Spider-Man, Thor & Hulk Celebrate Huge Anniversary with Amazing Covers
Three larger-than-life Marvel Comics characters are hitting major milestones in 2022, and Spider-Man, Thor, and Hulk each dominate the special variant covers intended to celebrate their individual 60-year anniversaries. This trio of heroes are given center stage by J. Scott Campbell, a celebrated artist known for his work on various covers, including multiple issues of The Amazing Spider-Man, Venom, Black Cat, Thor, and others. As some of the most recognized superheroes in the world, the release of these covers in May and August is certain to grab attention.
Spider-Man has been slinging his webs for 60 years, becoming a fan favorite after making his debut in Amazing Fantasy #15 by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko in 1962 and Marvel is planning a big celebration in his honor. His story has taken fans through an emotional roller coaster, ranging from his failure to save Gwen Stacy to battling clones of himself to being buried alive to his controversial deal with Mephisto to erase his marriage from existence in exchange for saving Aunt May's life. Through it all, he has remained one of Marvel’s most humorous characters and also one whose sense of responsibility weighs heavily upon him. Hulk has also been through a lot since his debut in The Incredible Hulk #1 by Lee and Jack Kirby, being banished to a gladiator planet, ruling a post-apocalyptic world, and having various levels of control in his eternal struggle with his alter ego Bruce Banner. On the other hand, Thor was justifiably deemed unworthy by Mjolnir, survived Ragnorok, and lost an eye, proving quite resilient for a character who debuted 60 years ago in Journey into Mystery #83 by Lee and Kirby.
