March is Women’s History Month, and in 2016 Marvel plans on celebrating the tradition by releasing a series of variant covers featuring some of the company’s most prolific female heroes. These covers feature art by a variety of progressive and unique talents such as Tula Lotay, Annie Wu, Jamie McKelvie, and Emanuela Lupacchino.
As Comics Alliance astutely noted, the list of commissioned artists includes female artists and male artists known for treating female characters with respect. AKA, there’s no Frank Cho.
