Marvel are usually rivals with DC, but this time they're not

Because this time the DC stands for "Disco Covers!"

In light of the new, upcoming, four-part Dazzler mini-series, Marvel have put together a slew of cross-promotional variant covers



Some seem to be embracing the style choices open more than others, so I've just picked my favourites. You can see a complete collection here

AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #55 DISCO DAZZLER VARIANT COVER BY LUCIANO VECCHIO

And, of course, to see Ben Grimm actually wear that outfit, more or less, in an in-continuity story (as well as seeing Warren Worthington with a shirt on... more or less) see here

How rude to out-gay the Pride covers during Pride month tut tut.

I was just thinking how many of these looked more like Pride covers...

Though the Spider-Man cover looks like something he'd invent to deal with a laser-based foe in a moment of sleep-deprived desperation.

Spidey doing an after school special on the importance of wearing reflective clothing while walking at dark.

"You may not have my reflexes to keep safe, but you can always be reflective!"

I'm pretty sure that kind of reflective armour shows up in that alternate universe spideys episode of the 90's Animated series.

Ooh, that Avengers cover though.

It’s just... so peak...

There’s something oddly hilarious to me about Iron Man wearing a suit over his suit. Everybody else is dressed for the occasion with special clothes and part of his whole deal is making specialised suits depending on what he’s going up against, but no, this time just puts clothes over his armour. For what it’s worth he surprisingly makes it work.

1: Thor on the Avengers cover looks far better than the Immortal Thor one.

2: That is a freakin' sweet hat T'Challa's rockin'.

I dunno, I like how his scalemail becomes disco ball plating.

It's mostly the haircut and beard I'm focusing on. They just seem to work better on the Avengers one.

Yeah, the Farrah hair is hard to beat. (Though Ororo managed to!)

Reminds me of The League of Super Groovy Crimefighters, which I now see is on Kindle Unlimited

Additional:
Wanda's on her cover there isn't too shabby either, but the Avengers one look like some of her actual costumes anyway.
Someone read the e-mail and felt lazy...

(And actually looks a lot better than some of her other outfits over the years.

Talking about Darker than Scarlet, obvs.)

The best part is that at some point, some developer is going to use that Spider-man costume in a videogame.

As they rightly should!

Only if it's accompanied by constant disco music.

The DD in Daredevil's chest hair is an amazing choice, fabulous, A+++.

Now I want a dream sequence/concussion hallucination reflecting this on the TV series!

It’s nice to see Storm get to have a Category 4 hair texture.

I haven't smiled so much in ages.

I especially love how most of the characters on Hulk's cover are wearing canon costumes.

Props to Marguerite Sauvage for solving the problem of Strange's current outfit BEING his Disco-era one by concentrating on Clea and the groovy lights instead!
