Various LGBT+ superheroes from the pages of Marvel Comics take center stage in Olivier Coipel's variant cover for Marvel's Voices: Pride #1, which is set to hit comic shops in June to celebrate Pride Month.
The House of Ideas describes Marvel's Voices: Pride #1 as its "first-ever queer-centered special," with Coipel's variant depicting "Marvel's growing tapestry of LGBTQ+ characters." The cover stars the likes of Prodigy, Iceman, America Chavez, Karma and Shatterstar, among many others.
"Since 1992's revolutionary Alpha Flight #106 proudly confirmed Northstar's sexuality, Marvel has represented LGBTQ+ identities with a wide array of characters and stories," Marvel said in a release. "Marvel's Voices: Pride #1 will continue this legacy with thrilling adventures starring Mystique and Destiny, Nico Minoru and Karolina Dean, Iceman, Daken, Karma and more. Plus, writer Allan Heinberg and artist Jim Cheung make their long-awaited return to Marvel Comics with a new chapter in the love story of their hit creations: Wiccan and Hulkling! Marvel's Voices: Pride #1 will also revisit some of Marvel's groundbreaking moments and explore the history of LGBTQ+ inclusion and storytelling at Marvel Comics."
Marvel's Voices: Pride #1 is an 88-page one-shot anthology from an all-star lineup comic book writers and artists. It serves as the latest entry in the Marvel's Voices series of one-shots, which aims to feature an array of stories from diverse creators. Previous titles include Marvel's Voices, Marvel's Voices: Indigenous Voices and Marvel's Voices: Legacy.
