Have you ever known something really cool that you wanted to tell the world but were sworn to secrecy about?  Welcome to my life.  I’ve actually known about this next story for a while, but had to keep my mouth shut so as not to get anyone involved in trouble.  I will say, this definitely falls into the “cool” category.  With Disney’s TRON LEGACY just around the corner from theatrical release, and the Mouse House recently acquiring Marvel Comics, it’s perhaps only fitting that we’ll soon be seeing some really snazzy variant covers featuring our favorite Marvel heroes in a TRON-like setting.  Friends of the site Mark Brooks and Brandon Peterson have turned in some amazing variants for upcoming flagship titles, all of which are listed below.  Can you imagine how collectible these are going to be?!?  Full Marvel news release below.  Share your thoughts in the comments.  Also visit Mark Brooks’ DeviantArt page, and Brandon Peterson’s DeviantArt page… and tell ’em Walters sent ya.
