Including an homage to the original 1976 treasury… DC on Wednesday revealed a whole new wave of Superman/Spider-Man #1 variant covers, and I gotta say, I dig ’em even more than the first round. Why? Because there are plenty of Bronze Age homages, including a riff on the cover of the classic 1976 Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man treasury, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary (and which was released as a Facsimile Edition in January). Not only that, there will be a pin-up by Jorge Jimenez that pays tribute to the original’s back cover by Ross Andru and co.: Dig these variants: — A few thoughts: — Superman/Spider-Man #1 is due March 25. Marvel’s Spider-Man/Superman #1 follows April 15. — The issue’s main story — “Truth, Justice, and Great Responsibility” — is by Mark Waid and Jiménez, and there will be a slew of back-ups. — There are more variants to come, by artists including Arthur Adams, Olivier Coipel, and Joshua Middleton. Marvel unveiled a second wave of its own for Spider-Man/Superman #1 last week. — MORE — SUPERMAN/SPIDER-MAN #1 — by MARK WAID and JORGE JIMENEZ — Gets Its March Publishing Date.
