Fortnite’s next Marvel collab will be nothing less than fabulous.

During the Horizons: Disney Experiences panel at this year’s D23 event, Kevin Feige announced that Marvel’s next collab will, unsurprisingly, revolve around Doctor Doom. But the most promising thing about the event’s trailer is the number of X-Men (like Emma Frost) who popped up.

Doctor Doom’s comics legacy is so much bigger than his Iron Man connections

Victor von Doom is one of Marvel’s most iconic characters for a reason, and his MCU debut could easily be Kevin Feige’s most fantastic or dreadful idea yet.

James Gunn’s Creature Commandos looks like some sort of monstrous suicide squad.

Technically speaking, Amanda Waller (Viola Davis) not allowed to run her typical Task Force X in Max’s new animated Creature Commandos series. But monsters like the Bride (Indira Varma), Eric Frankenstein (David Harbour), Nina Mazursky (Zoë Chao), and Weasel (Sean Gunn) aren’t technically human, which is why you’ll be seeing them going on suicidal missions this winter.
