Pride Variant Covers
Pride kicks off for Marvel with X-Men: The Wedding Special #1. While the main story focuses on the wedding of Mystique and Destiny, it also focuses on other Marvel heroes. For example, Betsy Braddock and Rachel Summers continue to kick some but together in a short action-fueled story. Plus, Wolverine and Rogue and Gambit get their own short tales as well. However, the anthology also kicks off the release of the Pride variant covers.
Marvel’s Pride variants come from two of the biggest talents in the business. Artists Betsy Cola and Davi Go bring eight gorgeous variants to Marvel’s hottest titles. Each variant celebrates one of Marvel’s LGBTQIA+ heroes. This includes members of the Avengers, the X-Men, and more. For each piece, Cola and Go paired up the LGBTQIA+ heroes with a fellow Marvel hero for an astounding image.
