Kingpin Unleashes Hell On The Marvel Universe In Devil's Reign

Kingpin Unleashes Hell On The Marvel Universe In Devil's Reign


Jay Cochran - September 07, 2021
After years of buildup in the pages of their Eisner-nominated run on Daredevil, writer Chip Zdarsky and artist Marco Checchetto will bring their superb talents for high-stakes storytelling to the greater Marvel Universe in DEVIL’S REIGN! Launching in December, DEVIL’S REIGN will be a classic-style Marvel Comics crossover event, tying into some of your favorite ongoing titles and ushering in exciting new series. The far-reaching saga will center around Kingpin as he broadens his lofty goals in a scheme that will unleash dark secrets about some of Marvel’s greatest heroes. Having kept these shocking truths to himself for ages, Kingpin is ready to ruthlessly expose his foes to gain more power than ever before and he has more than enough dirt on the Marvel Universe to come out on top!

Wilson Fisk went from Kingpin to mayor of the biggest city in America and is going to bring his full criminal and political power to bear on the super heroes who call NYC home. The man who once destroyed Daredevil has set his sights on The Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and more. And since it’s Fisk, once he takes them all down, you know he’s going to sign it. CROSSBONES! TASKMASTER! TYPHOID MARY! SHOCKER! WHIPLASH! RHINO! KRAVEN! Fisk has an army of super villains at his command – and this is just his opening salvo. For years, Fisk has waited for his time to strike, and YOU WON’T BELIEVE the aces he’s got up his sleeves!

“Our Daredevil plan just kept getting bigger and bigger, to the point where it would clearly affect the Marvel Universe in huge ways,” Zdarsky explained. “Thankfully, Marvel recognized this as well and gave Marco and I the opportunity to tell the story on a massive stage with DEVIL’S REIGN! This is a proper Marvel event springing from the pages of Daredevil and I think all Marvel readers will love what’s coming!"

"Devil's Reign. Finally here we are. I am really excited and happy to work on this Marvel event. I am also proud of it since it comes directly from our Daredevil’s series, that both, Chip and I, have been working on for a long time now,” Checchetto said. “When I read the story of this event I was speechless. As a fan, I can tell you that I am happy to see Daredevil among the protagonists of this event. I have the opportunity to draw so many characters that I love so much, heroes and villains, and I'm trying to give everyone the dignity and respect they deserve. It will be great."

Be there in December when Kingpin declares war in DEVIL’S REIGN #1.

This Spider-Woman suit.. I know there was that controversy over her New Avengers cover being overtly sexualized but even the cover here for SW #18.. her costumes lines bring focus to her anatomy in ways most other super suits dont..

isnt one of her powers, or former powers, pheromone based? Made her enemies attracted to her? I may be confusing her with someone else but dang, between how she is commonly drawn, her eye catching costume and her Spider-Man like poses that when applied to the female form drive the fan boys crazy and the Karens cry foul.. no wonder this suit is so popular

This looks like a fun crossover event. Reminds of the better ones from the 80s/90s that were overall smaller scale but involved many corners of the Marvel Universe.

Ill look for the trade when it comes out

So glad that Jessica Drew is back in her classic Spider-Woman costume. Nothing against the other costumes she's worn over the last couple years, but her original is one of my all-time favorite superhero costume designs, and probably my number 1 favorite for a female character.

Agree, simple and classic. By far her best and most iconic look.

I love these grand royale team up type stories. They get me every time, especially whenthey involve DD. Checchetto is a great artist, second only to Leinil Yu for Dynamic Realism. I'm actually looking forward to this one.

I also missed the boat on Zdarsky's DD despite the great word of mouth. I adore Checchetto on art though, if I knew he was involved earlier, I'd have been right on it. I'll probably pick this up as an event and see where DD goes from here.

I've heard good things about Zdarsky's Daredevil run, but always felt like I would have to do a lot of catch-up, so this might be a good jumping-in point.

...

Gah, I can't believe I've fallen for the "lets make every issue a #1" marketing shtick.

I didn't care much for this Checchetto art....and also getting tired of this notion that all these villains has this much power over the heroes. Maybe I'll give it a gander but likely I'll just pass.
