ULTIMATE TITLES IN JULY: Marvel Comics has revealed synopses and cover art for its Ultimate titles in July.
* Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checchetto continue to spin the story in Ultimate Spider-Man #7. The start of an all-new arc, the issue picks up after Green Goblin and Spider-Man's intense battle with the Kingpin, where they learned they aren't as ready to reshape the world as they hoped. Harry and Peter get to work, while Ben and Jonah work on "the truth." And problems for their resistance arise when Tony Stark checks in on Peter.
* Black Panther undertakes a daring trial to face Ra and Khonshu in Bryan Hill and guest artist Carlos Nieto's Ultimate Black Panther #6. While T'Challa has sought to grow his power, so too have the forces of Moon Knight... And with access to a unique new resource, Ra and Khonshu are stronger than ever. How will Wakanda stand in its resistance against the kings of the Upper and Lower Kingdoms? And is T'Challa prepared to bear the consequences of tapping into such dangerous wells of power?
* More shocking secrets of the Ultimate Universe are revealed in Deniz Camp and Juan Friger's Ultimates #2. Captain America reckons with the Maker's dismantling of nations...by visiting the White House. Cap's arrival leads to a massive brawl between the villain known as Midas and this young band of freedom fighters, but Midas has been holding a superhuman hostage as a power source. Plus, discover the dark history of what used to be the United States on Earth-6160.
*The Ultimate Universe's new generation of mutants face their first enemy in Peach Momoko's Ultimate X-Men #5. Maystorm isn't the only mutant with electric powers -- and Noriko Ashida, a.k.a. Surge, is here to make sure she knows it. A fun summer festival turns haunted and dangerous as spirits and surges collide. And, the shadow who has been haunting Armor finally reveals his true face.

WHAT IF DONALD: On July 31, Marvel and Disney honor the 90th anniversary of Donald Duck and the 50th anniversary of Wolverine with an unexpected mashup adventure‚ Marvel & Disney: What If....? Donald Duck Became Wolverine #1, from writer Luca Barbieri and artist Giada Perissinotto.
"Donald Duck and Wolverine are two characters that seem almost impossible to make coexist, but in fact they possess very similar personality: they are both hot-tempered and unlucky, but in adversity they do not lose heart and always show that they have a big heart! Once this point was focused, writing the story turned out to be easy and fun!"
"I always thought Wolverine's sideburns only looked good on Uncle Scrooge, but when I drew them on Donald Duck I realized they fit him perfectly too," Perissinotto said. "Those pointy head tufts and thick sideburns go well with his shaggy being. I had so much fun adapting Wolverine's hair to Donald Duck that I would do him like this all the time now!"
Covers are by Perissinotto, Ron Lim, Peach Momoko and Phil Noto.
FRIDAY BOX OFFICE: Civil War topped the box office in its opening day on Friday pulling in $10.8 million. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was second with $4.0 million, pushing its total to $146.4 millin. Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire was third with $1.4 million, pushing its total to $92.5 million.
