Posted on by

This August, Marvel’s Stormbreakers take the heroes and villains of the Marvel Universe out of their element and into fantastical new worlds in Isekai Variant Covers!

The Stormbreakers’ imagination runs wild with the concept across these new covers, pulling Marvel characters into strange settings and depicting them with striking new designs and powers. The new collection arrives just ahead of the Marvel Mangaverse 25th anniversary one-shots, five special one-shots revisiting the world of Marvel Mangaverse and introducing new manga-inspired versions of iconic Marvel heroes.

The current class of Marvel’s Stormbreakers include Alessandro Cappuccio, Netho Diaz, Simone Di Meo, Juan Frigeri, Gurihiru, Jonas Scharf, Geoff Shaw, and Luciano Vecchio. Chosen for their remarkable art, notable achievements, and boundless imagination when bringing the Marvel mythos to the page, these creators represent the future of comic book artistry and embody the raw talent to shatter the limits of visual storytelling!
