Marvel Comics has revealed a new variant cover series paired with Bring on the Bad Guys, a seven-part saga celebrating the baddest of the bad. It all starts with Bring on the Bad Guys: Doom on June 18, written by Marc Guggenheim and illustrated by Stefano Raffaele. From there, every two weeks Guggenheim will look at a new villain, from Loki to Mephisto.
“This is a real labor of love for all involved,” Guggenheim told Newsarama in a recent interview and first look. “On one level, we’re just trying to tell a cool, self-contained Marvel Universe story that’s worthy of being considered an ‘event.’ At the same time, we’ve worked in a lot of Easter eggs and visual callbacks to the stories that appear in the original Bring on the Bad Guys.”
Check out all six covers below.
