The first novel is set to launch this summer.

April 23, 2021

Asmodee Entertainment has announced that Aconyte, Asmodee’s fiction imprint, has partnered with Atomic Mass Games to publish a new trilogy of Marvel novels inspired by the tabletop miniatures game, Crisis Protocol, starting this summer.

“One of the cornerstones of Marvel: Crisis Protocol is how it allows players the opportunity to create their own stories on the tabletop within the Marvel Universe,” says Will Schick, product development head, Atomic Mass. “While super-powered, cinematic battles are part of the fun, it’s the narrative that emerges as players control their squads of iconic Marvel characters to complete their objectives that truly sets the game apart from any other tabletop game of its kind. With this in mind, we are extremely excited to be partnering with Aconyte to bring players and fans of the Marvel Universe all-new stories set amid the climatic confrontations of ‘Crisis Protocol.’”

Kicking off with

Target: Kree,

the adventure novel sees Iron Man and Ms. Marvel clash with

members of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Written by multiple author and comics editor Stuart Moore,

Target: Kree

will be published in the U.S. and Canada on July 6 and on Sept. 16 in the U.K. This first book in the trilogy will be available in trade paperback and e-book formats, with an audiobook version expected to follow. A variety of translated editions are being planned with Aconyte’s European publishing partners.
