Pioneering how comics were collected, the original BRING ON THE BAD GUYS collected key early stories of Marvel’s most iconic supervillains.
The upcoming new BRING ON THE BAD GUYS delivers a blood-pounding experience across seven one-shots starring those same infamous characters: DOCTOR DOOM, GREEN GOBLIN, ABOMINATION, LOKI, RED SKULL, DORMAMMU, and MEPHISTO.
The overarching saga will be spearheaded by Emmy Award-winning writer Marc Guggenheim who kick things off in BRING ON THE BAD GUYS: DOCTOR DOOM alongside acclaimed artist Stefano Raffaele and delivers the event’s epic conclusion in BRING ON THE BAD GUYS: MEPHISTO.
