Nine Marvel series will end in October even as the publisher debuts Uncanny Avengers #1, the first title in its sweeping Marvel NOW! initiative.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to Marvel\u2019s October solicitations, which went live this morning, the month will mark the conclusions of Captain America, Fantastic Four, FF, Incredible Hulk, Invincible Iron Man, New Mutants, The Mighty Thor, Uncanny X-Men and X-Men Legacy.<\/p>\n

Naturally, some of those aren\u2019t entirely unexpected, as the new Uncanny Avengers, by Rick Remender and John Cassaday, will be joined in November by All-New X-Men, by Brian Michael Bendis and Stuart Immonen, followed by Avengers, by Jonathan Hickman and Jerome Opena, in December and New Avengers, by Hickman and Steve Epting, in January. Likewise, Ed Brubaker revealed two weeks ago that he\u2019s ending his acclaimed seven-year-run on Captain America, a departure that dovetails nicely into Marvel\u2019s relaunch plans.<\/p>\n

However, what will replace such mainstay titles as Fantastic Four, Incredible Hulk, Invincible Iron Man and The Mighty Thor, and when, remains to be seen. Although it\u2019s unlikely the publisher will go too long without versions of those comics on the shelves, Marvel has promised a slow rollout of relaunches between October and February.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel that it\u2019s a much more humane approach for retailers and fans to tell them: \u2018Look. In the months of October through February, every week you can go into a comic book store and find a few new jumping-on points for the Marvel Universe, a place you\u2019re going to like visiting. Or revisiting,\u2019\u201d Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso said last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cMarvel NOW! starts with the creators,\u201d he explained to Comic Book Resources, \u201cso don\u2019t expect writer shake-ups across the line by the fourth or fifth issue, or half the titles to get cancelled and replaced by a new #1. We aren\u2019t throwing $#!# at a wall, seeing what falls off and then replacing it with more $#!#. [Laughs] We\u2019re building books we expect to last.\u201d<\/p>\n

Expect more details to emerge later this week at Comic-Con International.<\/p>\n
