The countdown to Amazing Spider-Man #1000 continues today with the unveiling of the final batch of variant covers!
On sale September 16, the highly anticipated milestone issue, destined to take its place in comic book history, delivers both a major turning point for Joe Kelly’s acclaimed run, followed by an incredible lineup of anniversary stories celebrating Spider-Man’s legacy. The landmark issue will feature two main covers, one from each of the current run’s lead artists. Legendary artist John Romita Jr. joins acclaimed illustrator Paolo Rivera for a stunning painted cover, while modern superstar Pepe Larraz delivers a striking traditional piece. Both artists are also contributing variant covers for the issue. Larraz’s variant cover was revealed last month, while Romita Jr.’s cover, one of the artist’s signature “hero in rain” pieces, is revealed today.
Amazing Spider-Man #1000 will also feature a spectacular lineup of variant covers from some of the industry’s most celebrated artists. Revealed is a stunning new piece by Skan commemorating Local Comic Shop Day, along with an epic four-part connecting cover by Todd Nauck that will also run on Amazing Spider-Man #1001-1003. Plus, a rare archived piece by legendary Spider-Man co-creator Steve Ditko will be featured as a Hidden Gem Variant cover. Available in a newly colored version by Dean White or in its original black and white, this pinup artwork has never before been used as a cover or printed in a comic, making it a must-have for Spidey fans!
Also unveiled today is a Muppets Variant Cover by Paco Medina, part of a cover collection celebrating the 50th anniversary of “The Muppet Show.”
The previously announced anniversary story, “Tears of the Spider-Queen,” that sees iconic artists Frank Miller and Peach Momoko collaborate for the first time, is also spotlighted on duo’s newly revealed variant cover.
