Eminem’s Punisher Marvel Comic XXL cover to promote ‘Relapse’ album.
Eminem can be seen above as he covers and features in the XXL special edition Punisher comic from Marvel.
The rapper, 36, is promoting his new single ‘3a.m.’ and his album ‘Relapse’ (the album has been leaked and is available to download already).
Editor-in-Chief of Marvel Comics, Joe Quesada, said of the comic, ”When we learned that Eminem is a fan and collector of Marvel comics, we could only imagine what would happen if The Punisher and Slim Shady met up in the Marvel Universe. This was a unique partnership and the team had a blast working with Eminem and incorporating the rapper into the Marvel fold.”
His recent ‘3a.m.’ music video has gotten some mixed reviews and tales of drug addiction, as reported in the actual XXL magazine, got a surprisingly tepid response from the media. Personally, I kind of like that Slim is cooling off the fame wh*re game a little and working on projects that are this fun and creative. That is all his real fans are interested in anyway, and the comic is such a unique way to promote his album.
Assuming you didn’t bootleg it already, you can buy ‘Relapse’ in stores, 19 May.
Be interested in seeing the Punisher comic as I read the Punisher a great deal.
