Totino Tedesco’s work follows the first 12 entries in the Wizard World variant cover series: Miracleman #1 and Miracleman #2, both drawn by Eisner Award Hall of Famer Neal Adams for Portland Comic Con (Jan. 24-26) and New Orleans Comic Con (Feb. 7-9), respectively; Wolverine #1, illustrated by noted cover artist Greg Horn, for Sacramento Comic Con (March 7-9); Daredevil #1 by Michael Golden for Louisville Comic Con (March 28-30); Wolverine & The X-Men #1 by David Mack for St. Louis Comic Con (April 4-6); Hulk #1 by Mike Grell for Minneapolis Comic Con (May 2-4); John Tyler Christopher’s Amazing Spider-Man #1 for Atlanta Comic Con (May 30 June 1); Amazing Spider-Man #1.2 by J.G. Jones for Philadelphia Comic Con (June 19-22); 100th Anniversary X-Men Special #1 by Jorge Molina for San Antonio Comic Con (Aug. 1-3) and Guardians of the Galaxy #17 by Alvaro Martinez for Chicago Comic Con (Aug. 21-24). Christopher has completed a variant of Death of Wolverine #1 for the upcoming Richmond Comic Con (Sept. 12-14); Tom Raney has done so for God of Thunder #25 for Nashville Comic Con (Sept. 26-28).

Julian Totino Tedesco is one of the best cover artists in the industry, says Marvel SVP David Gabriel. Seeing each of his covers for Original Sin come in each month was a joy and we couldnt be happier with his Wizard World exclusive variant cover to the final issue of Captain America.

The Eisner-Award nominated Totino Tedesco is a native of Buenos Aires who began working on American comics about five years ago. He has drawn covers for many titles, including Marvel books Season One, Uncanny X-Force, Thunderbolts, John Carter: Gods of Mars, Original Sin and others.

We see as many fans cosplaying Captain America at our shows as just about any character, says John Macaluso, Wizard World CEO. That shows the enduring popularity of ‘Cap, ‘ and Julian Totino Tedesco has certainly brought that to life with this exciting cover.
