Punisher's Sleek New Marvel Rivals Costume Revealed

Punisher's Sleek New Marvel Rivals Costume Revealed

_Thanos _ The Mad Titan has healing abilities similar to Wolverine's mutant healing factor. Wolverine is known for being one of the most resilient mutants and durable characters in the Marvel universe. His body has been mangled and battered throughout comic book history but survives brutal attacks from some of Marvel's strongest characters such as The Hulk . Thanos, one of Marvel's most powerful supervillains has shown a healing ability equal to that of the X-Men's most notable team member. The power-obsessed villain infatuated with death has displayed yet another ability that makes him a worthy opponent for Marvel's strongest her

Thanos made his debut in The Invincible Iron Man#55 by Jim Starlin in 1973. Starlin credits DC's New Gods storyline created by Jack Kirby as a source of inspiration for Thanos. He is a part of the Deviant race, relatives of the near-omnipotent Eternals . Born on Saturn's moon called Titan, The Mad Titan was a misfit from birth because of his mutant gene. His genes made his physical appearance drastically different from his fellow titans, ostracizing him from society. His appearance was so ghastly that his mother tried to kill him after sensing evil within him. Obsessed with power and Mistress Death, Thanos is on a lifelong quest to create mass murder and become stron

The new look comes from a variant cover by Jonas Scharf, appearing on Daredevil/Punisher: The Devil's Trigger #2 . The cover comes from a new initiative showing Marvel heroes in winterwear, with Punisher in a sleeveless vest with a simplified version of his skull logo and winter camo pants, wielding an axe. It's clear Frank is hiding out while laying in wait for a particularly elusive tar

Character buffs and nerfs don't matter in the Zombies Mode, as it stands out as a PvE co-op match type that can be done with 1–4 players at a time . From those players, you can pick from five different heroes in a match of Zombies, from the following fa

Comic fans of the Hulk have been well-served by Marvel Rivals . Available cosmetics include takes on his gangster form as Joe Fixit, post-apocalyptic form as the Maestro, and alien warlord form as the Green Scar . However, there's still room for a truly dark take on the Hulk. While the Knullified design above would be ideal, other options include the Titan form (from when Hulk was possessed by D'Spayre) and his Kluh form from the AXIS event. These are the truly evil versions of the Hulk, and would unlock his full potential for intimidat

The covers will be available on select covers of comics published across December. But while there are some fun alternate looks on display, only Scharf's Punisher truly looks like a costume Frank would wear on a winter mission, complete with shoulder holst

As the new Darkchild, Illyana has bright red skin, black clothing, tapering horns and cloven hooves. Borne aloft by her "demon knight" Juggernaut , Darkchild's full backstory is a mystery, but fans learned in Age of Revelation #0 that Magik died in a tragic mission with the X-Men, only to rise again as the demonic Darkch

The key to Matt Murdock's success is how you recognize which skills to use in different situations. With abilities for melee combat, mid-range projectiles, AoE hellfire, and swift mobility, Daredevil's tools are vast in **Marvel Rivals ** , but the right combination of them could make you the most dangerous combatant on the battlefi

A new look just met that high bar, as Marvel unleashes the Knullified Hulk. This is a version of Hulk who has inherited the mantle of the King in Black, aka the God of Symbiotes. Hulk sprouts black symbiote spikes all over his body, as well as needle teeth and Knull's red scorpion logo. It's a look that would fit perfectly into Marvel Rivals , making Hulk look imposing in all three fo

The newest Duelist character in **Marvel Rivals ** Season 4.5 is Daredevil, the acrobatic crime-fighter from Hell's Kitchen, now elevated as protector of the divine Eigth City. Infused with the demonic power of The Beast entity, Matt Murdock's abilities are far beyond his usual heightened senses. This creates a blend of skills new and old for a complex character that players might struggle to find success w

The new look is part of a Knullified variant cover initiative starring various heroes, set to celebrate the return of Venom's nemesis, who is getting his own series in January 2026. Coming from Al Ewing, Tom Waltz and Juanan Ramírez, the series follows Knull who - though resurrected - has had his powers and station stolen by the Asgardian goddess Hela . The Knullified Hulk design and cover are by Leinil Francis Yu and will appear on select copies of Infernal Hulk

These looks would make the most of Hulk's 'Monster Hulk' ultimate , where he becomes even bigger and more powerful. In the comics, Hulk himself doesn't usually change into an alternate form in this way. However, that was the case for Titan Hulk and Kluh, and would logically be the case for site a Hulk who gained the powers of Knclass=
