Marvel Announces Indiana Jones Miniseries 'Sword of Pandemonium'

The five‑issue series is positioned as a test case for a new era of Indy comics that will depend on reader interest and sales.

Overview

  • Marvel revealed Indiana Jones and the Sword of Pandemonium at the Lucasfilm Publishing panel during San Diego Comic‑Con on Friday, July 24, 2026.
  • The story will run as a five‑issue limited series written by Jason Aaron with art by Aaron Kuder and is set after Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark.
  • Marvel’s official synopsis says Marion Ravenwood comes into possession of a powerful "biblical weapon" and that Indy must race the globe as old villains and the "impossible return of an archenemy" pursue that power.
  • Marvel will reissue the company’s 1980s Indiana Jones comics as two deluxe hardcovers in September 2026, and the new miniseries is scheduled to debut in December 2026.
  • Marvel frames the miniseries as the start of a possible relaunch of Indy comics, a move that aims to restore the franchise’s pulpy adventure tone and could shape future publishing depending on sales and reader response.
