With Deadpool on the loose, no one is safe from his insane pranks...especially Wolverine! This July, the Stormbreakers (a group of the publisher's up-and-coming artists) celebrate the Merc With A Mouth and The Best There Is in the latest batch of "Stormbreakers Variant Covers."
Arriving just as Deadpool & Wolverine hits theaters, these covers spotlight why Deadpool and Wolverine are the ultimate - and most hilarious - superhero team-up in comic books.
Every month, Marvel's Stormbreakers bring their incredible talents to our favourite comic series and characters and flex their skills with exciting themed variant cover collections. The current group of artists includes Elena Casagrande, Nic Klein, Jan Bazaldua, Chris Allen, Martin Coccolo, Lucas Werneck, Federico Vicentini and C.F. Villa.
Each of these artists embodies the raw talent and creative potential to shatter the limits of visual storytelling in comics today. As the next evolution of the groundbreaking "Marvel's Young Guns" program, "Marvel's Stormbreakers" continues the tradition of spotlighting and elevating these powerful artists to showcase their abilities, artwork and prominence in the world of comic books.
Marvel Comics is launching a few titles revolving around these two this summer, including Rob Liefeld's final Deadpool comic and Deadpool & Wolverine: WWIII.
The variants will adorn Deadpool #4, Wolverine: Deep Cut #1, Avengers #16, X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse #3, X-Men: Blood Hunt - Laura Kinney The Wolverine #1, Deadpool & Wolverine: WWIII #3, Hellverine #3, and X-Force #1.
While these covers aren't based on their MCU Variants (Marvel Comics has already shared a first look at those), they do a great job of highlighting the unique dynamic between these characters on the page...
