Marvel has released its book schedule for the first five months of 2005, and it includes 92 titles in hardcover and paper combined. It includes one Marvel Masterworks per month (ten SKUS in all, including the variant dustjacket editions), eight Marvel Age titles, five Marvel Knights collections, seven Essentials titles, and four Ultimate collections.
Marvel's plans also include three Elektra titles in January to capitalize on interest in the character due to the release of the Elektra film (see 'Marvel Updates Movie Schedule').
Four titles in the Visionaries line were announced, including two $29.99 hardcovers with material from key creators in Marvel history. Marvel Visionaries: Stan Lee, is planned for January, and Marvel Visionaries: Steve Ditko for April.
