These are covers paying homage to many great Hip-Hop icons and some of the newer Hip-Hop artists. In a press release, Marvel's EIC Alex Alonso said
“For years, Marvel Comics and Hip-Hop culture have been engaged in an ongoing dialog. Beginning this October, we will shine a spotlight on the seamless relationship between those two unique forces.” Below are 11 of the upcoming 50 comics that will receive Hip-Hop homage covers.
