100 Years of Wonder
From humble beginnings as a cartoon studio in the 1920s to its name in the entertainment industry today, The Walt Disney Company proudly continues its legacy of creating world-class stories and experiences for every member of the family.
During D23’s Expo event, we found out when some of the festivities would kick off. You can read about that HERE. Disney 100 Years of Wonder will be the largest cross-company global celebration in the 100-year history of The Walt Disney Company. Disney Parks around the world will celebrate the 100th anniversary, with the heart of the celebration at Disneyland Resort.
The 100-year celebration will officially kick off on January 27, 2023, with special limited-time offerings taking place throughout the resort all year long. Take a look at the most recent updates regarding the celebration HERE.
Marvel Comics
Marvel Comics will be celebrating the anniversary in their own unique way.
To mark the anniversary, Marvel Comics will have a special monthly DISNEY100 VARIANT COVER PROGRAM featuring Disney characters, like Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and more.
The variant program in honor of Disney100 will celebrate Marvel’s past, present, and future through the classic “What If” lens with a fantastic reimagining of Marvel’s most classic comic book covers. These first-of-its-kind art pieces will see Disney’s iconic characters immersed in the magic of Marvel storytelling as they pay homage to legendary moments in the Marvel Comics mythos, including Captain America assembling Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in AVENGERS #4, as well as the groundbreaking debut issues of FANTASTIC FOUR and THE INCREDIBLE HULK.
Fans can look forward to a new Disney100 Variant Cover each month during 2023 at local comic book stores. The first variant cover can be found on select issues of THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN beginning with issue #17 on January 11th.
