This summer, the Marvel Universe is torn asunder by a cosmic collison of evil in QUEEN IN BLACK, a five-issue event series by writer Al Ewing (Venom) and artist Iban Coello (Fantastic Four)!

Announced last month, the debut issue will be the latest Marvel Comics launch sold in new True Believers Blind Bags, following Ultimate Endgame #1 earlier this year and Daredevil #1, hitting stands next week. And for the first time, QUEEN IN BLACK #1 TRUE BELIEVERS BLIND BAGS will only contain exclusive variant covers not available for regular ordering.

Queen In Black News:

Today, Marvel Comics reveals new QUEEN IN BLACK #1 variant covers, including regular orderable covers by J. Scott Campbell, Jeehyung Lee, John Romita Jr., and Pat Gleason, the latest in his hit “Webhead” variant covers.

Teasing the event, Ewing shared:

“The only threat bigger than one evil God is two of them fighting each other, with Earth caught right in the middle. As an old-school ‘60s Marvel villain, Hela’s a great match-up against the newer school of Knull, especially given the steps she’s been taking to get onto his level.

There can only be one winner – but whoever wins, it’s the worst news possible for our heroes.”

Also revealed today are new True Believers Blind Bag exclusive covers by Artgerm and Gurihiru. Other blind bag exclusives include a virgin edition of Jeehyung Lee’s variant cover, an alternate “Webhead” cover by Pat Gleason that will be revealed at a later date, and the previously shown promotional image by David Marquez, which will be presented as two connecting covers.

QUEEN IN BLACK #1 TRUE BELIEVERS BLIND BAGS will only contain exclusive variant covers not available for regular ordering. The main cover and regular open-to-order variant covers cannot be found in True Believers Blind Bags, making it the most exciting and rewarding True Believers Blind Bag experience yet!

In addition to those listed, fans can once again look forward to super rare exclusive covers by surprise contributors, including hand-drawn, one-of-a-kind sketch covers.
