Marvel is jumping off New York Comic Con 2024 with a series of teasers for new productions from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Daredevil: Born Again, and Captain America: Brave New World.
Prominent MCU characters have been featured on various covers to greet show attendees to the convention and conference located in New York. Agatha Harkness, who is presently in the middle of dazzling Disney+ viewers with her show, Agatha All Along, and a fiery Johnny Storm, are some faces shown in the picture.

While some footage pre-game hints at the creature, our best look at him may come from this NYCC art.H.E.R.B.I.E. is a little more easily missed as Marvel’s “A”‘s bottom left corner shows him. Though this live-action sneak peek provides us a better view of some of the features, including the brilliant-blue team emblem emblazoned on his chest, the adorable little robot friend of The Fantastic Four had before appeared in the cast reveal image revealed early this year.
Another indicator of the start of the artwork is a drawing of what seems to be Charlie Cox’s Daredevil, but it’s unclear if the actor will wear this all-red look when his new show premieres next year.
