Mega rare limited edition numbered record from the initial pressing of 220 of the special Comic Con edition of News of The World vinyl.

To celebrate 40 years since Queen released ‘News of the World’ on October 28th, 1977, an exclusive vinyl with Marvel’s Rock Variant tribute to the iconic Queen artwork, for X-Men Gold #11,  has been exclusively made for MCM London Comic Con. 

The limited run (220 copies) of the LP has the iconic original cover on one side, and the Marvel version on the other. Designed by Mike del Mundo it shows a Sentinel holding Old Man Logan and Kitty Pride as Colossus plummets to the ground. 

‘News of the World’ is one of Queen's biggest selling albums of all time. It opens with two of the band's most indestructible worldwide hits, the Brian May-penned ‘We Will Rock You’ and Freddie Mercury's ‘We Are The Champions’, monumental stadium anthems which remain a staple of major sporting events all around the world to this day. With songs written by all four band members, NOTW, Queen's sixth album, set a new standard in stylistic diversity, from Roger Taylor’s proto-punk blast of ‘Sheer Heart Attack’ to the salacious funk-rock groove workout ‘Get Down Make Love’, to the fragrant tropical calypso-pop ‘Who Needs You’. ‘News of the World’ also features the hit ‘Spread Your Wings’, the epic rock saga ‘It’s Late’ and Freddie’s wistfully romantic ‘My Melancholy Blues’.
