Marvel has unveiled the first of its Avengers: Twilight Lightning Bolt Variant Cover series paying homage to “a visionary of dark comic book storytelling.” The matching covers, which will also be available as virgin variant covers, include Miller’s take on the star-spangled Avenger and new pieces by Phil Noto (X-Men, Star Wars), Sara Pichelli (Miles Morales: Spider-Man, Scarlet Witch), Carmen Carnero (Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty, Captain Marvel), Ben Su (Shang-Chi, Punisher), and Declan Shalvey (Blade, Alien).
“Steve is the perfect character with which to see a changed futuresince he’s been through that experience before coming out of WW2. Hisethics and morals and outlook have a consistency to them, so seeing howhe reacts to a changed America is always interesting, to me at least,” Zdarsky told ComicBook in an interview. “And this future America is seemingly perfect, so Steve has toquestion whether or not to upset what his fellow Americans arecomfortable with in pursuit of the truth.” (See an exclusive sneak peek at Avengers: Twilight here, featuring a fallen Spider-Man.)
Per the official synopsis: “In a gleaming new world ofprosperity, Captain America is no more. But Steve Rogers still exists,floating through an America where freedom is an illusion, where The Avengers are strangers and his friends are long dead. But is the Dream?How do you assemble Avengers in a world that doesn’t want them?”
