2020 might not have been a great year for Marvel movies. However, on the comic side of things, there is an entirely different story. One of the great Marvel Comics success stories this year was their collaboration with Tsuburaya Productions to bring readers The Rise of Ultraman. Thankfully, due to the success of that run, we get to see the Japanese hero in action again in a new series coming in March!
The same creative team behind The Rise of Ultraman is set to return for the new 5-issue series titled The Trials of Ultraman. The unchanged team consists of writers Kyle Higgins, Mat Groom, and artist Francesco Manna.

Following from The Rise of Ultraman, the new series will continue hot on the heels of the previous series, after Ultraman managed to change the course of a global catastrophe, at a price. The new series will explore the many repercussions and consequences of what went down, bringing his biggest challenge yet. The official announcement reads as follows:
Higgins and Groom followed that up with their own statement:
Superhero comics aside, Marvel Comics also recently announced that they were expanding the Alien universe with a new series. Clearly, with tons of exciting projects in the pipeline, these are exciting times indeed.
