Today Fuse is excited to announce that this fall, Marvel will tackle a second run of hip-hop variant covers, beginning with three homages to young, vital emcees: Black Panther #7, above, echoes 26-year-old King Mez’s Long Live the King. It's the work of Bill Sienkiewicz. Below, Doctor Strange #1 reworks 19-year-old Desiigner’s “Panda," by Infinte Mind War. Also, Mosaic #1 by Marco D'Alfonso takes on Earl Sweatshirt's 2010 debut mixtape Earl, released just a month after the Odd Future member's 16th birthday. “It’s about two creative art forms shouting out to each other," Marvel editor-in-chief Axel Alonso tells Fuse. "Hip-hop is the backbeat for any number of people who are writing, drawing and editing these comic books.”

King Mez digs his, saying: "Growing up a huge comic book fan, it was a dream to come true to even be a part of this. Black Panther at that? Mannn, it was automatic when Marvel reached out. Really cool way to have LLTK immortalized like that. Hope we get to do a variant collab on my new project too." Doctor Strange #1—one Marvel NOW!'s series of relaunches and new titles—is available Sept. 28. Black Panther #7 and Mosaic #1 are available Oct. 12. Many more heroes will get the rap album art treatment from there.
