Artist Greg Capullo is finally returning to Marvel Comics.
Announced at San Diego Comic-Con, Capullo is making his official return to the House of Ideas in 2023. The publisher showed off Capullo’s variants for Wolverine #37 (previously solicited as a secret variant cover) — which shows the titular X-Man being the best there is at what he does — and Deadpool: Seven Slaughters #1.
