This Monday, we’re doing a campus crawl through Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters; crashing Spider-Man’s apartment in Queens; opening up the Batcave; unsealing the Fortress of Solitude; all in our newest project, Re-Covered!
Bottleneck Gallery is proud to present our newest ongoing project, Re-Covered. Re-Covered comes from our love of, and history with, comic books! Most of us at Bottleneck spent our formative years collecting floppies weekly, and overstuffing our parents’ homes with long boxes full of our favorite Marvel and DC characters, stories, and art. While sifting through our old comics and reminiscing over some of the cover art, we came up with a project aimed at both comic book fans and pop culture print fans.
For our first issue of Re-Covered, we’ve got two pieces of iconic comic cover art from the legendary John Byrne! John’s work on X-Men comics, alongside brilliant scribe Chris Claremont, in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s helped define so much of what cherish about the X-Men to this day. We’ve taken two of our favorite X-Men related covers that John created, one an awesomely feral Wolverine, and the other one of the most memorable X-Men storylines and cover pieces to date, and we’ve created officially licensed screen prints of the art!
We’re excited to bring some of these pieces to a new print medium for the first time!
John’s prints will be available for purchase, bub, on Monday (3/18) @ 12PM ET on our homepage, Bottleneckgallery.com!
