Marvel’s Biggest Heroes Battle Fortnite Foes in Variant Cover Series

Some of the biggest heroes in the Marvel Universe are colliding with their Fortnite counterparts in a series of variant covers teasing the upcoming crossover event.

Fortnite X Marvel: Zero Will will see iconic Marvel heroes like Captain America, Iron Fist, Hellcat and more take on the many different characters from Epic Games’ battle royale sensation. To celebrate the upcoming five-issue crossover, Marvel released eight Fortnite variant covers for some of their ongoing series. The covers feature some monumental matchups between the two properties, including Captain America and Omega, Captain Carter and Cuddle Team Leader, Captain Marvel and Dark Comber, Ghost Rider and Raider, Iron Fist and Fade, Hellcat and Lynx, Joe Fixit and Rippley, Silk and Blaze, Spider-Man 2099 and Drifter and Venom and Big Mouth.

Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War comes from veteran Marvel writer Christos Gage (Spider-Geddon, Avengers Academy) and Epic Games’ Chief Creative Officer Donald Mustard, with art by Sergio Davila (Captain Marvel). The story will focus on the quest to discover a crystallized fragment of the Zero Point, a powerful artifact that was cast into the Marvel Universe. Spider-Man, Wolverine, Shuri and more fan-favorite characters must hunt down the fragment while holding off the malicious Imagined Order before the entire universe spirals into catastrophe.

“At its heart, the series is an adventure story, with characters from both universes coming together to go on a treasure hunt into the deepest, darkest depths of the Marvel Universe,” said Marvel Comics editor Alanna Smith. “Donald Mustard and Christos Gage have such a deep love for both Fortnite and Marvel, and Sergio Davila is turning in some absolutely unreal pages. Having the amazing Leinil Francis Yu on main covers and a killer lineup of Marvel artists on variants has been a real gift as well.”
