These variant covers will be celebrating Disability Pride Month. The covers will also be coming with a special story that will be told across 4 Marvel Comics titles. The story is written by comic book author and New York Times Bestselling Author Marieke Nijkamp, with art by Andrea Di Vito. 

The story will be following:

• Daredevil 
• Misty Knight
• Echo 
• Hawkeye 
• Silhouette 
• Finesse

Writer Marieke Nijkamp had this to say about the story: 

“It may sound a bit cheesy to say this is a dream project, but for these stories, I got to bring together a roster of spectacular heroes and write an epic adventure that’s all about strength in community. It really is a dream come true.” 

Meanwhile, Artist Andrea Di Vito said this: 

“Super heroes are meant to inspire us to be better, but sometimes we forget that the greatest inspirations come from real life. People with disabilities prove to each and every one of us that the true measure of our worth is our spirit and our will, not the limitations of our bodies. I am happy to be working with Marieke Nijkamp. Their work speaks with a true voice and shines through every character they write.”
