We asked for your help picking the 75 best Marvel stories of all-time – and you delivered! Thousands of votes have been tallied, and today we’re proud to officially unveil the stories chosen to be included in the massive Marvel 75th Anniversary Omnibus Hardcover! But that’s not all! Get your first look at the dust jacket that will sheathe this titanic tome – featuring stunning artwork by master painter Paolo Rivera!


 “We loved Paolo Rivera’s cover so much that we couldn’t resist using it twice! Originally planned as the cover to the upcoming 75th Anniversary Celebration Anthology One-Shot,  Paolo’s exceptional artwork so perfectly captured the essence of Marvel’s history – it was just too good not to commemorate this monumental omnibus with as well.”
