Mary Jane Watson Variant Month

You Hit the Jackpot, Tiger! Marvel’s Announces Mary Jane Variant Covers

To celebrate the launch of the Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man, Marvel is elevating the profile of one of Peter’s most popular supporting characters: Mary Jane Watson with a series of variant covers that portray her as some of Marvel’s most popular heroes.

“Both the Gwen Stacy Variant Program and this month’s Venomized Variant Program were such runaway successes, we couldn’t help but try to top ourselves,” says Marvel SVP Sales & Marketing David Gabriel. “And with Chip Zdarsky and Adam Kubert’s new Peter Parker: The Spectacular Spider-Man book on the horizon, the timing couldn’t have been better to put the spotlight on fan-favorite Mary Jane Watson.”
