Those Jane Foster keys continue to trend upwards, but don’t overlook Bane’s first appearance that cracked the top-100 Hottest Comics. Let's talk trending comics.

It’s time again to take a deeper dive into the Hottest Comics. Not surprisingly, those movie and streaming series keys are the driving force on the market. It's not only the latest MCU news generating buzz. Which issues should have your attention? Take a look.

33. WHAT IF…? #10 (+25)

The Goddess of Thunder is setting the world on fire. After the latest round of Love and Thunder trailers, Jane Foster is getting all the attention. Fans can’t wait to see her in a Marvel movie again, and it’s lit the beacons for all those Thunder Goddess key issues.

Many collectors have been taking aim at What If…? #10 as soon as Marvel announced Jane would wield Mjolnir. In this 1978 issue, fans saw Jane become worthy of Thor’s powers, though it was noncanonical. 

37. GHOST RIDER #28 (+6)

Despite rumors to the contrary, there was no Ghost Rider appearance in Multiverse of Madness. Still, theorists are confident that the Spirit of Vengeance is coming to the MCU in some fashion. With Blade, Doctor Strange, and now Clea in the mix, it is fueling speculation that the Midnight Sons will be formed for the silver screen.

This is not a new rumor by any means, but it is one that refuses to fade away. That is what keeps their first appearance in GR #28 climbing the charts.

43. MARVEL SUPER-HEROES SECRET WARS #3 (NEW TO THE LIST)

The fan base may be divided on the She-Hulk trailer and its CGI, but there’s no doubt that it will draw in millions of viewers. After all, anything with the Marvel logo is an instant hit.

The trailer featured one of She-Hulk’s rivals, Titania. The excitement for her and hype for the show are fueling a bump in interest for her debut in Secret Wars #3. Hopefully, Titania’s CGI will be an upgrade compared to She-Hulk.

91. BATMAN: VENGEANCE OF BANE #1 (NEW TO THE LIST)

The world is waiting for news on the sequel to The Batman. Many fans and theorists were certain that director Matt Reeves and company left clues pointing to Bane’s arrival in the next movie. Although nothing has been said about the sequel’s villain, it is pushing collectors to grab all those Bane keys in case he makes his return to live-action.

That starts with Vengeance of Bane #1, the first appearance of the steroid-abusing criminal mastermind.

100. DOCTOR STRANGE #169 (NEW TO THE LIST)

Despite a mixed reception for Multiverse of Madness, those Doctor Strange keys are still making waves. This week, the first comic to bear his name found its way into the top 100. Don’t confuse this issue with 1974’s Doctor Strange #1.

Although DS #169 was the first issue titled after the main character, it picked up with issue #169 because it was a continuation of the previously-named Strange Tales. Still, it’s an impressive Silver Age key to own, especially with the idea that Marvel has bigger plans for Strange in the years to come.
