Marvel celebrates 70th anniversary with some amazing covers!

Jump to Comments

When I was over at Comic Book Resources earlier I spotted a story about Marvel releasing a set of variant covers to celebrate its 70th anniversary and I was blown away by how cool they look. Marcos Martin, who I only know from Batgirl: Year One a few years back, has been tapped for the job, and the four covers are dynamite.

Of course, Marvel was still called Timely Comics 70 years ago so the titles are based around their three most notable World War II characters, the Human Torch, the Submariner and Captain America. The covers have a great WWII proaganda feel about them. Bravo. I feel like buying some war stamps and picking a fight with a bunch of Nazis.

Flame on!

Imperius Rex!

Do you think this "A" stands for France?!?

I think this may be an homage
