For Better or For Worse

The Thing & Alicia Masters

in Fantastic Four (2018) #5

No bait. No switch. Not a dream. Not a hoax. And we swear, not a single Skrull around. Ben Grimm and Alicia say “I do!” in a wedding that was years in the making.

Hulkling & Wiccan

in Empyre (2020) #4

Storm & Black Panther

A teenage romance (see: Storm’s 2006 series), blossoms into a union between two major power players. And what’s a traditional Wakandan wedding without a trippy spirit journey to meet Panther God, Bast?

Wasp & Yellowjacket (er…Ant-Man)

in Avengers (1963) #60

Janet Van Dyne embraces the tradition of “something old, something new”…with her groom! Following “accident-induced schizophrenia”, Hank Pym adopts his manic Yellowjacket persona – who is apparently more of the marrying kind than Ant-Man!

Jean Grey & Cyclops

in X-Men (1991) #30

Original X-Men and each other’s first loves, Jean and Scott Summers tie the knot in this much-amped issue. Fun fact: Jean’s dress was based off a sketch by fashion designer Nicole Miller!

Mary Jane Watson & Spider-Man

in Amazing Spider-Man Annual (1964) #21

Peter Parker finally hits the jackpot! Assembled before their friends and family, the Friendly Neighborhood wall-crawler and the actress/model make it official. ‘Bout time too – MJ turned down Peter’s proposals twice, first in Amazing Spider-Man #183 and again in #291!

Shiklah & Deadpool

in Deadpool (2012) #27

The day he never dreamed would come has finally arrived! The mouthy merc marries his Queen of the Undead in this definitely-not-sacrilegious special. The X-Men’s Nightcrawler officiates!

Rogue & Gambit

in X-Men: Gold (2017) #30

After years, (or a near 2 decades) of on-off love, the mutant lovebirds take on holy matrimony! And surprise! They hijack the failed wedding ceremony of Kitty Pryde and Colossus! Re-gifting, anyone?

Scarlet Witch & Vision, Mantis & “Swordsman”

in Giant-Size Avengers (1974) #4
