- Daniel José Older: "This is such an excellent project, and I'm very happy to get to be part of it. I've read all the Marvel’s Voices collections and loved them, so it's great to be able to write for one! ¡Pa'lante!"
- Lauren Amaro, co-editor: "Marvel Voices is such a unique project that I feel really drills down on the core Marvel tenet of reflecting the world outside your window–so when the opportunity came to help put together Marvel Voices: Comunidades and celebrate the Latinx community, I couldn't have been more excited. And that excitement only continues to grow as story pitches continue to roll in–trust me, you're not going to want to miss out on what this talented group of creators have got cooking up!"
