issue was pretty good. Second issue should be out soon, right?

Strange Tales 4, ends the series.

Marvel Zombies : Red Band 5, no one seems to be writing about this series, and fandom hasn’t been late with updating the character list.

. . .

No Superman / Spider-Man reprint? I wonder if that will be part of DC’s Soliciations?

No Magik & Colossus series either. Must be a February book. No scheduled Kitty Pryde appearance either.

. . .

I’m going to be buying :

Ultimate Wolverine 13, regular cover

Luna Snow : World Tour 1, regular cover

X-Men 23, regular cover

X-Men 24, probably a variant, but not the Thor cover (for some reason is an option), maybe the Vecchio Psylocke variant, if Magik isn’t on one of the other five variants. Hopefully Marvel does a decent job of showing us all of the options before DCBS stops the preorders.

Sorcerer Supreme 2, if Magik is on one of these covers

Marvel Rivals : The Cities of Heaven 1, hopefully one of the two variant covers has Magik

So, Five comics, with maybe a six? Might as well get Sorcerer Supreme 2 as six isn’t hurting my budget like 11 comics did.

What are you getting, dear reader?

. . .

I’m just now thinking that Marvel Rivals and World tour might be miniseries, but they don’t have 1 (of 5) in the title.
