Marvel Comics is publishing eight Captain America 80th Anniversary variant covers in July 2021 – one for each decade the Star-Spangled Avengers has been around.
Each of these will reinterpret the star of the variant cover’s issue as Captain America – Spider-Woman, Iron Man, Spider-Man, Moon Knight, Black Widow, and more.
Some surprising comic book characters have taken up the mantle of Cap in the past, which we go into with the 10 greatest heroes to wield Captain America’s shield.
Of course, these Captain America 80th Anniversary variant covers are one of several things planned by Marvel for this milestone anniversary. There is also the finale of Ta-Nehisi Coates’ Captain America run and the debut of the United States of Captain America limited series.
Here are the eight Captain America 80th Anniversary variant covers planned, along with who is drawing them, when they’re coming out, and a link to purchase them.
