Disney Cruise Line, Marvel Comics join forces in exclusive new comic
CEBU, Philippines — Disney Cruise Line and Marvel Comics announced a new Special Edition of Amazing Adventures #1 – an all-original 32-page collectors’ comic featuring Spider-Man, the Avengers, and a host of Marvel’s finest Super Heroes, many who will be found onboard the Disney Adventure.
This ultra-limited-edition release has been specially created to celebrate the inaugural season of the Disney Adventure which begins this December. Complimentary copies of the Amazing Adventures comic will be made available exclusively to all guests in their staterooms on board selected sailings.
The Amazing Adventures Special Edition 2025 comic will be authored and illustrated by a team led by writer Alyssa Wong, who is recognized for their work on the 2020 Marvel comic book series “Star Wars: Doctor Aphra” and the 2022 Deadpool comic book series.
Marvel Comics will also team up with legendary comic book artist Leinil Francis Yu, who has extensive experience illustrating Marvel characters – including co-creating the first Filipino Marvel Super Hero Wave – to provide cover art for this exclusive comic book.
Disney Cruise Line and Marvel Comics are also providing a first look at the cover art, which includes well-known Marvel characters such as Captain America, Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Thor, which guests can expect to see during their Disney Adventure cruise vacation.
“We’re thrilled to be working with our friends from Disney Cruise Line to bring this exclusive comic book to life! The new Marvel adventure will have the high seas as a backdrop to an action-packed plot, and will not only feature the highly anticipated Disney Adventure, but also a familiar Marvel hero, Wave, hailing from the Philippines,” said Marvel Comics’ Editor-In-Chief, C.B. Cebulski.
Marvel’s Amazing Adventures series was first introduced as an anthology-style comic book series in the 1960s. The 2025 Special Edition that will be available on the ship not only pays tribute to the title’s historical significance in Marvel’s comic book legacy, but also celebrates the Disney Adventure’s major milestone of being the first Disney Cruise Line ship to homeport in Asia.
The Disney Adventure will set sail from Singapore on its maiden voyage on December 15, 2025. To book a magical cruise holiday on the Disney Adventure, guests can visit http://www.disneycruise.com/adventure, or contact their preferred travel agents.
