Belligerent Marvel Reveals Moar War of the Realms Variants

Published Fri, 01 Mar 2019 12:43:57 -0600

Marvel has heard the complaints levied by Brian Hibbs about their abuse of the variant cover gimmick (amongst other things) to extract more money from existing readers rather than trying to sell actual comics to new readers, and they have responded with… more variants!

Hey, Marvel is nothing if not consistent, right?

First up, two variants for Journey Into Mystery…, by Joe Quinines, Matthew Wilson, and Rahzzah.

New York, NY—March 1, 2019—On April 10th, the McElroy Brothers (joined by interior artist Andre Lima Araujo and cover artist Valerio Schiti) dive into War of the Realms with JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY, a five-issue limited series that takes Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Hawkeye (Kate Bishop), Wonder Man, and Balder The Brave on an epic quest to save Thor!

Today, Marvel is excited to release two new variant covers for WAR OF THE REALMS: JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY by superstar artists Joe Quinones & Matthew Wilson (issue #1) and Rahzzah (Issue #2).
