Warning! Spoilers for Edge of Spider-Verse #1 by Marvel Comics
The Spider-Verse gets a lot more adorable in brand new cover art by Skottie Young, as Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, and other spider-heroes get cutified. In the new variant cover for Edge of Spider-Verse #1 from Marvel Comics, Young gives the multiversal web-slingers a cute baby variant, which imagines the heroes as pint-sized versions of their usual selves. The art is a perfect marriage of characters and artists, as fans of Young and the Spider-Verse should dig the cover.
The new Edge of Spider-Verse series from Marvel Comics will set the stage for the final chapter of the Spider-Verse saga, as the miniseries will predate the End of Spider-Verse later this year. The new comic from Dan Slott, Alex Segura, Mark Bagley, Karla Pacheco, and more talented creators will feature fan-favorite spider-heroes like Spider-Gwen, Miles Morales, and Spider-Man: Noir. In addition, Edge of Spider-Verse will also introduce several new web-slingers, including a new Black Cat spider-hero, Web-Weaver, and a dinosaur Spider-Man called Spider-Rex.
Cartoonist Skottie Young shared his variant cover art from Edge of Spider-Verse #1, featuring several web-slingers in his trademark baby style. The cute spider-heroes include Miles Morales, Spider-Gwen, Peter Parker, Spider-Man: Noir, and Spider-Man 2099. While young’s choice of heroes is five of the most popular Spider-Verse characters, it also highlights the spider-heroes that will appear in the upcoming Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Part One, where Morales and Gwen will take on Spider-Man 2099.
Skottie Young is one of the most versatile creators in comics. While he might be best known for his adorable baby variant cover arts for Marvel Comics, he’s also penned some incredible stories for the publisher and elsewhere. For example, Strange Academy with artist Humberto Ramos remains one of Marvel’s consistently great books. Meanwhile, Middlewest for Image Comics is a magical and emotional story starring a young boy and his Vulpine friend. Whether he’s writing compelling stories or using his background as a cartoonist to draw cute versions of Marvel heroes, like Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen, Young remains one of the industry’s most talented writers/artists.
Edge of Spider-Verse #1 from Marvel Comics will come with various variants, as Josemaria Casanovas, Edgar Delgado, Humberto Ramos, and In-Hyuk Lee are the artists who will provide their own cover art for the series. The cute Skottie Young variant cover for Edge of Spider-Verse #1 will be available for the regular price of the issue and can be ordered at your local comic book store now. The Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen-starring cover will be released on August 3rd, 2022.
