Why would those kids be pointing and laughing in the direction of the Hulk?

Banner was abused, beaten, and bullied by his father which directly contributed to the creation of his hulk persona. Hulk would smash.

.

 

[TheKaeptain]

Weird choice. Kids don't read comic books anymore, do they?

You act like comic book nerds on the internet don't need to be told not to bully.

 

[alfredofroylan]

Bloody hell that Captain America looks terrible. On the other hand look how the X-Men are left out (Remember when X-Men where the outcast of the Mervel Universe) and no FF too.

 

[Gonzalez]

So what the hell is Steve Rodgers doing there in the first place, and why is he about to break a minors hand?

 

[Tyrant Rave]

It looks like Steve is looking at the lockers instead of the bully and it makes the cover look really weird

 

[bengraven]

That Hulk picture reminds me of my favorite comic panel ever (after "not enough gun" from Preacher):

Friend dying of AIDS is attacked by gay bashers. They don't realize what they unleashed.

Safe to assume they all got #rekt?

 

[TheJollyCorner]

Coach needs to get Hulk on that D-line!

 

[Xevren]

I really like that Gamora cover <3

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

Seeing as National Bullying Prevention Month is coming up, Marvel is celebrating by releasing variant covers honoring the month featuring Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket & Groot, Captain America, & Hulk. Also, lol at the Star-Lord cover. The Inhumans will also be getting a cover, but it wasn't officially revealed, yet.

All great except this one. Art is bad and apparently the artist thinks kids who emulate black culture are the ideal representation for bullies.

I can't remember but having a dozen or more people suddenly wet their pants has got to be the most rancid thing ever.

It was a great issue - I loved David's run.

 

[Dark Ninja]

No spidey is bizarre choice

This is obviously a move to get attention from the potential mainstream. Marvel is not gonna give Sony free promotion

 

[shadyspace]

Pink polo shirt with popped collar and plaid shirt tied around the waist are hallmarks of black culture.

 

[Tobor]

Those are the covers I'd like to see. Lol.

I don't know what school you went to, but that's usually what those kids used to dress like when I was in school.

 

[shira]

I don't think bullies don't read comic books.

 

[Coffee Dog]

Rocket cover is great, but gamora cover is best.

Also, no spidey is awful awful.

 

[Kraftwerk]

All great except this one. Art is bad and apparently the artist thinks kids who emulate black culture are the ideal representation for bullies.

Huh?

 

[Ivan 3414]

.

So that kid is supposed to be Banner and Hulk is a visual personification of his rage in the viewer's eye, but not physically there in the setting.

That makes more sense. I thought it was just some random kid Hulk was patting on the head comforting.

 

[Foxy Fox 39]

interesting.

 

[Volimar]

You gotta have balls of steel to keep laughing at a kid while Hulk is comforting him.

 

[Kinyou]

The Gamora one is really sweet

The captain America one is rather awkward.

 

[anaron]

I think the Gamora one is the best

 

[enzo_gt]

I don't think these covers do enough, if anything at all.

 

[Dalek]

These are fantastic. If anything it should help bullied kids feel they're not alone and that eventually things can be better.

The artwork on all of these are great.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

Those are pretty cool

 

[Zeus Molecules]

the bully in the Cap cover is dressed like the douchest teenager on earth.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

This is obviously a move to get attention from the potential mainstream. Marvel is not gonna give Sony free promotion

Spidey is still Marvels most important and best known charachter, so they were pretty stupid to shot themself in the foot.

Also, they get tons of money from the Merchendise.

So... No.

 

[Dalek]

the bully in the Cap cover is dressed like every the douchest teenager on earth.

ftfy

 

[TwntyOneTwlv]

The kids in the Hulk one are pretty ballsy to still be laughing when Hulk is 5 feet from them.

I was gonna say that. I know I wouldn't be laughing at the Hulk.

 

[shadyspace]

Spidey is still Marvels most important and best known charachter, so they were pretty stupid to shot themself in the foot.

So... No.

To them? No.

 

[Aurongel]

Gamora one is seriously great, the rest are solid too.

 

[Nokagi]

All these are cool cept for the Cap cover. It's just unintentionally funny.

 

[Palette Swap]

The Cap one looks stupid but the rest are pretty neat.
"Who?" killed me.

 

[Choomp]

Love these, particularly the one with Gamora, I like the autumn feeling it has going on there.

 

[Velcro Fly]

someone much wiser than me put it best "with great power comes great responsibility"

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I like the Gamora one the best, but I also like the covers for the other Guardians.

 

[Smooth Operator]

Cap's probably like "You're disgracing those tags, son."

Also, reminded me of this:

I'm not crying man i swear... T_T

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Cap's probably like "You're disgracing those tags, son."

Also, reminded me of this:

That got me man

 

[Stabby McSter]

the rocket/groot cover just looks like the kid is too cool to hang out with anyone

 

[Trike]

the rocket/groot cover just looks like the kid is too cool to hang out with anyone

we should go over there and teach him a lesson

 

[Lunar15]

I like these because they're really kind of avoiding the misleading "bully" stereotype. A lot of stuff portrays a typical "bully", some large, menacing punk kid when really, a lot of bullying done by groups of otherwise normal kids who just decide to exclude and torment one kid.

 

[Neoxon]

Spidey is still Marvels most important and best known charachter, so they were pretty stupid to shot themself in the foot.

Also, they get tons of money from the Merchendise.

So... No.

Spider-Man hasn't been the face of Marvel for years. That honor now belongs to Iron Man.

 

[Zeus Molecules]

ftfy

come on man. A Pink Polo, Dog tags, a livestrong band, a flannel shirt tied around his waist. A fitted with both stickers still on it like its 2010? That kid is trying way to hard even for a teenager and he's wearing a ton of random stuff that don't go together.

Where's his Beatz and plur beads? they might as well have added those too to really get across that he is a teenager.....

 

[Neoxon]

Bloody hell that Captain America looks terrible. On the other hand look how the X-Men are left out (Remember when X-Men where the outcast of the Mervel Universe) and no FF too.

Dat MCU Promotion

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

The kids in the Hulk one are pretty ballsy to still be laughing when Hulk is 5 feet from them.

Indeed. They're about two seconds away from being turned into red mist.

 

[Neoxon]

Here's a clean version of the Gamora variant.

 

[GAMEPROFF]

Spider-Man hasn't been the face of Marvel for years. That honor now belongs to Iron Man.

In the Cinematic Universe maybe.

 

[Neoxon]

In the Cinematic Universe maybe.

And in the eyes of Marvel.

 

[Discotheque]

well spiderman already did this with that scene with the kid in amazing spiderman 2 (probably the only great scene in the film, i loved it)
