The Marvel Comics May 2021 solicitations are here, listing all of the upcoming Marvel 2021 comic books, collections, covers, and more.
'Heroes Reborn' is the big new launch of May, Doctor Doom has found someone to marry him, Boba Fett is coming to Marvel Comics, Shang-Chi gets a new ongoing series, the X-Men go corporate, and Marvel introduces the first Hulk ever (sidestepping Bruce Banner by about 10,000 years), plus much more is coming in May,
Marvel is putting a DC Comics-ish spin on the original 1996 Heroes Reborn. But it's the '96 event in name only. The 2021 version is more like 'Heroes Unborn' - i.e. in this alternate reality the Avengers never formed and were more or less replaced by the Squadron Supreme.
The Squadron, who are essentially analogs of DC's Justice League, bring with them a bunch of other elements that should remind readers of DC characters and concepts.
Writer Dan Slott apparently has huge plans to celebrate Fantastic Four's 60th anniversary, including romantic complications for Johnny Storm and a wedding ... but not for the Human Torch - for FF arch-nemesis Doctor Doom.
The identity of the 'lucky' bride hasn't been unveiled yet (unveiled ... get it?) but you can be sure Slott probably has someone that is going to generate some buzz in mind.
Boba Fett made his big return in Disney Plus's The Mandalorian last year, and now he comes to Marvel Comics in a crossover storyline that tells the untold tale of what happened when Fett tried to take Han Solo's carbonite-frozen body to Jabba the Hutt.
What, you think his journey was uneventful?
And in advance of what all MCU fans hope is the July release of his big-screen debut, Shang-Chi gets a new ongoing series pitting him against most of the heroes of the Marvel Universe.
No, Shang-Chi hasn't made a heel turn. It just might look like he has...
Of course, there's plenty more happening out of the Marvel May 2021 Solicitations! So be sure to check out all of the upcoming Marvel May 2021 comic books and collections below, and let us know what you're planning to read and collect in all the usual places like on Facebook and Twitter.
As always, look for multiple covers in some of the galleries and you can also check out Marvel's February 2021, March 2021, and April 2021 solicitations here.

A WORLD WITHOUT AVENGERS!
Welcome to a world where Tony Stark never built an Iron Man armor. Where Thor is a hard-drinking atheist who despises hammers. Where Wakanda is dismissed as a myth. And where Captain America was never found in the ice because there were no Avengers to find him. Instead this world has always been protected by Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, the Squadron Supreme of America. And now the Squadron faces an attack from some of their fiercest enemies, like Dr. Juggernaut, the Black Skull, the Silver Witch and Thanos with his Infinity Rings. But why is the Daywalker Blade the one man alive who seems to remember that the entire world has somehow been…reborn?
