Marvel Comics has been the creative home of some of the most famous and beloved comics for decades. Their stories are a wondrous feast for readers. But…their covers. Their covers are a beautiful front door into a magical wonderland. The artists presented within these pages are nothing short of glorious, representing Marvel’s very best from the late 1960s to the late 1980s.
A new printing of a long out-of-print Artist’s Edition! Marvel Comics is the home of some of the greatest and most iconic cover images in the history of comics. This unique Artist’s Edition features an amazing “best of” selection of gorgeous covers by a veritable who’s who of the medium.
An Artist’s Edition presents complete stories and individual pages with each image scanned from the actual original art. While appearing to be in black and white, each page has been scanned in color to mimic as closely as possible the experience of viewing the actual original art—for example, you are able to clearly see paste-overs, blue pencils in the art, editorial notes, and art corrections. Each page is printed at the same size as drawn, and the paper selected is as close as possible to the original art board.

Este Marvel Covers, una rara avis dentro del catálogo de Artist's Editions de IDW, resulta muy satisfactorio por la enorme calidad de los autores seleccionados y la gran diversidad de épocas representadas. El artista con mayor número de aportaciones es Gil Kane, incluyendo la propia portada del tomo, seguido de Arthur Adams, John Byrne, John Romita Sr. y Frank Miller, con 12 ilustraciones cada uno. El resto del listado es de quitar el hipo: Kirby, Colan, Buscema, Ploog, Starlin, Steranko, Wrightson, Nowlan, Craig Russell... Entre mis favoritos: Barry Windsor-Smith, Michael Golden y Bill Sienkiewicz. Como curiosidad, se incluye un desplegable con dos dibujos promocionales de Lobezno (Art Adams) y el Capitán América (Mike Zeck). Por poner algún pero, hay algunas portadas que ya aparecieron en anteriores Artist's Editions, en concreto del Thor de Walter Simonson, Los 4 Fantásticos de Byrne y Spiderman de Romita.
