Marvel Comics released its December solicitations for 2019 which features the return of Marvel Cosmic in a big way with Annihilation month!
The cover art and solicits for Annihilation: Scourge has been revealed, which includes fan-favorite Richard Rider Nova and more.
The event kicks off in November with Annihilation: Alpha, with the further good news being that Dan Abnett is back on Cosmic.
My only gripe is I wish we were getting more than one-shots, but I can’t really complain as this looks to be light years better than the previous garbage of the galaxy stuff from Bendis and Loeb.
Marvel Comics is also offering a bunch of reprints for its “Annihilation True Believers Month!” as well as an 80-page Marvel Tales: Annihilation #1 anthology reprinting some classic Cosmic of old that includes a cool new cover featuring Quasar, Darkhawk and Moondragon.
Nova is also featured on the covers for Incoming #1, Guardians of the Galaxy #12, and Marvel is also releasing a cool Annihilation graphic comic box.
The original Annihilation Omnibus is also getting re-released in December though it’s not a part of the official December solicits as it was supposed to come out in September.
As I previously said, I will also be relaunching the Cosmic Book News forums soon as well.

Cover by INHYUK LEE • VIRGIN VARIANT COVER BY INHYUK LEE
Three of the major players in Marvel’s next cosmic epic star in classic adventures, as we celebrate the 80th anniversary of the House of Ideas with the era-spanning MARVEL TALES! This anthology series shines a spotlight on fan-favorite characters, features timeless stories and highlights some of our most impressive talent from the past eight decades. First, former villain and future Guardian of the Galaxy Heather Douglas first takes on the name of Moondragon — and is rudely interrupted by the Man Without Fear in DAREDEVIL (1964) #105! Then Quasar, newest head of security at Project PEGASUS, is the victim of mistaken identity when the Thing comes a-calling — and a-clobberin’ — in the John Byrne-illustrated MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE (1974) #53! And in DARKHAWK (1991) #6, the fledgling hero with a space-faring destiny joins Daredevil and Captain America in battle with the U-Foes!
