Last week, when Marvel Comics revealed all of Alex Ross’ “Marvel’s Timeless” covers the comics world gasped in awe. The 28 stunning variant covers are a sight to see. They’re so great in fact Marvel Comics has released a nearly 6-minute long video walking through the works from Alex Ross himself. One tidbit I couldn’t believe was that Ross has been working for the entire year on these paintings!
You can watch the video below.
Another fantastic fact is that these covers were actually a montaged mural of all the characters that will eventually make it into a mural to be featured in Marvel’s NYC offices. Ross said these characters represent the “pure id” of the human avatar to its “most fundamental component.”
