Hellfire Gala returns once again and like last year will be a night overflowing with action, drama, and FASHION, but this time around, mutants won’t be the only ones slaying the Green Carpet as the X-Men will be joined by other heroes of the Marvel Universe getting into the fun with extremely stylish looks of their own, all designed by some of the industry’s most inventive artists!
Superstar Russell Dauterman returns to lead the campaign to elevate Marvel Comics fashion like never before alongside artists Carmen Carnero, Iban Coello, Chris Bachalo, Jen Bartel, Mateus Manhanini, Mahmud Asrar, Miguel Mercado, Meghan Hetrick, InHyuk Lee, and Eric D’Urso. Combining real fashion trends with classic superhero aesthetics, mutant power signatures, and more, these bold takes on your favorite Marvel characters can be seen in both the upcoming X-MEN: HELLFIRE GALA one-shot and on a series of 20 gorgeous variant covers throughout June!
In a press release from Marvel, artist Russell Dauterman said about this year’s gala:
“I’m thrilled to be back designing costumes for the mutants! And this year we’re expanding to include more of the Marvel Universe — I jumped at the chance to design one of my favorite characters, the Scarlet Witch! I’m lucky to be in such stellar company, surrounded by the other artists working on this project. I’ve been excited every time new art shows up in my inbox, and can’t wait for everyone to see!”
