Marvel is pleased to unveil the special variant covers to ULTIMATE COMICS SPIDER-MAN #1, ULTIMATE COMICS AVENGERS #1 and ULTIMATE COMICS ARMOR WARS #1 utilizing the brand-new Foilogram cover treatment! Part foil, part hologram, these reflective covers will jump at you from shelves! Watch as Spider-Man's webbing catches the light! Examine the intricate technology of Tony Stark! And, yes, that's Captain America's shield shining back at you!
"This is Marvel doing the nineties right," explained David Gabriel, Marvel Comics Senior Vice President of Sales & Circulation. "We're taking two of the most popular cover treatments of all time-foil and holograms-to create an all new kind of cover, as a ‘thank-you' to fans who've been demanding this kind of variant! Retailers and fans don't need to worry. We're only doing this on a limited basis. You won't see one on MS MARVEL #46 or LOCKJAW AND THE PET AVENGERS #4. We're using them to mark very special occasions...such as the launch of Ultimate Comics line."
As the Ultimate Comics line launches with Marvel's top characters and top creators, you can't miss the star-studded ULTIMATE COMICS SPIDER-MAN #1, ULTIMATE COMICS AVENGERS #1 and ULTIMATE COMICS ARMOR WARS #1, now with Foilogram Variant Covers! Fans, speak to your retailers now about how to secure one of these variant covers!

Well, it was just a matter of time, Marvel, you have been flooding us with these stupid variants for a few years, so I was awaiting these foil shiny covers. Cannot wait for the bagged comics with ultra rare trading card inside, or the die-cut covers. Farewell Marvel, and you wonder what is killing the hobby. Not Groundbreaking...Hobby Murdering is what it is.
