MARVEL’S STORMBREAKERS BRING BACK THE ’90S IN NEW X-MEN TRADING CARD VARIANT COVERS
SHADOWS OF TOMORROW, the next era of X-Men storytelling, begins in January. To celebrate this exciting turning point for mutantkind, Marvel’s Stormbreakers spotlight some of the X-Books’ biggest stars in new X-MEN TRADING CARD VARIANT COVERS.
Showcased in trading card-style frames, the covers harken back to the ‘90s when the X-Men dominated pop culture on comic stands, television, and in iconic trading card sets. Today, X-Men storytelling is more impactful than ever as the aftermath of Age of Revelation arms the X-Men with knowledge to prevent one of the darkest futures in Marvel Comics history. It’s time to embrace bold action, strengthen alliances, and empower the next generation! United, the X-Men will alter mutantkind’s fate and ensure their dream isn’t darkened by the SHADOWS OF TOMORROW! The X-MEN TRADING CARD VARIANT COVERS will be featured on select titles throughout January, including highly anticipated SHADOWS OF TOMORROW series launches like ROGUE and INGLORIOUS X-FORCE.
The current class of Marvel’s Stormbreakers include Alessandro Cappuccio (Ultimate Wolverine), Netho Diaz (X-Men), Simone Di Meo (X-Men of Apocalypse), Juan Frigeri (Ultimates), Gurihiru (Jeff the Land Shark), Jonas Scharf (Ultimate Spider-Man: Incursion, Ultimate Endgame), Geoff Shaw (Red Hulk, Wade Wilson: Deadpool), and Luciano Vecchio (Uncanny X-Men). Chosen for their remarkable art, notable achievements, and boundless imagination when bringing the Marvel mythos to the page, these creators represent the future of comic book artistry and embody the raw talent to shatter the limits of visual storytelling!
First launched in 2020, Marvel’s Stormbreakers evolved from Marvel’s Young Guns program. Over the past 15 years, Marvel selected and recognized 36 up-and-coming artists who went on to draw some of Marvel’s greatest events, iconic series, and beyond, solidifying their place as luminaries in the industry including Steve McNiven, Jim Cheung, Sara Pichelli, Ryan Stegman, and more.
Check out all eight X-MEN TRADING CARD VARIANT COVERS and preorder them at your local comic shop today.
