Pixar has made some of the greatest animated movies of all time, and in celebration of the studio’s 40th anniversary, some of the fans’ favorite characters have taken over a handful of the most recognizable Marvel comic covers to make them their own.
But this isn’t just a cool art campaign, but these new covers will be released to the public in a summer rollout, the dates of which you can check out below.
