May 6, 2026 New Marvel Comics: Spider-Man Returns, Civil War: Unmasked Launches, and the Full Release List

Wednesday, May 6, 2026 brings one of the densest Marvel Comics weeks of the spring — Spider-Man finally swings back to Earth, the Invincible Woman arc roars to its finale, and Christos Gage and Edgar Salazar revive Civil War for a long-rumored 20th-anniversary miniseries. Here's the full breakdown of what's hitting comic shops, what's worth your pull list, and which collected editions are dropping the same day.

Spider-Man Finally Comes Home

The big return: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (2025) #28 by Joe Kelly, Francesco Manna, and Cory Smith. After his battle with Torment, Venom, and Carnage — and a long absence from Earth — Peter is buried in unfinished business. Get his life back together? Later. Damage control at work? Not now. A time-traveling magical threat to all of space and time? Go, Spidey, go!

Younger readers get their own headline title in ASTONISHING MILES MORALES: SPIDER-MAN — THE ART OF THWIP (2026) #1 by Cody Ziglar and Alessandro Miracolo. Miles is up against three new threats at once — Bumbler's art-robbery spree, Hightail's super-speed mission, and Frost Pharaoh's assault on Brooklyn Visions Academy — and his amazing friends will need to show up if he wants to walk out the other side.

Civil War: Unmasked Marks 20 Years

The crown jewel of the week is CIVIL WAR: UNMASKED (2026) #1, a five-issue miniseries timed to the 20th anniversary of the original 2006 event. Writer Christos Gage, artist Edgar Salazar, and returning colorist Morry Hollowell tell the unseen stories of Iron Man, Spider-Man, Goliath, Tigra, and Captain America before, during, and after Civil War.

"An urgent mission from Bishop takes Tony Stark into the Days of Future Past, where the revelation of the apocalyptic future changes everything Tony thought he knew about the consequences of the Superhuman Registration Act."

For longtime readers, the Bishop hook is the most provocative thread — pulling a Days of Future Past framing into a Civil War retrospective is the kind of crossover Marvel rarely commits to outside of a major event year.

Fantastic Four #10: The Invincible Woman Finale

In FANTASTIC FOUR (2025) #10 by Ryan North and Humberto Ramos, the Invincible Woman has reached Earth — already fending off an invasion it can't win. Humanity's last hope is the Fantastic Four and S.H.I.E.L.D. working together. With the Invincible Woman besting even Susan Storm, the question becomes who can stand against her — and whether Galactus himself survives.

Daredevil, Storm, Cyclops, and More

Elsewhere on the slate: Matt Murdock trades the courtroom for the lectern in DAREDEVIL (2026) #2 by Stephanie Phillips and Lee Garbett, where the future-seeing villain Omen targets him personally. And to mark the tenth anniversary of Rogue One, Benjamin Percy and Luke Ross kick off STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE — CASSIAN ANDOR (2026) #1, a tense espionage thriller set on the lawless trade hub of Kafrene before the events of the film.
