Mirka Andolfo Signs Cover Deal With BOOM! Studios

by James Ferguson

At this point, BOOM! Studios is collecting variant cover artists. It also signed Peach Momoko and Miguel Mercado to produce a slew of covers over the next year. Now it’s announced it has signed a similar deal with Mirka Andolfo. The artist will illustrate twelve covers through 2021 with the first one featured on Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Willow #1, in stores now. Andolfo’s artwork will be featured on variants for the final four issues of that series through November, as well as Power Rangers: Drakkon New Dawn #2 in September and Something is Killing the Children #15 next year.

“It’s cool that the first American publishing house which asked me to do a cover was BOOM! Studios, when I was working as a colorist, ages ago,” said Mirka Andolfo. “And after years I’m happy and proud to be back on covers for the same publisher. I find the same enthusiasm and quality there was at that time, and books which are even better! I’m thrilled to work on covers for all these amazing series, especially the ones in the Buffyverse…”
“Mirka has distinguished herself as one of the most popular writers and artists in comics today. We’ve had the pleasure of working with Mirka for years and are thrilled to have her delivering so many incredible covers for our titles,” said Matt Gagnon, Editor in Chief, BOOM! Studios. “You’re seeing her awesome vision of the Buffyverse today with Willow #1 and we’re excited for you to see what she has planned for our top series over the next year.”
