Marvel Comics’ parent company, Walt Disney is marking its 100th-anniversary of incredible storytellers, creators, and fans who, together, spark the magic and wonder of Disney in 2023. As part of the Disney100 celebration, a journey promising to bring new experiences with beloved characters around the globe, Marvel Comics will help mark the occasion with a special monthly DISNEY100 Variant Covers featuring Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy, and the rest of the gang.
The variant program, in honor of Disney100, will celebrate Marvel’s past, present, and future through the classic “What If” lens with fantastic reimaginings of Marvel’s most classic comic book covers.
The variant series consisting of 12 covers in total, will be hitting stands each month of 2023 at local comic book shops and be found on select upcoming issues of Amazing Spider-Man starting with AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #17 on January 11.
The initial trio of these first-of-its-kind art pieces paid homage to the foundational stories of the Marvel Universe, while the next set will celebrate some of Marvel’s more modern “game-changing” stories!
Disney’s iconic characters find themselves immersed in pivotal moments of the Marvel mythos including the earth-shattering 90s event Infinity Gauntlet, the debut of the lineup of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes that defined the 2000s in New Avengers #1, and the transformative journey Tony Stark went on in the pages of Invincible Iron Man.
