Originally published exclusively in Japan as part of 2019’s Marvel × Shonen Jump+ Super Collaboration manga series, Takahashi’s ‘Secret Reverse’ sees “Spider-Man and Iron Man travel to Japan to battle an evil gaming magnate and his deadly new technology”.

Unsurprisingly, given the bibliography of two-part manga’s creator, Secret Reverse’s villain, Kaioh, battles the two heroes with a sinister monster-summoning card game system he touts as “the pinnacle of gaming science”.

Given the sheer quality and fun of similar such Japanese-takes-on-Western-comic-book-properties as Deadlpool: Samurai and One Operation JOKER, it should come as no surprise to anyone who reads Takahashi’s Spider-Man/Iron Man team-up that his over-the-top story is a more enjoyable take on the classic superheroes than Marvel proper has produced in quite a while.

According to VIZ, the full color Secret Reverse is set for an English release in Summer 2022.
