Variant Covers Celebrate 300 Marvel Masterworks image image image In the spring of 2021, Marvel Comics reaches 300 Marvel Masterworks editions. To celebrate the milestone, the publisher will sell a selection of variant covers by artist Ema Lupacchino, beginning in February 2021. The designs of the variants were inspired by artwork on Marvel Masterworks hardcovers, featuring the heroes in a golden frame over a marble-like background. The variants will be available on Amazing Spider-Man #59, Captain Marvel #26, and Daredevil #27. Marvel Masterworks began in 1987 as a series of trade paperbacks and hardcovers that reprint important stories. It began with Silver Age reprints and has expanded into Golden Age issues from Timely and Atlas, as well as Bronze Age titles. The collected editions are packaged with classic covers inside a silver border. “For over 30 years, the Marvels Masterworks line has collected the most seminal stories in Marvel history. Across 300 volumes, the iconic tales of Spider-Man, the Avengers, the X-Men, the Fantastic Four and more have been presented in these stunning hardcover collections,” publisher’s official release reads. “Celebrate this grand tradition by adding these one-of-a-kind Masterworks covers to your collection starting in February. Feast your eyes on the first three covers below, featuring Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Captain Marvel, and stay tuned for more Masterworks variant cover reveals in the coming weeks!”
