Hot off his star-making appearance in Marvel Rivals, everyone’s favorite walking fish boy is sharpening his teeth for the launch of his first starring print miniseries!

Announced at ComicsPro, superstar co-creator Kelly Thompson, who took Jeff to Eisner-nominated heights in the hit It’s Jeff Infinity Comic, and acclaimed artist Tokitokoro up the stakes on Jeff’s adventures this June in JEFF THE LAND SHARK!

The five-issue limited series see Jeff make a splash all across the Marvel Universe as he teams up with the friends he’s made over the years, outsmarts more than a few rivals, and unleashes all-new abilities!

In response to the announcement, Thompson said in a Marvel press release:

“Seeing Jeff rocket to stardom has been wild, and also exactly what he deserves. I’m obviously as biased as you can get, but what’s not to love about an adorable land shark that wants to be friends with and/or eat everything he sees?”
“I’m thrilled that the slow burn success of Jeff in comics and the wildfire success of Jeff in Marvel Rivals can work together to bring us the opportunity for not only more Jeff stories, but more complex Jeff stories. The It’s Jeff series works almost like perfectly executed jokes, and I couldn’t love it more; but it’s exciting to take on the challenge of the complicated narrative that you can get from a mini-series.”
