In this news:
Marvel Comics has just released its full May 2025 solicitations, and the publisher is planning some big releases as the summer heats up.
First up, and perhaps most controversially, Marvel is bringing back the original Gwen Stacy, who has been dead since 1973, in a new Gwenpool series that turns her into a new incarnation of the fourth wall breaking character.
Then there's The Vision and the Scarlet Witch #1, which brings the star-crossed lovers back together just in time for the 50th anniversary of their wedding all the way back in 1975's Giant-Size Avengers #3.
And speaking of anniversaries, Marvel is celebrating 50 years since 1975's Giant-Size X-Men #1 with an all new Giant-Size X-Men #1 that sends Ms. Marvel Kamala Khan on a mission through time that takes her to many of the most important moments in Marvel mutant history.
But that's just scratching the surface of another packed month of releases. Read on for a closer look at some of the biggest highlights from Marvel's March 2025 solicitations followed by all the comics and trades. If you still want more, you can also check out all of Marvel and DC's recent listings here on our solicitations tab.
