Lego Marvel Super Heroes
Covers for superhero books are usually something foreboding or action-oriented. You know what you’re getting into, more often that not. When making something licensed for these stories, like a video game or film, this rule generally follows through. Just look at the posters for each Marvel movie, once you’re done sifting through all of the dodgy Photoshop, of course.
Lego Marvel Super Heroes’ cover is similar to the posters for the films: a lot of characters, action poses all around from everyone, and showing off what they do best. Cap charges, Hulk prepares for a punch, Wolverine looks feral, Black Widow has her guns, and so forth. The cover does a good job of showing off the multitude of heroes that show up for this adventure, while also hinting at the scope of things to come with the appearance of Thor and Silver Surfer.
