The Marvel Studios' artbooks are often listed for months with placeholder art, not getting their final cover until sometimes just a couple of months before release. One of their upcoming books, Marvel Studios' Thunderbolts: The Art of the Movie, is the next book to unveil its official cover art.
The art was created by Marvel Studios' veteran and Director of Visual Development, Andy Park, and was spotted on online retailer listings. The image depicts the Thunderbolts team, consisting of Yelena, Bucky, The Red Guardian, John Walker, Ghost and Taskmaster, all painted in Park's detailed and realistic style. This will no doubt be the cover for the slipcase only, with the wrap-around book cover inside having a different image.
The book is set for release on August 26th and will come with a slipcase, lithograph prints and 224 pages of art and insights for the movie. It has an RRP of $100/ £89.99, which was an increase of $40 when the slipcase and prints were added, starting with Marvel Studios' Deadpool & Wolverine: The Art of the Movie last year.
The book is also 'unique' in that it has yet to be delayed, its release date has always been August since it was revealed. I often report on delays for the Marvel Studios' artbooks here because it is a serious problem. Could it be release number 25 of the Multiverse Saga that ends the 24 book long delay streak?
Expect the book to feature a dive into the costume design of the characters, including the early art for the debut of Bob and his alter egos. As seen in other books from the series, key scenes, settings and weapons will be showcased too. The artists at the studio have always created amazing concept art and the books are always well designed too, so fans of the movie should keep their eye out for this release later in the summer
A copy will be joining the collection here, so previews and a review will be shared when it arrives. Those interested can order Marvel Studios' Thunderbolts: The Art of the Movie here;
