  MARVEL FANFARE #10 (Aug 1983)
Marvel Comics
Acts of Re-covery: Mining Our Comic Subconscious
DECEMBER 30, 2017
(excerpt)
Several of these covers read differently from the others,
including two that I would describe as feminist fantasy inversions: the
pairing of the Catwoman cover alongside the one George Perez did of Black Widow from a 1983 Marvel Fanfare.
Those covers depict worlds in which the women are in the dominant
positions. Black Widow is really carrying the day in the your version of
the cover, so the book varies its perspective in that regard, even if
Trump comes out on top most of the time.
Those two covers just ended up next to each other. The book is for
the most part ordered chronologically. There are one or two pages where I
had to shift things around. I really didn’t want to start the book with
his famous quote about Mexicans, so I put his quote about building the
Wall first. The two were said within the same day, so that’s not such a
big change. I tried to follow the campaign’s chronology, but that led to
some of the covers echoing one another in odd ways. The two you mention
evolved out of the debates.

MARVEL FANFARE #10 (Aug 1983)
Marvel Comics
‘Merica Fanfare
I
wouldn’t even say this was the most ornate of them. I think the Wally
Wood cover is the more time-consuming, where I was just like, “I have to
draw all these lines...” just to make the hatching work. On those old
covers, the real trick is getting Trump to look like himself to some
extent, but also fit within the world of the characters. So I really
found the drawings of Trump more tricky to do.
Most
of these artists hadn’t drawn Trump so I have to ask myself, “how would
George Perez draw Trump?” I tried to find as many photos in similar
poses to what I want and finding a way to render them into the specific
style. So, with this Perez piece, he resolved all the issues for him in
terms of layout and even inking marks. It was really just a matter of,
“How can I get Trump to stay within that world?” And [Perez] is super
detailed in his images. I think he inked this one himself, if I’m not
mistaken. So it’s just extra ornate.

Because Marvel did come to their senses regarding Jon Favreau, and he’s busy working on Iron Man II right now. Which may include The Black Widow. I love me some Black Widow. I used to trace, or try-to-draw-freehand-while-looking-at-the-original, covers from the George Perez Marvel Fanfare series on the Black Widow all the time.
George
Perez's Excellent Black Widow Cover to a 1983 Marvel Fanfare. I copied
this cover and put in different background a dozen times.
Well, Black Widow, who debuted in an Iron Man story in Strange Tales,
may make it into he next Iron Man movie. Cool. And may be played by
Emily Blunt, best known as an executive assistant to Meryl Streep in The Devil Wears Prada.
