Introducing Sister Sorrow

Marvel’s greatest antagonists are stepping into the spotlight. Announced at the ComicsPRO event, Bring on the Bad Guys is set to deliver a thrilling saga of villainy. Under the helm of Emmy-winning writer Marc Guggenheim, this high-stakes series resurrects a concept from the 1970s, revamping it with modern storytelling.

The series unfolds as seven explosive one-shots, each showcasing an infamous Marvel villain. Expect Doctor Doom, Green Goblin, and Abomination to take the lead, alongside a brand-new menace—Sister Sorrow. This new antagonist makes her debut in a Mephisto-centered backup story, a move that has already sparked intrigue across the comic book world.

Unveiling the Shadowy World of Supervillains

Kicking off in June, the Doctor Doom one-shot sets the tone for what’s to come. Each installment delivers high-intensity storytelling, brought to life by top-tier artists like Stefano Raffaele. The interconnected stories craft a gripping portrait of Marvel’s most feared adversaries, giving each a moment to carve their own legend.

Guggenheim’s writing delves into what truly drives these villains. Mephisto’s thirst for dominion leads him to seek out the ancient Soul Forge, a relic powered by stolen souls. However, no villain operates in a vacuum. Betrayal, ambition, and calculated destruction fuel their every move. The clash between these power-hungry titans ensures that no one walks away unscathed.

With each villain controlling their own sinister domain, the stage is set for conflict, conquest, and chaos. This is more than just a showcase of destruction—it’s a deep dive into the psyches of Marvel’s most infamous characters.

A New Era of Villainy Unfolds

This series promises to reshape how fans perceive supervillains. These aren’t mere monsters in the dark—they are brilliant, flawed, and dangerously compelling figures. Marvel has long created villains with layers, and Bring on the Bad Guys takes that to the next level.

Editor Mark Paniccia describes the series as an intimate look into the minds of Marvel’s deadliest icons. “Each issue digs into what makes these villains tick, giving readers a front-row seat to their most personal battles,” Paniccia explains.

Visual storytelling plays a crucial role in this saga. Sister Sorrow’s first appearance is captured in a breathtaking variant cover by Leirix, alongside bold, cinematic visuals from some of Marvel’s best artists. Each cover, splash page, and action sequence aims to immortalize these villains in stunning detail.

With every issue, fans will experience the villains in their truest, rawest forms. Whether it’s Doctor Doom’s ruthless intellect or Loki’s cunning tricks, every story offers a fresh take on Marvel’s most dangerous minds.

  • Green Goblin – July
  • Abomination – July

The battle lines are drawn. The most ruthless, ambitious, and terrifying figures in the Marvel Universe are ready to burn, conquer, and manipulate their way into history. Who will win? Who will fall? And what twisted surprises await?
