As both a gamer and an avid comics reader I am 100% aware of the fomo model that goes into collectibles in free-to-play video games based on popular IP. This is why right now, you should know that If you’re playing Marvel Rivals and want the free Jeff the Land Shark “UNLIMITED APPETITE” spray, You have until Christmas day on December 25th to sign up for an account on Marvel Unlimited. Anyone with an account registered on or before that day will receive an e-mail on January 3rd confirming their free in-game graffiti spray.
Now atop this new collectible is the release of a brand new six-issue Marvel Unlimited comic series. Written by Paul Allor and drawn by Luca Claretti, this comic is a great way to serve as a story tie-in to the video game, all to help establish its lore and characters.
Personally, having been around in the early Overwatch days, when comics and video games seemed as natural together as bread and butter, I’d not sleep on this as this is the big comeback I do see happening in the future in regards to gaming and comics. Each can help the other as though they’re both incredibly art-heavy, we’re in a strange time in entertainment where they make up for where the other is lacking (Gaming with the target audience comics is losing. Comics with the story elements gaming is weirdly abandoning in favor of arena-like shoot-em games).
If that wasn’t enough, Marvel has also announced a special free addition to the Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game on December 20: Free character sheets for 12 different super heroes including Spider-Man, Hulk, Iron Man, Scarlet Witch, Black Panther, Luna Snow, and more.
If you’re a fan of any of this, I’d read more in the official press release below.
