Marvel celebrates Black History Month 2025 with variant covers

January 9, 2025 by Gary Collinson

Marvel Comics is putting the spotlight on the black superheroes of the Marvel Universe next month with a series of Black History Month Variant Covers. Set to release across various titles throughout February, the covers will showcase:

  • Black Panther, legendary super hero and King of Wakanda. T’Challa can currently be seen taking charge in Jed MacKay and Farid Karami’s hit run of Avengers.
  • Captain America (Sam Wilson), whose latest high-flying adventure kicked off last week in Evan Narcisse, Greg Pak, and Eder Messias’ Sam Wilson: Captain America.
  • Frenzy, the former villain who now lends her super strength to the government’s officially sanctioned mutant team in Mark Russell and Robert Quinn’s X-Factor.
  • Gold Tiger, a mysterious new Wakandan hero who debuted this week in Steve Foxe and Ivan Fiorelli’s New Champions!
  • Power Man, or rather a version of him from the far future! Be there when this future Luke Cage and his awe-inspiring array of powers arrives in the modern Marvel Universe next month in Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Bernard Chang’s Power Man: Timeless!
  • Spider-Man (Miles Morales), Brooklyn’s own web-slinger who’s currently enjoying a celebrated run by Cody Ziglar, Luigi Zagaria and more where he’ll soon face off against Deadpool for the first time in the upcoming “Pools of Blood” crossover!
  • Storm, Earth’s Mightiest Mutant and one of Marvel’s most groundbreaking super heroes. Celebrating 50 years of storytelling this year, the iconic X-Men leader currently stars in both Avengers and her own solo ongoing series by Murewa Ayodele and Lucas Werneck.
  • Temper, one of the X-Men’s most promising students. The young temperature-controlling mutant was recently promoted to the flagship X-Men team, following Cyclops’ leadership in Jed MacKay and Ryan Stegman’s X-Men.
