Marvel sent a batch of these I Am Captain America variant covers, and it's one of those instances when I really drooled over the artwork. They'll adorn variant editions of Marvel books across the line in June and July. They don't have a thing to do with what's inside the books, but it just doesn't matter. Here are some standouts.
Captain America #619 by Gerald Parel
The Mighty Thor #3 by Alex Maleev
Hulk #36 by David Mack
FF #5 by Skottie Young
Secret Avengers #14 by Mike Perkins
Moon Knight #3 by Colin Wilson
Uncanny X-Men #539 by Dave Johnson
Secret Warriors #28 by John Tyler Christopher
That last one is so damn clever
Skottie’s is perfect
I need that Skottie Young cover in my life! Can we preorder these?
Some really striking stuff here. Love the concept.
The extreme subtlness of the Secret Warriors is hands-down my favorite. It wasn’t until the 3rd or 4th scan that i noticed the reflection on her glasses. (also, freckled red-heads always win)
@Kelly I totally agree, and the glasses are an ingenius touch!
Pretty
I hope they do a collection of all these like they did for Wolverine Art Appreciation month.
@Kelly What is the reflection of?
@English The light is reflecting to form the chest star.
It’s a 5 point star lens flare.
Very cool (and excellent marketing). These need to be in USA Today a week before the movie hits.
And dont forget her upside down mask that makes the “A”
i acually want the belt buckle from the thor cover
These are crazy good. The Gerald Parel, Skottie Young, and J.T. Christopher ones are my top 3.
I LOVE this! But it makes DC look extra douchey for the whole Superman renouncing his US citizenship incident!
@Superyan …how?
These are fantastic one and all. What a great concept.
@drummerman1126: Those belt buckles are out there. I’ve seen ’em. You could probably find one online.
Wow.
Not only awesome art, but touching tributes to true heroes. Fantastic.
I find the last one astonishingly clever! Especially the star on the chest and the A on the head
I love the these covers and their everyday sitution skills! Theres a little Cap in all of us.
I want these as poster-size lithographs on my wall. Gorgeous and clever.
I have never felt this patriotic in my life.
Interesting, thanks for these showcasing these and other art work.
