CIVIL WAR II Variant Covers Put You Ringside
Since we are all up to our eyeballs in Captain America: Civil War news and clips and interviews and reviews, I thought it was time for something entirely different: variant covers for Marvel’s upcoming event series Civil War II. One of these showed up in my twitter feed, and some sleuthing turned up a whole series over at Comicosity. Each issue of the big event series will also have a variant cover by Michael Cho, and the variants will also be available as lithographs.
Marvel Editor in Chief Axel Alonso says of the series, “If anyone proves that ‘less is more,’ it’s Michael Cho. Rest assured that not a single brushstroke will be wasted in any of his propaganda-influenced Civil War II covers, each of them a call to arms. Who’s side are you on?”
Civil War II involves an Inhuman who is able to predict future crimes. Captain Marvel leads a faction of superheroes who want to use this power, Iron Man leads the faction opposing the use of "predictive justice." There will be a total of seven issues written by Brian Michael Bendis with art by David Marquez and colors by Justin Ponsor. Check out the first four awesome, boxing inspired variant covers below.
