Development
Development of Marvel × Shōnen Jump+ Super Collaboration began in March 2019, in the lead-up to the release of the Marvel Studios film Avengers: Endgame Cebulski noted that Shōnen Jump's focus on "action centered on characters, along with top-class creators that are supported by readers of all ages," as in series such as My Hero Academia and Dragon Ball. He further stated that the collaboration was based on "mutual affection," with the editors of Shōnen Jump+ being fans of Marvel and Cebulski being a long-time fan of manga.

Marvel × Shōnen Jump+ Super Collaboration is Marvel Comics' third collaboration with a Japanese manga publisher. In the 1970s, Marvel partnered with Kodansha to produce manga versions of its franchises, resulting in Spider-Man: The Manga, Hulk: The Manga, and X-Men: The Manga. In 2017 and 2018, the company again partnered with Kodansha on a storyboard art contest, the winner of which received a cash prize and an ongoing serialization in the manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Magazine.
