But first he revealed that “for those of you who have been paying attention since last June, we had we had Jay And Silent bobbing around in the Marvel Universe in the 616 Day Special that we did.

THEY’RE NOT EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE IN THIS UNIVERSE!
Capped, tan American Jay and friendly neighborhood wider-man Silent Bob make a quick stop in the Marvel Universe! But when Doctor Doom decrees these Jersey guys must die, the Fantastic Four, the Avengers, the X-Men and a whole hoary host of heroes must team up on a joint mission to save the dimwitted duo from a lethal case of super hero overload!
“It’s real! This summer, Jay & Silent Bob team up with Marvel’s heroes in JAY & SILENT BOB: JAYS OF FUTURE PAST, a one-shot written by Kevin Smith and drawn by Giuseppe Camuncoli. A lifelong True Believer, Kevin Smith has contributed to the Marvel legacy with his own Marvel Comics projects, frequent Marvel references in his film work and fun cameos on the comic page. Now, the moment he and fans have waited decades for finally arrives as his most beloved creations, JAY & SILENT BOB, enter the Marvel Universe in a multiverse-shattering one-shot! The duo will go on a wild trip across the Marvel mythos, teaming up with its greatest heroes against Doctor Doom, in an adventure that blends their iconic slacker humor with super hero storytelling!”
On the lead up to this historic event, Smith shared, “From the moment in Mallrats when they made the very first reference to Wolverine in cinema history, I’ve always wanted Jay and Silent Bob to meet their Marvel heroes in a comic book crossover – so much so that I pitched it to Stan the Man himself the day he shot his cameo in the movie way back in 1995. Thirty years later, JAYS OF FUTURE PAST represents both a love letter to the magic and mayhem of Marvel as well as giggle-inducing proof that our childhood dreams can still come true, even at age 55.” With a cover by Marco Checchetto…
