The strange, hooded figure has been a presence in the life of Superman stretching back before Rebirth and there are number of theories as to who he’s going to turn out to be. With the final revelation just weeks away, we’ve taken a look at all the available evidence so far and have a pretty good idea that it isn’t the person you might expect.

He killed Superman — and readers loved it, making it one of the best-selling storylines in the history of comics.

In Drawing Crazy Patterns, I spotlight at least five scenes/moments from within comic book stories that fit under a specific theme (basically, stuff that happens frequently in comics). Today, based on a suggestion from reader Rodrigo M., we will look at times that Daredevil’s secret identity was discovered! Our first example comes from Daredevil #24, where Spider-Man writes Matt Murdock a letter to let him know that he knows that he is Daredevil, but that he will keep mum about it. The thing is, Karen Page opened it instead! The next issue, Karen and Foggy confront Matt… And he convinces them that Daredevil is his twin brother, Mike Murdock… Mike later “dies.” Later on, the villainous Starr Saxon puts a tracker on Daredevil and discovers his identity in Daredevil #51… Saxon then later dies (he becomes a new supervillain post-death as his consciousness is transferred to a robot, but since he never came a calling, it is likely that he lost t

New photos emerging from the set of Avengers 4 seem to confirm rumors that Hawkeye will adopt a new identity in the Marvel Studios sequel: Ronin. RELATED: Rumor: Hawkeye Assumes New Identity in Avengers 4 The images depict actor Jeremy Renner wearing a long black coat that covers the majority of his body. However, as he walks the coat opens to reveal black boots with a gold trim, which match up with his Ronin identity from the comics, where Barton traded his signature bow and arrows for twin katanas in the fallout from Civil War in order to keep his identity a secret. すごい遠景だけどアベンジャーズ４(仮)のホークアイの写真出てた。今回の衣装は(も？)黒ベースで差し色が金になるの&#

With the release of Thor: Ragnarok and Black Panther, everything will be in place for next year’s Avengers: Infinity War. With so much hype and excitement surrounding the mysterious yet undoubtedly massive cosmic team-up movie, everyone is wondering how every one of their favorite characters will factor into the plot, what Thanos will bring to the table, and how the Guardians of the Galaxy will react to meeting Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. But Infinity War is only the first part of this milestone event. The final chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase Three era, the still untitlted Avengers 4, is shrouded in even more mystery.

SPOILER WARNING: The following article contains major spoilers for Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man #6 by Chip Zdarsky, Michael Walsh, Ian Herring and Travis Lanham, on sale now. Peter Parker’s secret identity is one of the most sacred things in superhero comics. The amount of people he lets into his life to the point of knowing that he is in fact Spider-Man is incredibly limited and if you’re in that inner circle it’s safe to say you’re incredibly important to him; even his Aunt May doesn’t know. That’s why the events of this week’s Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man are so shocking, because of all the people Peter could have revealed the truth about himself to, virtually no-one would ever expect that he would tell J. Jonah Jameson, much less do so willingly! Threat and/or Menace J.

SPOILER WARNING: This article contains major spoilers for Infinity Wars #1 by Gerry Duggan, Mike Deodato Jr., Frank Martin and VC’s Cory Petit, on sale now. When Marvel Comics first began promoting Infinity Wars, the only thing we knew was it would continue the Infinity Stones saga from Infinity Countdown while introducing a secret mystery character named Requiem. Since then, Marvel has released various images teasing the death of a major character at the hands of Requiem, a tease that became a reality in Infinity Wars Prime #1 when Requiem killed Thanos. However, as shocking as it was to see that scene play out, it still never answered the larger question: Who is Requiem? Also, why has this brand-new character inserted themselves into the battle for the Infinity Stones?
