''Marvel NOW!'' is a 2012 relaunch of the various Creator/MarvelComics titles following the ''ComicBook/AvengersVsXMen'' CrisisCrossover as well as the events of ''Avengers Assemble'' volume 2. Marvel Editorial stressed that continuity was not being rebooted, so much as it was a company-wide relaunch featuring new creative teams taking over along with new directions for several of Marvel's bigger and some smaller titles. Compare to Creator/DCComics' similar ''ComicBook/New52'' initiative.

Other pre-existing and acclaimed titles, including '''''ComicBook/{{Daredevil|MarkWaid}}''''' [[note]]Ran for 37 issues (including a .1 issue) before being relaunched in ANMN with a new volume[[/note]], '''''ComicBook/{{Hawkeye|2012}}''''' and '''''ComicBook/{{Captain Marvel|MarvelComics}}''''' [[note]]Ran for 17 issues before being relaunched in ANMN with a new volume[[/note]], have also been giving the "Marvel NOW" branding without a creative team change or numbering restart.

In January 2014, Marvel launched "All-New Marvel Now" (ANMN) in similar fashion following ''ComicBook/{{Infinity}}'' Marvel's latest CrisisCrossover. Like the previous relaunch this one features both new ongoing series being released alongside previous ones that were cancelled and restarted with new volumes with a few series have kept their usual name, but added a "#1" on certain issues to signify new jump on points for new readers. Fall 2014 saw another round of new launches, under the umbrella title ''Avengers NOW'' (ANOW).

In May 2015, it was revealed that following ''ComicBook/{{Secret Wars|2015}}'', a new Marvel relaunch would happen under the name ComicBook/AllNewAllDifferentMarvel (ANADM). While not being a full-on {{continuity reboot}}, it served as an updating of the Franchise/MarvelUniverse, with new status quos and creative teams taking over existing characters and concepts. In 2016, Marvel returned to the [[ComicBook/MarvelNow2016 Marvel NOW! branding]], this time addressing the fallout of ''ComicBook/CivilWarII''.

There were three phases of the original Marvel NOW! initiative:

----
!!The Marvel NOW initiative contains examples of the following tropes:
* TheAdjectivalSuperhero: A bunch of new adjectives are being thrown around, including ''All-New'' X-Men, ''Fearless'' Defenders, ''Indestructible'' Hulk, ''Savage'' Wolverine, ''Superior'' Spider-Man, ''Unbeatable'' Squirrel Girl and ''Uncanny'' Avengers.
** ''All-New'' X-Men is actually a CallBack to ''X-Men'' #94 (the first issue with the revamped 1970s team) which had ''All-New, All-Different X-Men'' on the cover.
* DarkerAndEdgier:
** Definitely gives off that feel. Several characters like Iron Man and the new Spider-Man now sport black versions of their previously-colorful outfits. Yet despite that, most, though not all, the titles are largely no darker than prior to the Relaunch, tone-wise and story-wise.
** In the case of the new, "Superior" Spider-Man, WordOfGod even explicitly mentioned the character as a darker and edgier take on the nominally friendly-neighbourhood webslinger.
* ExpansionPackPast: The new ''Captain America'' mixes science fiction action with flashbacks that delve into Steve Rogers' past before becoming the Super-Soldier.
* InNameOnly: The original Thunderbolts were a team of reformed supervillains. The Marvel NOW version of the team is a book about a group of antiheroes lead by the ComicBook/RedHulk, with absolutely none of the original cast returning. Though when the team was created originally introduced, many fans thought it was a team working under Thunderbolt Ross (since their first appearance was in Incredible Hulk). So we've come full circle.
* LegacyCharacter: Otto Octavius as the Superior Spider-Man.
** AffirmativeActionLegacy:
*** Robbie Reyes (Hispanic) as the new Ghost Rider.
*** Sam Alexander (half-Mexican) as the new Nova
*** Kamala Khan (Pakistani-American) as the new Ms. Marvel.
*** Izzy Kane as the new Smasher.
*** Sam Wilson (African-American) as the new Captain America.
* NinetiesAntiHero: [[http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-nQ-Z5ZmRlHI/UH7j5-g7NmI/AAAAAAAACJg/WMwClzgGKqU/s1600/SUPSM2013001_CamunVAR.jpg Take a look at the promo art for the new Spider-Man]].
* NothingIsTheSameAnymore: Although the obvious point of comparison is [[Creator/DCComics DC's]] ''ComicBook/New52'', ''Marvel NOW!'' is not a reboot, more a series of relaunches. Many of them feature new status quos for the characters that build on the fallout from ''ComicBook/AvengersVsXMen'' -- the ''X-Men'' Franchise in particular has been hit pretty deeply by this.
** Doc Ock switched bodies with Peter Parker, killed his own body with Peter Parker in it, but not before inheriting all of Peter's memories. He is currently fighting crime under Spider-Man's mantle, as a "Superior" Spider-Man.
** The original Nick Fury has gone under the radar, being replaced with [[CanonImmigrant his son, who resembles Ultimate Nick Fury.]]
** Iron Man is a member of the Guardians of the Galaxy.
** The Avengers and the X-Men formed a united sub-team nicknamed the Uncanny Avengers.
** In ''Avengers vs X-Men'' Cyclops [[spoiler: killed Professor X while under the influence of the Phoenix Force, and is attempting to redeem himself while everyone he knows hates and fears him]]. Also, [[spoiler:the Phoenix Force is now destroyed[[note]]Given that based on previous storylines, the destruction of the Phoenix Force ought to result in the end of all life in the universe, it's anyone's guess how long this lasts before it's retconned.[[/note]], causing untold damage to the universe (some effects are briefly seen in Gillen's Iron Man run; the Celestials are now aware of aliens living off of their lifeblood, [[EarthShatteringKaboom and are not amused]])]].
** The "Age of Ultron" storyline, Ultron returned and is ruling over a dystopian world.
* {{Retcanon}}: The influence of the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse can be seen throughout the Avengers titles. Notably:
** The Hulk's new status quo reads just as sensibly as a follow-up to his appearance in ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}''.
** As does ComicBook/CaptainAmerica's new storyline, which has him fighting Arnim Zola. In addition, Cap's outfit seems to be directly inspired by his costumes in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'' and ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}''.
** The starting line-up of the Avengers is the same six characters who were seen in ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}''. The same goes for the reformed Guardians of the Galaxy who briefly had Bug back on their team when he was being considered for the movie. (he was promptly removed when Bug was dropped from the movie).
** The Secret Avengers roster features all the major S.H.I.E.L.D. characters in ''Avengers'', plus the ComicBook/WarMachine as the new Iron Patriot (an idea introduced in ''Film/IronMan3'') and [[ComicBook/BuckyBarnes Winter Soldier]] (who appears in 2014's ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'').
** Superior Spider-Man's second costume is an unused design Alex Ross created for the first ''Film/SpiderMan1'' movie.
** The central conflict of ''All-New ComicBook/CaptainAmerica'' is the revelation that Hydra has infiltrated everything.
** Less obviously, ''ComicBook/BuckyBarnes: The Winter Soldier'' has Bucky suspecting Loki and fighting him for an issue.
* SelfDeprecation: Dan Slott knows full well he's a controversial writer, and that his current run is highly controversial. Many interviews tend to have him acknowledge this, and he even joked that, after ''Amazing Spider-Man #700'', he'll have to hide under a rock.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Kieron Gillen has stated that he added Miss America Chavez to his new ComicBook/YoungAvengers line-up after being unable to use Patriot.
* WolverinePublicity: Pretty much all of the Avengers present in [[Film/TheAvengers2012 the movie]]. Iron Man is now in his own title, ''Avengers'', ''New Avengers'', ''Avengers Assemble'', a digital mini series and ''Guardians of the Galaxy''. Captain America has his own book, ''Avengers'', ''New Avengers'', ''Avengers Assemble'', and ''Uncanny Avengers''. ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}} and ComicBook/BlackWidow are in ''Avengers'', ''Avengers Assemble'', and ''Secret Avengers'', with Hawkeye also having his own solo book and Black Widow getting one herself later on. The Hulk has his own title, ''Avengers'', ''Avengers Assemble'', and ''Secret Avengers''.
** Ironically ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} is the least exposed in comparison.
** The Avengers name is being slapped on quite a few books (seven, so far), even on books that don't really have anything to do with them. ''Secret Avengers'' is more ComicBook/{{SHIELD}} based and ''ComicBook/AvengersArena'' centers around a Literature/TheHungerGames type scenario.
** In the wake of their [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014 surprise hit movie]], the ''ComicBook/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'' have been benefiting from this big time. In addition to the main title, Marvel has launched, the ''Guardians 3000'' based off the original far-future team, plus solo books for Star-Lord, Rocket Raccoon, and Gamora, in addition to giving the latter two big roles in the ''Original Sin'' CrisisCrossover and a upcoming another ongoing ''Guardians Team Up'' announced for 2015.
* WritingForTheTrade: Although individual issues tend to be good reads, Marvel Now comics seem written not for the trade, but the ''omnibus'' - long, slow-burning plots seem to be the order of the day. Most trades end on cliffhangers, or act as groundwork and foreshadowing for much bigger stories.
** Biggest offenders of this being Creator/BrianMichaelBendis and Creator/JonathanHickman.
