Publisher Description.  Last year, the comic industry lost one of its most exemplary storytellers, artist George Pérez.  During his illustrious career at Marvel Comics, George’s talents graced the pages of Avengers, Fantastic Four, and many more.  His contributions to some of comic books’ most inspirational sagas like Infinity Gauntlet and his seminal run on New Teen Titans will ensure his artwork will live on for generations for fans to enjoy, and later this year, Marvel Comics will celebrate that impact with a new line of variant covers.

Working with his estate, Marvel Comics has collected rare drawings from George’s archives and starting in June, these pieces will beautifully be restored, colored, and showcased on the covers of select Marvel releases.  These covers spotlight George’s legendary depictions of Marvel’s greatest heroes, giving fans an opportunity to reflect on his groundbreaking work on the genre.

The George Pérez variant covers will also be available as Virgin Covers.  Check out five of the covers now, including non-final sketches, and look for them on your favorite titles throughout the year.
