The Age of SKOTTIE YOUNG! Celebrate With Marvel’s Baby Killers!

By Jay Deitcher on Thursday, March 7th, 2013

Marvel just released the first issue of its mega event, Age of Ultron today. What better way to celebrate an apocalyptic future than with a cover showcasing a midget robot standing atop toddler carcasses? The issue is available with a super special variant cover by the king of drool, Skottie Young! Skottie Young is an amazing artist who takes Marvel’s most iconic heroes and makes them rambunctious tots! They are more lovable than white fluffy puppies, sweeter than apples and honey on Rosh Hashanah, and cuter than your high school crush.

Everyone loves charming, cuddly, darling, delightful, precious little babies, especially when they are our favorite mass murderers, gamma-radiated monsters and mutated freaks! My favorite cover he did was the Avengers VS X-Men cover that showed that the best way to fight a race war is with young children.

I love Uncanny X-Men, but these rambunctious, mutant extremists are even better when they are wearing diapers! Galactus is cooler by destroying the planet while sucking on a pacifier! The Punisher is the most adorable vigilante ever, as he shoots villains dead and leaves their bodies to rot while he poos himself. If you are as geeked out for this event as many of my co-writers are and if you don’t hate babies, be sure to get your copy of the variant Also, you can look forward to Skottie Young’s next number one issue variants for the next three Uncanny X-Men reboots!
