August 2020 Marvel Comics solicitations: the X-Men offer ‘more than you ever dreamed to ask for’

The August Marvel Comics solicitations are here and they offer some interesting early looks at what is to come.

Marvel Comics solicitations are back! The publisher’s August 2020 solicitation list is one marker that the comic book industry is slowly returning to normal. Below you’ll find cover art and synopses for every Marvel book scheduled to release in August.

A few of the books have already been announced recently, notably Maestro #1 and Fantastic Four: Antithesis. There are, however, quite a few surprises, not least of which is the news that Empyre will reach its 4th and 5th issues nearing the finale with issue #6. Also of note is Star Wars #5 by Charles Soule and Jesus Saiz which hasn’t been announced for returning till now.

Listen to the latest episode of our weekly comics podcast!

Fans of Jonathan Hickman should note there’s a new Avengers Complete Collection featuring Hickman’s work (hey, look, you can preorder it on Amazon right now), along with a House of X/Powers of X trade paperback. Somewhat related to Hickman is the news that a New Mutants omnibus is on the way in August too!

Check out the full solicitation list complete with cover art below!

In 1990, superstar AMAZING SPIDER-MAN artist Todd McFarlane wanted to stretch his creative muscles as a writer — and the result was a brand-new SPIDER-MAN book that needed no superlative!

But why has Spidey’s classic foe the Lizard begun a brutal killing spree? As the pounding drums spell doom, the torment is only beginning for Spider-Man and Dr. Curt Connors! It’s one of the all-time great Marvel comic books, boldly re-presented in its original form, ads and all! Reprinting SPIDER-MAN (1990) #1.
