Publisher Description. From the streets to the stars, who’s the deadliest killer of all? Bullseye, of course! After being hired by a cosmic figure obsessed with Death (guess who?) to kill a target of universal importance, Bullseye runs into trouble when Jack of Hearts, Nova, and Star-Lord converge to stop him! This unlikely foursome collides above the streets of New York City this September in the pages of Marvel Gold ’76 #1 from writer Stephanie Phillips (Daredevil) and artist Madibek Musabekov (Star Wars: Shadow of Maul).
While all four of these characters have become Marvel icons since originally debuting in 1976, their paths have seldom crossed over, save for Nova and Star-Lord’s long shared history as Guardians of the Galaxy. Bullseye, first introduced in the pages of Daredevil #131 (1964 series) by Marv Wolfman and Bob Brown, never misses an opportunity to take on a contract or show off his skills. How will the man who always hits his mark fare when facing cosmic-level powerhouses like Jack of Hearts, Nova, and Star-Lord? Find out in this madcap one-shot serving as a celebration of these fan-favorite characters, all celebrating their 50th anniversaries in 2026.
