A Shattered Homage to Marvel Comics #1 for #1000

Published Tue, 23 Jul 2019 12:30:54 -0500

I'm probably going to talk a lot about the upcoming Marvel Comics #1000 on Friday. But for now, I noted that while the comic book has many a cover, including ones celebrating all the decades since Marvel Comics #1, we haven't seen one from the thirties specifically yet.

Well, Diamond Galleries have a retailer variant created with Shattered Comics (Matt DiMasi) that recreate that original Marvel Comics #1 cover by Frank R Paul, a founding father of science fiction – the only one to do that so far – in a shattered mosaic form…

$30 and it's yours... here's how the original art looks in the sun.
