Marvel drops comic book covers inspired by Jay Z and Kanye West
Titans of hip-hop get the superhero treatment.
Hip-hop and comic books have had a very close relationship over the decades, and once again, Marvel has taken that connection to another level with its ongoing series that transposes characters onto iconic rap album covers.
Some of today's most lauded rappers—Jay Z, Kanye West and Vic Mensa—were all honored in the fourth installment of hip-hop inspired covers for different figures in the Marvel universe, all three which premiered on Complex.
