Unlike Drake, Eminem isn't worried about following the trend of "no new friends" in 2013. As such, the Detroit rapper teams up with Iron Man and Marvel Comics for the Mighty Avengers #3 variant cover.

It's designed by Salvador Larroca, who also did the cover for Eminem/Punisher: Kill You in 2009. Paul Rosenberg, Em's manager and president of Shady Records, described this latest collaboration as a perfect chance to connect the dots between Marvel and the release of The Marshall Mathers LP 2. "When the opportunity came up for us to do a variant cover with Eminem and Marvel, we immediately thought about how cool it would be for Eminem to be sitting with one of his favorite super heroes on the steps of the now abandoned house that he grew up in," he said.

The Mighty Avengers #3 variant issue is available in comic book shops today. You can view the full cover below. Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP 2 is out now.
