Marvel Comics Reveals New Captain Marvel Series and Daredevil #700 - NYCC 2026
Marvel Comics announced major upcoming projects at New York Comic Con 2026 during a panel led by newly appointed Editor-in-Chief Stephen Wacker. The publisher revealed a brand-new ongoing Captain Marvel series launching in early 2027, featuring Carol Danvers navigating a dark new status quo following the destructive events of Avengers: Armageddon. The series will be written by G. Willow Wilson, the acclaimed co-creator of the current Ms. Marvel incarnation, Kamala Khan. Wilson shifts her focus from Khan’s story to explore Danvers’ character arc in the new volume.
The announcements also included the forthcoming Daredevil #700 milestone issue, scheduled for the same early 2027 release window. Both projects represent Marvel’s continued investment in flagship superhero properties and significant character-driven narratives. The milestone numbering of Daredevil #700 indicates the character’s long publication history and the significance placed on this particular issue. These early 2027 releases follow a period of leadership transition at Marvel Comics, with Wacker’s recent appointment to editor-in-chief signaling potential strategic shifts in the publisher’s editorial direction.
