As the Walt Disney Company celebrates its 100th anniversary this year, Marvel Comics is joining the celebration with a series of variant covers where the Disney characters play the part of superheroes.
The variant program in honor of Disney100 will celebrate Marvel’s past, present, and future through the classic “What If” lens with a fantastic reimagining of Marvel’s most classic comic book covers. While the initial trio of these first-of-its-kind art pieces paid homage to the foundational stories of the Marvel Universe, the next set will celebrate some of Marvel’s more modern game changing stories! See Disney’s iconic characters immersed in pivotal moments of the Marvel mythos including the earth-shattering 90s event Infinity Gauntlet, the debut of the lineup of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes that would define the 2000s in New Avengers #1, and the transformative journey Tony Stark went on in the pages of Invincible Iron Man.
According to Marvel, there will be 12 variant covers in total available, with the first appearing on Amazing Spider-Man #17, available today (January 11).
