Civil War II writer Brian Michael Bendis took to Tumblr to address the delay in issue 5, which was due in August but has been pushed back to September 7, 2016, and to reveal that Marvel has extended the series to an eight-issue run.

Bendis explained that the delay happened as artist David Marquez’s wife had a baby and, naturally, he’s enjoying some daddy time.

“David [Marquez] has been handing in about a page a day for the last couple of weeks so we’re getting back on track,” Bendis said. “So much so that Marvel greenlit an eighth issue for us. I came up with a better ending but needed the pages. Very grateful that they let us do our thing.”

To sate fan appetites for new content, Bendis provided a sneak peek for an upcoming issue.
