Additionally, Whatnot users should keep an eye out for “a limited edition comic book signing and in-app giveaway.” This won’t be the only thing Marvel is offering up to fans, as attendees will also be able to get their hands on an exclusive New Mutants #27 variant with art by Leinil Yu and Sunny Gho on July 23rd and wrap around a variant of Women of Marvel #1 by Elena Casagrande and Jordie Bellaire. If you are subscribed to Marvel Unlimited Annual Plus, you will also receive an exclusive Captain Marvel #39 variant featuring Carol Danvers and Jeff the Landshark. If you are not a subscriber, don’t worry! Those who subscribe will “receive an exclusive pin, patch, or action figure.”

At the main Marvel booth, fans can buy their choice of convention-exclusive t-shirts and jerseys. “This year’s apparel calls back to fan-favorite moments from Thor, Doctor Strange, Captain America, and more.” These include, but are not limited to, a sweatshirt with Punisher’s new logo, a Captain America shirt sporting the “I Can Do This All Day” iconic line, a t-shirt with the phrase “I’m A Really Good Lawyer” with Daredevil from Spiderman No Way Home, a shirt sporting all three live-action spider-men, a shirt from Rogers the Musical, a Captain Carter magnet, and a Darkhold journal.

Eve of Judgement #1 variant by Peach Momoko and a Wolverine #23 variant by Salvador Larroca.
Their schedule for each day is also chock-full of excitement for any convention goer. Those with extensive knowledge of the company’s comics and films should not miss out on the Trivia Time with Marvel Insider scheduled for each day of the convention. For Whatnot users, a demo and live auction will also be on the 22nd and 23rd, with a “Big Marvel Giveaway” scheduled on the 24th.

The 23rd also brings two panels: Marvel Comics: Judgement Day and Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing. Join Cebulski for both events as he discusses what’s next for the Avengers, X-Men, and Eternals after Eve of Judgement with some of its biggest contributors, followed by a panel with more of Marvel’s most prestigious writers to discuss what’s next for Shang-Chi, Ms. Marvel, and Ghost Rider as well as a discussion on the new event Dark Web and how it will affect Spider-Man and the X-Men.
