In a bitter divorce settlement from her billionaire husband Rupert Mannion, Rebecca Welton (Hannah Waddingham) becomes the new owner of British football club AFC Richmond. She’s assisted by her Director of Football Operations, Higgins (Jeremy Swift), who formerly worked for her husband. Her first order of business is to fire the team’s current manager and replace him with an idealistic all-American football coach Theodore “Ted” Lasso (Jason Sudeikis). Ted and his friend, assistant Coach Beard (Brendan Hunt) cross the pond to take up the management of the team’s “long, albeit modest” history. Ted gets to know the team – including Team Captain Roy Kent (Brett Goldstein), top scorer Jamie Tartt (Phil Dunster) and more – but finds his first friend in the locker room assistant Nathan (Nick Mohammed). Half a world away from his wife and child, Ted could use a friend. But he presses on, nevertheless. Richmond is about to change the way they’re doing things — and from now on, that is the Lasso way.

The United Captains Arrive in Captain America #6

New York, NY— August 19, 2025 — Last month saw the launch of an all-new run of CAPTAIN AMERICA by Eisner-nominated writer Chip Zdarsky and superstar artist Valerio Schiti. One of the most acclaimed Marvel debut issues of the year, the new series kicks off with a five-part saga set shortly after Steve Rogers emerged from his icy slumber, revealing the star-spangled hero’s first confrontation with Doctor Doom. The second arc will start in CAPTAIN AMERICA #6, on sale in December, and will take place in the present day as Captain America deals with the direct aftermath of Doom’s fall, following One World Under Doom. In addition to Schiti, the arc will be drawn by guest artists Frank Alpizar and Delio Diaz, a duo making their Marvel Comics debut later this month in Doomed 2099, who kick things off in issue #6. 

The new storyline will introduce four new characters, each representing one of the five permanent member countries of the United Nations Security Council: CAPTAIN KINGDOM, representing the United Kingdom; CAPTAIN FRANCE, representing France; RED WIDOW, representing Russia; and THE STAR, representing China. Dubbed the “United Captains,” they’ll assemble with Captain America to keep Latveria from falling into chaos, but upon infiltrating the unstable—and highly advanced—country, their true motives will be revealed. Bringing Captain America’s bold new era to present day in full force, the storyline positions him as a pivotal player in determining the current state of the Marvel Universe and is essential reading for major events coming next year.

A WORLD WITHOUT DOOM!

The aftermath of One World Under Doom has brought Latveria to the brink of civil war. Captain America deploys to protect civilians and investigate rumors of a weapons stockpile—but when the United Nations Security Council adds their own loyal Super-Soldiers to the mix, it becomes clear that everyone wants a piece of Latveria—no matter the cost. With warring factions tearing the country apart and a team of Captains pursuing their own agendas, can Captain America hope to bring peace to Latveria? And is that even what his handlers want?

“I love the idea of “official” super heroes, ones who work within the system,” Zdarsky told ComicBook.com in an exclusive interview. “It felt like there would be some sort of United Nations representatives from the Security Council member countries to deal with situations like Latveria. So, the United Captains came from that idea, a team that isn’t a team, that may have their own agendas.”

Schiti’s work on the X-Men titles and G.O.D.S. has made him one of Marvel’s premier character designers. Now, he brings his skills to CAPTAIN AMERICA, modernizing Cap’s suit and creating fantastic, instantly iconic costumes for the four new United Captains, each of which will be spotlighted on design variant covers for CAPTAIN AMERICA #6-9.

“One of the things I like most about my job is designing new characters,” Schiti said. “It has always been a great hobby of mine, even before becoming a professional! I tried to incorporate some traditional symbols from the countries of origin of the new Captains into their uniforms, which are also practical and suitable for combat.”

White Tiger Reborn Celebrates Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month

New York, NY— July 21, 2025 — Marvel Comics will celebrate Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month this year by spotlighting Marvel Comics’ first Latin Super Hero in WHITE TIGER REBORN #1, a Marvel’s Voices Comunidades special. The one-shot will feature two gripping tales: a story by superstar writer Daniel José Older and rising star artist Bruno Abdias and a story by Bram Stoker award winner Cynthia Pelayo and acclaimed artist Moises Hidalgo, marking the exciting Marvel Comics debut of both Abdias and Pelayo.

The special will uncover never-before-seen moments in the original White Tiger Hector Ayala’s history and propel current White Tiger, Ava Ayala, into a new era as she reforges her link to the Tiger God and makes the mantle her own. In addition, October’s issues of Amazing Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, and Incredible Hulk will have WHITE TIGER TEAM-UP VARIANT COVERS by iconic artist J. Gonzo that each showcase one of the three bearers of the White Tiger mantle alongside the series’ titular star.

THE RETURN OF THE WHITE TIGER!

Ava Ayala is the current wielder of the powers of the White Tiger, bearing the amulet of power that imbue its host with a connection to mystical power and martial arts prowess. As Ava returns to her old stomping grounds to protect the innocent, she becomes embroiled in a mystery that forces her to confront her family’s murder and history linking them to the White Tiger mantle as Ava is brought face-to-face with – Hector Ayala, her dead brother and the original White Tiger?!

“While it’s always a deep honor to carry on the legacy that Bill Mantlo and George Pérez began so many years ago, this story feels particularly special, as it marks a major turning point in the decades-long saga of the White Tiger,” Older shared. 

“As a Puerto Rican author, it is an honor to make my Marvel Comics debut with White Tiger,” Pelayo said. “I’m grateful to be a part of the experience of new audiences, and old, learning about the legacy of the first Latin American, and Puerto Rican, superhero in the history of American comic books.”

The Spirits of Violence Feature all the Ghost Riders

This October, the darkest corner of the Marvel Universe reignites in SPIRITS OF VIOLENCE, a five-issue limited series written by Sabir Pirzada, following up on his acclaimed Spirits of Vengeance series, and drawn by Paul Davidson, known for his recent stellar work on Namor and X-Force.

Tying together the entire Ghost Rider legacy, the explosive saga unites various heroes who have held the mantle including Johnny Blaze, Danny Ketch, Kushala, Hellverine, newcomer Fantasma, Robbie Reyes in his long-awaited return, and more, after they and those closest to them are targeted by a dangerous entity known as the SPIRIT OF VIOLENCE!

GHOST RIDERS UNITE!

When a strange group of new villains set their sinister plan in motion, Ghost Riders past, present and future must combine forces to save the world. But just who is the Spirit of Violence, and what horrors do they bring from Johnny Blaze’s and Danny Ketch’s pasts? Forget everything you thought you knew about Ghost Rider! The most climactic ride in history starts here!

On continuing his saga and the reveal of the Spirit of Violence’s identity, Pirzada shared, “Those who read our previous series, Spirits of Vengeance, already know that the host for the Spirit of Violence is none other than Barbara Ketch. That’s right! Danny’s sister has returned from the dead, and she’s already killed Linda Littletrees. That was always intended to be the kickoff to what I’m referring to as the ‘Violent Era’ of Ghost Rider, where all bets are off. The end of issue 2 in particular will prove that we are not playing it safe.”

Age of Revelation is Latest Marvel Game Changer

New York, NY— July 9, 2025 — Every so often, a pivotal moment occurs that radically transforms the Marvel Universe, diverting its destiny towards strange timelines and dark futures. This October, in honor of the 30th anniversary of one of the greatest of those aforementioned sagas, Age of Apocalypse, behold the AGE OF REVELATION, a startling new X-Men event that sees the world reborn in the image of the heir to Apocalypse: Doug Ramsey, A.K.A. Revelation.

This week, select retailers will receive a Shadow Drop Variant of AGE OF REVELATION #0, a prelude one-shot by X-Men writer Jed MacKay and superstar artist Humberto Ramos that reveals how this new status quo came to be. Starting today, additional copies of this surprise issue with a wraparound cover by Ryan Stegman are now available to order. Retailers should order immediately to receive their copies as soon as possible.

On October 1, AGE OF REVELATION OVERTURE #1 by MacKay and Stegman serves as a foundational alpha issue for this new era, which overtakes the current X-Men line for the foreseeable future with series evolutions like Amazing X-Men, Unbreakable X-Men, and Expatriate X-Men, and also impacts the wider Marvel Universe with launches such as Radioactive Spider-Man, X-Vengers, and Iron and Frost. The full scope of AGE OF REVELATION titles is unveiled today, with official series announcements to come next week.

AGE OF REVELATION takes current X-Men storytelling 10 years into the future. After being welcomed onto Cyclops’ X-Men with open arms, Revelation set out on the impossible task that Apocalypse entrusted him with: creating a world where only the fittest survived. With his linguistic mutant power amplified to an astonishing new level, Doug commands Earth itself with his voice, reshaping it as a utopian haven for mutantkind. It’s a mutant homeland built on an insidious lie, spreading across the planet and wiping out humanity until it becomes a mutant homeworld!

THE HEIR RISES – THE RESISTANCE IGNITES!

X YEARS FROM TODAY the Revelation Territories stretch from the Atlantic to the Mississippi – a mutant utopia ruled by the heir of Apocalypse. But beneath the surface, rebellion brews. As a ragtag X-Men team strikes from the shadows, Revelation faces threats from within. It all begins here – the dawn of the AGE OF REVELATION!

On being the architect behind the latest X-Men milestone, MacKay said, “Enter… the Age of Revelation! I’m extremely excited to be at the center of this event– we’re traveling to the alien future of the Age of Revelation, where the stories unfolding in the Revelation Territories and beyond will decide whether this is the dawn of a new world or the end of one. We’ve been exploring a whole world, and it’s been really exciting to see other creators make corners of it their own!”
