I’m using the visual of a very classic collected edition that Marvel released way back in 1976 called “Bring On The Bad Guys”. The book featured the origins of some of their most sinister villains and was the companion to both “Origins Of Marvel Comics” and “Son Of Origins”. I’m certain that all have been reprinted and can be purchased today but I digress. This was used to laud the latest batch of variant covers that will be hitting the monthly issues listed below.
The Press Release:
Just as the “Acts of Evil” have taken over the Marvel Annuals for the summer, we couldn’t forget to spotlight our terrifying villains during Marvel’s 80th anniversary!

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Now before you freak about the incomplete images please know that the press only received “6” of them but should more surface I will add them to this post and move the images around to their title up above. The variant covers are something that I greatly enjoy sharing with you but I don’t add them to my own collection based on the amount of things I already collect. What about you readers though? These are perfect if you only collect a handful of titles. Chime in down below and I will see you next time.
