UM-LSU football opener gets its own Marvel comic book cover to juice up fans

Nothing like a comic book cover on steroids to get University of Miami and LSU football fans juiced up.

ESPN and Marvel teamed up to unveil four comic book covers “that feature school mascots facing off over Labor Day weekend,’’ according to ESPN.

The games: Louisville vs. Alabama, Oregon State vs. Ohio State, Washington vs. Auburn and Canes vs. LSU.

The UM-LSU game is 7:30 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 2, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Its comic book cover depicts an especially nasty-looking LSU mascot Mike the Tiger swiping at— and missing — UM’s Sebastian the Ibis, Sebastian’s eyes bulging and muscular arms getting ready to, perhaps, slam Mike.
