Just ahead of New York Comic Con, Marvel Comics unveiled its new publishing line, the MARVEL PREMIER COLLECTION. This line showcases Marvel’s most renowned storylines and creators from its vast comic book history. Set to launch in 2025, the MARVEL PREMIER COLLECTION will kick off with titles featuring Daredevil, Black Panther, Captain America, and the Fantastic Four.
The MARVEL PREMIER COLLECTION is designed for anyone looking for the perfect entry point into the Marvel Universe or for the most beloved tales surrounding Marvel’s iconic characters. Curated to celebrate the pioneering narratives and creative talents from the House of Ideas, this collection combines Marvel’s legendary stories into a stylish, high-quality, and easily readable format. This makes Marvel’s tales more accessible than ever—perfect for fans of the comics, films, television, games, and more, whether they are long-time enthusiasts or new to the franchise.
“We’ve all heard the age-old questions: ‘Where do I start? What is that one run you just cannot miss? What should I read before or after the next big movie or television show to have the best experience?’ The Marvel Premier Collection program is our answer to each of those questions,” said Dan Buckley, President of Marvel Comics and Franchise. “Comics are at the heart of everything we do at Marvel, so this collection will be our go-to publishing line for any and all fans looking for a way into — or further into — the Marvel Universe. These titles will not be the only place to start of course, but they will be one of the best.”
Kicking off with DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN in February, the Marvel Premier Collection will present one of Daredevil’s most iconic and compelling narratives. Celebrated by The Washington Post as “one of the greatest Daredevil stories ever told,” this tale explores the essence of Matt Murdock, making it an ideal introduction to his character and his universe. Additionally, the collection will include an exclusive new foreword by Frank Miller and an afterword by Charlie Cox.
Releasing simultaneously, BLACK PANTHER: A NATION UNDER OUR FEET will collect the saga of National Book Award winner and New York Times bestselling author Ta-Nehisi Coates’ character-and-world-defining story in one single paperback for the first time. Offering a profound look at Wakanda and Afrofuturism, the story is one of the must-reads for any Marvel fan. More details about this title will be announced at a later date.
The Marvel Premier Collection will begin with four titles next year, including:
• Daredevil: Born Again, collecting the definitive Daredevil run as the perfect companion to story to read ahead of the new upcoming Daredevil show! Written by Frank Miller and drawn by David Mazzucchelli.
• Black Panther: A Nation Under Our Feet, collecting the full saga in one trade paperback for the first time! Written by Ta-Nehisi Coates and drawn by Brian Stelfreeze and Chris Sprouse.
