Marvel Heroes Invade The Rolling Stones' "Foreign Tongues" Vinyl Release

The Rolling Stones are dropping a new album, "Foreign Tongues," and their original cover art didn't exactly set the world on fire. But fear not, comic fans! They've called in the big guns: Marvel Comics.

Forget that divisive "Trinity" painting. The legendary band is now offering limited edition vinyl variants, each starring an iconic Marvel hero. For $70, collectors can grab "Foreign Tongues" with unique covers featuring Captain America, Thor, Spider-Man, Hulk, or Wolverine. But wait, there's more. Each variant comes bundled with an exclusive "What If…" comic book. This isn't just a simple recolor; these comics merge the Stones' famous tongue logo into the Marvel universe, with heroes interacting directly with the rock icon. Think Wolverine slashing the tongue or Spider-Man spinning webs around it. Hulk even gets a Steranko-inspired London scene. This is a brilliant move to inject new life into the album's release, especially for those craving something visually distinct. The album itself, a 14-track follow-up to the Grammy-winning "Hackney Diamonds," promises new sonic territory.
