Marvel Comics is paying tribute to the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) with a series of Marvel Studios Variant Covers, which will hit comics in September.
The variants are straight out of Marvel Studios: The Art of Ryan Meinerding, an art book including the work of Marvel Studios’ Head of Visual Development Ryan Meinerding. And if that isn’t enough cyclical sentences for you, here’s a straightforward one: the book will hit stores on October 1.
The variants, however, will hit well before that, rolling out throughout September. Per a release from Marvel, the book “covers the breadth of Meinerding’s work on the Marvel Cinematic Universe with illustrations, sketches, character designs, insights, and much more. The variant covers pull from Meinerding’s long career with Marvel Studios, stretching all the way back to the early days of Iron Man (2008).”
Thank you for specifying it was the 2008 Iron Man, I would have been confused otherwise.
