Get ready, True Believers! Marvel Comics is bringing the heat this Pride Month with Marvel United: A Pride Special #1, an action-packed one-shot that’s bursting with heroic heart, thrilling showdowns, and a powerful message of love and unity.

For the fifth year in a row, Marvel is rolling out the rainbow carpet, spotlighting LGBTQIA+ creators and characters in a spectacular anthology that assembles legendary heroes — including some of your Avengers and X-Men faves — against the forces of hate and fear. And if that’s not enough to fill your Marvel-ous Pride cup, a brand-new series of Pride Month Variant Covers arriving in June will be revealed soon!

The Stories That Will Have You Cheering

This year’s lineup of stories promises a mix of nostalgia, romance, and high-stakes heroics: Aaron Fischer, the Captain America of the Railways, stands his ground against the loathsome Hate-Monger in a gripping tale by Al Ewing and Kei Zama.

Captain America teams up with his longtime friend Arnie Roth to battle Hydra in World War II — a thrilling adventure that could rewrite history! Written by Anthony Oliveira with art by Pablo Collar, this story ties into the Avengers Academy: Assemble #1 collection, hitting shelves just in time for Pride Month.

Last year, we saw Mystique and Destiny tie the knot. Now, dive into a new chapter of their timeless love story — this time featuring their son, Nightcrawler! Wyatt Kennedy and Marvel newcomer Bayleigh Underwood bring this emotional tale to life.

The ever-mischievous Black Cat teams up with the celestial Sera in a heist-turned-nightmare when they face off against the fearsome demon D’Spayre! This electrifying debut from Zoe Tunnell and Federica Mancin promises chaos, thrills, and unexpected alliances.

And that’s just the beginning! The special will also feature insightful essays and behind-the-scenes interviews, adding depth to this celebration of LGBTQIA+ voices in comics.

A Visual Feast

The artwork? Simply stunning. Marvel’s top-tier talents, including Lucas Werneck, Jan Bazaldua, Ernanda Souza, Luciano Vecchio, and Rickie Yagawa, have created breathtaking covers that are bound to be collector’s items.
