Remember a couple of years ago, when Marvel announced a month of variants featuring Gwen Stacy dressed as some of their most famous superheroes?

Mary Jane Watson is hoping you don't.

And, of course...

For some unfathomable reason, she also decided to dress as a boring nobody.

 

[Escape Goat]

Nobody cares about Mary Jane. What a weird choice.

 

[Sou Da]

That Punisher cover.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Bruh, I'll take MJ as Captain Marvel than Danvers.

 

[TheOMan]

I didn't even know I wanted this, but now I do.

 

[Volimar]

I like how Mary Jane Iron Fist looks.

 

[LycanXIII]

They're getting married again, aren't they?

 

[nicanica]

That Nova one is lazy as fuck.

Draw a pointy Nova.
but red hair around the top.

 

[Ashhong]

I would watch that Deadpool movie

 

[BlueTsunami]

I am so into Wolvie Watson

 

[Altered Juice]

So who is getting replaced this time?

 

[Giolon]

That Mary Jane Iron Man is aces! Gives me a real Samus Aran vibe.

This is the only one I don't recognize.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

I like the iron fist cover the most.

Punisher variant looks like a "What If...?" parody.

Do they still make these? Or did they realize they would run into a wall where the Whatifiverse would intersect too much with the insane ideas they actually put forward in the canon?

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

The Punisher one is a shot fired across Slott's bough.

 

[Escape Goat]

That Mary Jane Iron Man is aces! Gives me a real Samus Aran vibe.



This is the only one I don't recognize.

Look at the pouches and logos on the background.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

This is the only one I don't recognize.

Gwenpool.

 

[Volimar]

This is the only one I don't recognize.

The background gives it away. It's Janepool.

 

[CalamityPixel]

I got a cool hero she can play.

Peters wife.

 

[Zackat]

That Mary Jane Iron Man is aces! Gives me a real Samus Aran vibe.



This is the only one I don't recognize.

looks like Gwenpool, or Janepool or something I guess now

it's a thing

I haven't read it yet

 

[Makonero]

That Mary Jane Iron Man is aces! Gives me a real Samus Aran vibe.



This is the only one I don't recognize.

There're Deadpool logos in the background so...Deadpool?

I don't get this, Marvel craps all over Mary Jane, why now does she get all the love?

 

[Htown]

Venom cover looks like something they actually would have done back in the 90s.

Wait, was there a story where MJ got a symbiote? I'd be kind of surprised if they didn't do it.

 

[mreddie]

So only now, Marvel is once again paying attention to MJ?

 

[Busaiku]

That Mary Jane Iron Man is aces! Gives me a real Samus Aran vibe.



This is the only one I don't recognize.

Gwenpool

 

[Eidan]

That Mary Jane Iron Man is aces! Gives me a real Samus Aran vibe.



This is the only one I don't recognize.

Gwenpool.

EDIT: Goddamn I'm slow.

 

[nicanica]

 

[jurgen]

So only now, Marvel is once again paying attention to MJ

They needed a theme of variants to pad their sales for the month.

 

[Bold One]

Mary Strange Watson

Iron Mary

Deadpool

Venom Jane Watson

really liking those

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Venom cover looks like something they actually would have done back in the 90s.

Wait, was there a story where MJ got a symbiote? I'd be kind of surprised if they didn't do it.

Time for Marvel to bring back the Life Foundation Symbiotes!

 

[excelsiorlef]

That Punisher cover.

100% Brilliant.

Easily the best one

 

[rrc1594]

So only now, Marvel is once again paying attention to MJ?

Is she confirmed to be MJ?

 

[Kevinroc]

As I said in the Comics OT, I dig some of those covers. I'm hoping there are more to be revealed. And I wouldn't mind if some of these covers were expanded upon (such as MJ Fist and Captain Marvel J).

 

[Bold One]

So only now, Marvel is once again paying attention to MJ?

 

[Giolon]

Well, I wonder if that one is Gwenpool. lol

I'd never heard of it before now.

 

[Chie Satonaka]

Am I not supposed to like these?

Cause I think they're neat.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Well, I wonder if that one is Gwenpool. lol

I'd never heard of it before now.

It is a Gwenpool variant. It's Gwen as Deadpool. It's a thing and an ongoing comic and some people love it and some really hate it.

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Iron Fist reminds me of Emma Stone.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

The Captain Marvel cover is kinda the best one actually.
Now, when's the Marlo variants month? Best female redhead in the Marvel Universe by far.

 

[Fancyarcher]

The Iron Man variant is so good.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

There are layers to that Venom joint

 

[Beth Cyra]

Can X-2Jane try to get with Spider Gwen? Now that would be cool and I might actually care about MJ again.

 

[Nesotenso]

saw this earlier. love MJ and love most of these. man I wish Slott could write a decent MJ or Felicia. We really need new blood on Amazing Spider-man

 

[Shaanyboi]

Cosplayers everywhere rejoiced.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

I like these, they're cool.

 

[Apdiddy]

Janepool looks strangely like a character from Overwatch.

For whatever reason, I actually wouldn't mind a female Punisher.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

It is a Gwenpool variant. It's Gwen as Deadpool. It's a thing and an ongoing comic and some people love it and some really hate it.

Nah Gwenpool is an entirely different character. Her creation was inspired by Spider-Gwen but her real name is Gwendolyn Poole.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Nah Gwenpool is an entirely different character. Her creation was inspired by Spider-Gwen but her real name is Gwendolyn Pool.

Yes.

 

[Aceun]

Not that I want Mary Jane to be any of these characters, but these all look great!

The Captain Marvel, Hulk and Strange ones are easily standouts.

 

[Fades]

Nah Gwenpool is an entirely different character. Her creation was inspired by Spider-Gwen but her real name is Gwendolyn Pool.

iirc, Gwen Poole was a girl from the "real" (our) world that read Marvel comics and then got sucked into 616, right?

 

[IrishNinja]

That Punisher cover.

for real, that's the one that made me stop like "damn"

The Punisher one is a shot fired across Slott's bough.

Slott's only sin is indulging CBR boards, that's really a shot at Joe Q & co

 

[Lagamorph]

I'm not ashamed to admit, Mary Jane Hulk is totally doing it for me.
