Captain America and Iron Man team up for a new series, Daredevils and galactic crime lords reign and more in this upcoming week’s Marvel releases.

The Avengers’ most prominent heroes kick off a new title together and massive events reign in the upcoming week’s releases from Marvel Comics.

They have been on the big screen for a consecutive decade and fought both alongside and against one another, but now Steve Rogers and Tony Stark are teaming up for a shared, limited series for the first time, Captain America/Iron Man #1, helmed by writer Derek Landy and artist Angel Unzueta. In the last year, the two heroes have been featured in the ongoing Avengers series and their own respective books like Iron Man. While the ongoing Captain America series has not relaunched since writer Ta-Nehisi Coates ended his tenure on the title, Steve Rogers previous Captain Americas–Sam Wilson, Bucky Barnes and John Walker–for the recent limited series, The United States of Captain America, which ended in October.

The upcoming week will also debut two comic events and a special, giant-sized issue. For Marvel, after building within the ongoing Daredevil series for some time, writer Chip Zdarsky and artist Marco Checchetto pit New York’s superheroes against Wilson Fisk AKA the Kingpin in Devil’s Reign. From the world of Star Wars, writer Charles Soule and artist Steven Cummings launch an event of their own with Crimson Reign, involving the criminal organization once helmed by the Sith lord Darth Maul and now controlled by Han Solo’s former love, Qi’ra. Finally, following the now-concluded Black Cat series and eight Marvel annual issues over the summer, Giant-Size Black Cat: Infinity Score #1 will show readers what happens when Felicia Hardy unites all the Infinity Stone bearers, as well as what effect it may have on the Marvel Universe.
