An official description for Marvel’s Midnight Universe reads, “Blending the power of Marvel Comics storytelling with the thrills of horror, Midnight is a bold, interconnected new Universe that completely reimagines the Marvel mythos through a horror lens. In the debut issues, readers will witness the cursed fate of mutantkind, the gruesome transformation of Peter Parker, and the lengths the Fantastic Four are willing to go in the name of scientific discovery. And this is only the beginning for the creator’s long-term vision for this new publishing line!”
Dan Buckley, Executive Director of the Midnight series, previously expressed his excitement and confidence in the new publishing line. He said, “The more we talked about Midnight, the more we realized it was far more than just the birth of another new universe.”
Midnight Spider-Man #1, Midnight X-Men #1, and Midnight Fantastic Four #1 will initially go on sale on October 7, 2026, followed by the Second Printings on October 28, 2026.
