Fear of a Black Comic Creator: Marvel's Hip-Hop Covers

Today, Marvel Comics takes a step forward toward encouraging more diversity among the voices which present the stories of our favorite heroes and villains on the paneled page...by mining black culture for comic book covers. ....Those wacky marvelites.

Expression and art form merge between Marvel Comics and the world of hip-hop with a unique line of HIP-HOP Variants covers inspired by some of the most iconic and well received hip-hop and rap albums of all time.
Accompanying each all-new #1 from Marvel Comics coming this fall, fans will get the chance to purchase their own Marvel Comics variant cover featuring their favorite Marvel characters paying homage to some of the most well-known and vocal musical artists over the past couple of years.
