The Walt Disney Company is celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2023 and, as part of that, the studio will highlight the incredible storytellers, creators, and fans who, together, spark the magic and wonder of Disney.

Disney 100 is also a celebration of timeless storytelling and unforgettable characters that have entertained and inspired people of all ages for a century, and Marvel Comics will get in on the action and mark the occasion with a special monthly Disney 100 Variant Cover Program featuring icons such as Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and more.

The variant program, in honour of Disney100, will pay homage to Marvel's past, present, and future through the classic "What If" lens with an amazing reimagining of some classic comic book covers. 

We've already seen previous waves of these first-of-their-kind art pieces paying homage to the foundational stories of the Marvel Universe, game-changing storylines, and its' most beloved heroines. Now, you can check out the final three pieces (via Toonado.com) which put a Disney spin on some of the most pivotal and impactful moments in Marvel Comics' history.

As you can see, these variant covers Mickey Mouse and friends in key blockbuster issues like Todd McFaralane's iconic Amazing Spider-Man #300 cover, Secret Wars #1, one of the first crossover event comic series, and the mutant milestone and best-selling comic book of all time, 1991's X-Men #1.

Ever since Disney acquired Marvel Entertainment, fans have shared their hope for a crossover between the two companies and this is perhaps the best effort we've seen to date. As of now, these characters have yet to be mashed up - or meet - on screen in live-action, animation, or otherwise. 

We're sure it will happen somewhere down the line, though, and Disney+'s The Simpsons shorts are a good example of what it could look like. 

Take a closer look at these latest Marvel Comics Disney100 variant covers below.

Walt Disney created the wonderful magical Mickey Mouse.

Now all that's left of his genius is the soul killing franchise disgracing Mickey the Rat.

@DocSpock - ...People going this hard over a picture of Mickey dressed as a superhero gives me so much second-hand embarrassment. How do people go through their lives with this little emotional maturity?

We all pretended that this Disney investment in MARVEL would only benefit the fans... but honestly, we all knew this type of 💩 would inevitably appear.

@VictorAlonzo - A drawing. That is all this is. Really isn’t that deep or worth getting angry over. A drawing.

@Miiol - Exactly. I actually have a few of these already, but not any of the ones pictured here. Some are actually not that bad. But as you stated, it's just a bit of fun art, nothing at all to get all bent out of shape about.

VictorAlonzo - 7/18/2023, 6:56 AM
@Miiol - A picture is worth a thousand words. Drawings are half the reason this site exists. The other half are words.

The issue I have is not so much the art itself, but the message it relays.

PS: I am not angry. I'm seeing the fall of something that should be flourishing.

However, since rich overlords can't fix their own products, they buy and tarnish everyone else's. 🪙🪙

@MadThanos - Donald is known for his anger issues. He should have been Hulk. XD

PeterDarker121 - 7/18/2023, 10:27 AM
@Drace24 - I'm frankly more worried about his anger issues in the context of Cyclops here

But Donald Duck as Cyclops in the Secret Wars corner box is something I didn't know I needed to see until I just saw it

@Drace24 - oh no... you should watch Goofy Motor Mania.

Goofy is the perfect Hulk!

Disney just ruining everything they get their hands on. Completely ruined Lucas' creations, Star Wars, Willow and Indiana Jones, is ruining Marvel, and ruining the classic Disney animated movies with these awful and I mean awful souless live action remakes, I mean did anyone see the "Snow White" leaked pictures? LOL...

That one should be renamed Brown Sand and the Seven Antifa They/Thems.

@IronMan616 - ...It's just some pictures, man. This is not canon in Marvel comics lore or anything. Do you really need tissues over this?
IronMan616
IronMan616 - 7/18/2023, 7:17 AM
@Drace24 - I know these are just one time cover variants, any other time, especially way back when, I would've loved to have seen a Disney/Marvel reimagining, but now, just the sight and being reminded that Disney owns Marvel sickens me.

Drace24 - 7/18/2023, 7:30 AM
@IronMan616 - Uh huh. I'm really sorry that a picture of Mickey Mouse in a Spider-Man costume has rocked your entire world this much. This must have been very hard for you. I hope you can recover from this.

Disney freaking sucks. This is some cold mega-corporation bullshit where they buy and then destroy beautiful things by taking something they didn't create and making it soulless and corporate uncreative garbage.

Disney is 100th anniversary. Why are they using classic covers from the 80's and early 90s when they didn't own Marvel and had nothing to do with these amazing creators books?
