Image Comics To Collect ‘The End League’ With The ‘Complete Collection’

by Olly MacNamee

Writer Rick Remender and artists Eric Canete, Mat Broome, Andy Macdonald, and colourist Matt Wilson are to have their miniseries The End League collected into a new trade paperback due out in March from Image Comics. So, all that’s left for me to inform you of is the synopsis, the publishing date and a preview too.

Originally published in 2008, will feature a new cover by Canete and Wilson — and brought back to shelves in March 2026 from Image Comics. Now, onmto that series overview and preview:

“In the New York Times bestselling hit series The End League, the world didn’t end with a bang, it ended with a takeover. Decades ago, the villains won. Civilization was reshaped into a brutal, broken landscape ruled by tyrants, cults, and monsters wearing familiar masks. Now the few remaining heroes — archetypes forged from the DNA of modern mythology — must attempt one final impossible mission: cross a villain dominated Earth to locate the last surviving artifact capable of turning the tide — the Hammer of Thor.

At its core, The End League is an examination of what super-humans would really mean for an ordinary planet: the catastrophic consequences of even the smallest mistake by an all-powerful being, and the ugly reality of what average people might do once handed impossible power. Essential reading for fans of Remender’s Uncanny X-Force.”

Here’s Remender on the personal significance of this superhero series:

The End League was my first superhero story and my first hit series. It was also the DNA for much of my later work at Marvel. It’s the end of the modern myth: a true finale. The kind of story you can’t tell in a corporate universe, because the stakes here are real and there’s no reset waiting around the corner. It’s a world where the rotten outnumber and overwhelm the noble, leaving a small band of heroes with one last shot to try and prove that a few people with good intentions can still stand against a world of corruption.”

The End League Complete Collection trade paperback will be available at local comic book shops on Wednesday, March 11th, 2026, and in book stores on Tuesday, April 7th, 2026.
