Channeling the Dark Aesthetic of the New Mutants, Accomplished Comic Artist Dave DeVries Delivers Fan-Favorite Characters in a Wonderfully Complex Illustration, Blending Contrasting Aspects of Seven Unique Figures in Special Marvel Limited Edition Comic-Con@Home Release

CARLSBAD, Ca. (July 20, 2020) Upper Deck, the leader in authentic memorabilia and premium collectibles, announced today the addition of a limited edition gallery print from accomplished comic artist Dave DeVries featuring popular Marvel Comic book series characters The New Mutants, a group of teenage mutant superheroes-in-training.

In the piece, Arrival of the New Mutants, Mirage’s soft and ethereal projections are centered and surrounded by Cannonball, Karma, Sunspot, and Wolfsbane in action stepping out from the mist. Magik is also featured brandishing the Soulsword across from a large-scale Warlock in his techno-organic glory.

Arrival of the New Mutants is an exclusive offering produced by Upper Deck for 2020 Comic-Con@Home and will be available starting on July 22nd for a limited time. Each piece is printed on heavy archival paper using a Giclée process and is hand numbered to just 100 prints. The 24” high by 18” wide exclusive print retails for $99.99 and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

“I’ve loved art from the time I was a little kid - especially comic books. When I got older, I actually had a chance to draw my childhood heroes - and get paid to boot! It was a dream come true” said DeVries, the talented creator of Arrival of the New Mutants and many other powerful comic illustrations. DeVries, who utilized his childhood passion to become a prominent member of the comic art community, is proud to have his work featured as a rare piece for what will be a unique year as comic fans celebrate Comic-Con from home amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
