On what inspired the series, Nakayama shared “In 2021, I was looking for an eye-catching cover idea that would really stand out on the convention circuit and came up with an almost all-red Scarlet Witch cover. To my complete surprise and delight, it really took off, and I’ve since drawn many other covers with the same technique. But it’s been a minute, and when Marvel asked about bringing these back, we decided to go BIG!”
“With this new collection of covers, I’m thrilled to play again with a bold, strategically-limited palette and a wide variety of characters I’ve never drawn this way before (or at all in some cases!),” he continued. “I hope you enjoy!”
