The artbooks from Marvel Studios keep coming and now two that are out this summer have just been updated with their cover art.
Marvel Studios' Loki: Season Two - The Art of The Series
The first cover is for Marvel Studios' Loki Season 2 - The Art of the Series, which is due for release July 29th. The cover features an image of Loki himself, with the full length horns as seen in the finale of the show. The image was created by long-term artist at Marvel Studios, Jackson Sze. He is now a staple of the visual development team on the MCU and has been creating concept art for franchise since Phase 1.
The book itself is long overdue, having been previously scheduled for October 1st, but like many of the Marvel Studios artbooks, it was delayed multiple times. It is also the last release to come without a slipcase, as since Marvel Studios' Deadpool & Wolverine: The Art of the Movie, they have been added to all future releases. Previously, the artbooks were published in the same order as the movies and shows were scheduled, but due to heavy delays of everything but the Deadpool & Wolverine book, there is now a crossover of formats. It will be interesting to see how much concept art will be featured for Kang and his variants after the firing of Jonathan Majors. He was present in Marvel Studios' Ant-Man & The Wasp: Quantumania - The Art of The Movie, so there is a good chance that he will still take up some page space here too.
Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World - The Art of the Movie
Next up is the new cover for Marvel Studios' Captain America: Brave New World - The Art of the Movie. The art here was created by another artist with a long history at the studio, Ian Joyner. His time at Marvel dates back to Phase 3 and Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 2. The cover features Sam Rogers as Captain America as expected, but also includes Red Hulk and The Leader. Like the cover for Loki Season 2, the cover is a spoiler for later parts of the story, but with the release of the book coming on June 24th, it's past the need to hide anything from potential buyers.
Unlike the previous book though, this will be coming with a slipcase, so this piece will be featured on that instead, with a different image to be featured on the book itself.
It has so far not suffered the same series of delays past books have had, with just one so far and only with a two week push. This is currently the exception and not the rule, as of the last 24 books, only the artbook for Deadpool and Wolverine got away with a single short delay. Hopefully this will be the same and it will arrive June 24th.
Cover reveals from Marvel are an indication an artbook is closer to release, it doesn't mean they won't be delayed again however, but at the very least it's a sign that the worst of that is over. The books do come out a long time after the project they are based on too and, as seen in these new reveals, covers can include spoilers, a potential reason as to why they use placeholders for such a long time.
The books are expected to join the collection here and so when they arrive this summer, previews and reviews will be featured for those wanting to see more.
