While reading IGN comics, I came across what Marvel is releasing in September. Here are the highlights...
The first Spider-man: Anti-Venom.
AMAZING SPIDER-MAN PRESENTS: ANTI-VENOM— NEW WAYS TO LIVE #1 (of 3)
Written by ZEB WELLS
Penciled by PAULO SIQUEIRA
Cover by MIRCO PIERFEDERICI
What's Black, White and Dead all over?!?!
From the pages of last year's best-selling NEW WAYS TO DIE, Zeb Wells (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN; NEW MUTANTS) and Paulo Siqueira (AMAZING SPIDER-MAN, MS. MARVEL) bring you the story of Eddie Brock, the sallow symbiote known as Anti-Venom!
With his life saved by Spider-Man, Eddie is cautiously walking the line between the darkness and light while trying to find his place in a world marked only by gray. The absolute last person he needs to run into is the Punisher. Unfortunately, the Punisher remembers Eddie as a cold-blooded killer, and that is just gonna hurt.
ULTIMATE COMICS ARMOR WARS #1 (of 4)
Written by WARREN ELLIS
Penciled by STEVE KURTH
Cover by BRANDON PETERSON
Villain Variant by CARLOS PACHECO
Special Variant by TBA
Exploding from the ruins of ULTIMATUM, Tony Stark races against time to save his crippled corporation and stop the theft of his armored arsenal! Superstar writer WARREN ELLIS (ULTIMATE HUMAN) teams up with rising talent STEVE KURTH (IRON MAN) to bring you a globe-spanning, high-octane thriller with a blast from Tony's past that you've gotta see to believe!
DARK AVENGERS/UNCANNY X-MEN: EXODUS
Written by MATT FRACTION
Penciled by MIKE DEODATO
Cover by STEVE MCNIVEN
Variant Cover by SIMONE BIANCHI
The climactic conclusion to the crossover event of 2009 is here!
This is it, the final battle for the Dark Avengers and the X-Men that will change the status quo for the Marvel Universe. Emma Frost's betrayal comes home to roost. Cyclops' plan clicks into place, but is it too late? What can the X-Men do against the Sentry and Ares?
One I am personally looking forward to is Dark Avengers #9. From the cover it looks like Fury is back. I am stoked!
DARK AVENGERS #9
Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS
Pencils & Cover by MIKE DEODATO
Poor Marvel Boy... he had no idea how sinister a gang the Dark Avengers actually is. And now he is running for his life. And poor Ares, he has no idea where his son goes while he is off being an Avenger. And now he is going to find out. And when he does... there will be hell to play.
Guest-starring Nick Fury and the Secret Warriors. Oh, you heard that right. Ares versus Nick Fury! You know when Stan used to say 'nuff said? This is the kind of thing he was 'nuff saiding about!
A comic that sounds somewhat unique in the Dark Reign thread is this one...

Written by FRANK TIERI
Penciled by KHOI PHAM, RAFA SANDOVAL, JOHN PAUL LEON, BEN OLIVER & ANTONIO FUSO

Attuma is resurrected by Doctor Doom! A new Jack O'Lantern confronts the police! Gamma Corps confronts the Iron Patriot! And the new Enforcer marks his territory with the Hood!

These were the comics I thought sound really cool and will be good reads. There is a laundry list of other comics Marvel has coming out this fall and can be found here:
