In a grand tribute to one of comics’ most unorthodox characters, Marvel Comics presents Howard the Duck #1, an extraordinary 50th-anniversary celebration for the quack-tacular detective! Chip Zdarsky and Joe Quinones, the creative powerhouses behind Howard’s acclaimed 2015 series, reunite to deliver an oversized one-shot.
Zdarsky and Quinones will be joined by talented writers and artists, this one-shot extravaganza delves deep into the history of the feathered private eye. The entire team will bring new tales and pose questions about the character’s future through these new adventures.

- Popular video game designer and writer Merritt K makes her Marvel Comics debut alongside artist Will Robson with a cosmic comedy that sees Howard the Duck leaving the chaos of Earth behind to take over as leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy!
