The Killuminati are demented duplicates of the Illuminati who will debut this June in New Avengers by Sam Humphries and Ton Lima, the series previously announced as New Thunderbolts*. Check them out!

"Thunderbolts*" is playing in theaters now. The film is directed by Jake Schreier and stars Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, David Harbour, Wyatt Russell, Olga Kurylenko, Lewis Pullman, Geraldine Viswanathan, Chris Bauer, Wendell Edward Price, Hannah John-Kamen, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

In Superior Avengers #5 by writer Steve Foxe and artists Luca Maresca and Kyle Hotz, that conflict comes to a head as Doom's heir Kristoff Vernard may find himself at the wrong end of a knife, as shown on the issue's main cover by RB Silva, seen here alongside Kyle Hotz's variant cover:

The major studios have learned not to put out high profile titles in the wake of a Marvel movie – hence why Eli Craig's Clown In A Cornfield, Joe Carnahan's Shadow Force, and James Madigan's Fight Or Flight were Friday's big new arrivals – and that set the box office up for another big showdown between Jake Schreier's Thunderbolts* and Ryan Coogler's Sinners.

Marvel has revealed the official nickname of the New Avengers, making it clear what makes the team unique compared to the original Avengers.

The codependent 'Thunderbolts*' team isn't the one fans asked for, but it is also the most exciting group to emerge from the MCU in over a decade.
