VERY LATE POST. Diamond had a problem with the regional warehouse they stored stuff in, in that they were being kicked out, so a lot of Marvel and other issues were (and still are) delayed.

(Woot for this being the 530th Comic Collection photo) As I am still over a year behind on reading, I’m not sure what’s going on in most of the DC books, but I do know that Doomsday is back in that Superman title! We got a new Black Canary run started, as well as a new Justice League run. Ghost Rider seems to be not having a great time in Spirits of Vengeance. Whereas Spider-Boy does seem to be having a good time. The Battle of Jakku continues. Tony’s war with Roxxon continues, while Venom War ends. And this was the 800th issue of Hulk! Though none of the covers really screamed 800th Anniversary issue cover, which was disappointing, they all just seemed like normal variants, it’s like they forgot. And the West Coast Avengers got a new run too!

The next two variants from both of these artists. Nakayama did a great job with this cover! He posted on IG that he had fun recreating the famous art. And love these Fornés covers!

I really like this Mike Del Mundo Flash cover! So much going on! I think it’s been a while since I got a Tiago Da Silva cover, and this Power Girl one is amazing. It’s like a painting in a museum.

Well now, I had to get that famous hand breaking through the ground. Character covers indeed. And I love this Lois cover by Dan Panosian.

Love these two Black Canary variants! Nakayama did a wonderful job at this! And y’all know how much I love legacy! This Otto Schmidt cover is so amazing!

I love these types of legacy covers! I see some I know, including the Arrowverse designs, and many more I’ve never seen. As I’ve said before, I hope to have one of these for Kamala Khan one day when she has enough costumes for this.

The Justice League is back! It’s nice to see this return. Now, I will say, I do feel wronged that DC didn’t do a Bruce Timm cover to pay homage to the very popular animated show named the same. Ridiculous. But I love these covers too!

Hopefully, I can get someone good to draw on this blank.

Such a fun wraparound cover! Bravo to Ed Benes, Sandra Hope and Alex Sinclair!

This foil cover is great art and a fun texture. I always love the raised UV wraparound foil covers! Daniel Sampere and Alejandro Sánchez were the artists of this!

It’s difficult to see the texture on these photos, but I tried! They feel funky.

Paolo Rivera did an amazing job with this Hello Dadkness cover. The lighting and reflections look so good! And the store pointed this homage cover from Creepshow to me and I was like oh that’s great, so I got it.

I love this Josemaria Casanovas cover! The colors look gorgeous! But also I loved seeing all the Riders on it too.

The next Clarke and Barends covers.

Love this Barends cover!

Such a great The Thing variant! And Clarke’s designs of Tony’s suits look great!

Such a freaky Momoko cover of Venom!

So many great covers!

I just really liked the main cover. Jessica Drew looks great by JeeHyung Lee. I really like Adam Hughes’s Firestar foil cover! A great use of Phoenix fire. I was surprised we got a Galloway cover here! Such a nice cover. And of course an Artgerm cover of Firestar.

VERY LATE POST. Diamond had a problem with the regional warehouse they stored stuff in, in that they were being kicked out, so a lot of Marvel and other issues were (and still are) delayed.

A bunch of late variants or A covers.

I forgot to take these together. The Cable issue is a specific version of his first issue. Gone 1 and 3 I finally took out of my box. DWM issue, DW variant and that another copy of that Rose variant.

I just like this Catwoman cover. And I had to get this Gwenpool and Jeff cover! In-Hyuk Lee did great here!

The Gone issues. I will order issue 2 next month so I can read these, like I did for Somna.

Almost too many issues to fit on the entire bed!

I’m intrigued by the Action Comics cover and stories. Catwoman seems to be going through things. As does Diana. The Question (Renee Montoya) got a new run. Naruto and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles got a crossover title. I’m excited to read it! The next part of The Battle of Jakku event started this week. Minnie Mouse became Captain Marvel! Spiders clash in Chasm. Double the Moon Knight, double the trauma. Miles has a new suit again, perhaps this one will stick (no pun intended but welcomed)? Gwen has a villainous love interest? Matty doesn’t seem to be having a good time on that cover. Grey Gargoyle in the Thor issue! Jean continues her journey. A lot going on with the mutant titles. Venom War continues. And Scarlet Witch introduced a new character.

More Slade is always good.

But I mean, LOOK at Rose. The art on that cover is spectacular and Rose looks great too!

Again, the two artists’ next covers in the collections.

Great Titans covers! I love these MacFarlane action figure covers.

Gotta love Rahzzah covers!

Love this Parrillo cover is like a painting! He does other variant covers for the coming issues, but I liked this one the best. This Toni Infante cover is fantastic!

There were so many variants for this issue! There is a Nakayama cover I want but it’s a 1:250 incentive cover, so I doubt I’ll be able to buy one.

I don’t know what it is about Minnie in this Captain Marvel suit, since this suit isn’t my favorite that Carol has worn, but I really wanted all these cover! Probably because that Momoko cover and Noto cover just look so amazing.

Moon Knight windowshades! Jen and Janet look great on that Avengers cover. Amora looks amazing! And that…uh…Magneto Sentinel (?) looks so cool!

This issue’s main cover and the next issue’s look great. All the details on them! And Gwen looks fun as The Thing.

I love these Phoenix covers.

Just gorgeous. That first one reminds me of Marvel trading cards from the 90’s.

And these Scarlet Witch covers are beautiful! Dauterman is brilliant as ever with the main cover. The Hetrick foil cover is dynamic! I’m happy to see the MCU design cover. Leirix did a great job with her cover. and I love seeing Dauterman’s design pop up with the long magical hair.

I wonder how many of the next ones I’ll want. I mean I already know, but still!

There will be some NSFW covers in this post, so, again, here’s my warning (yes those grey polybagged covers).

These two weeks had SO many issues. Oh, also, I finally finished the pile of comics I’ve been working on since May. Six months to finish it! Gahhh! And the pile I finished was the end of August 2023’s pile. So, woot for being 14 months behinds still, haha…

More Multiversus. We got the 1075th issue of Action Comics! Black Lightning got a new run. Batman got an Uncovered issue. Power Rangers got a one-shot. Heat Seeker got a new run. The new Deadpool continues her story. Venom War continues. There seems to be a rivalry starting in Ultimate X-Men. Psylocke got a new run! And we got a bunch of DSTLRY issues.

I love this Action Comics cover, so much legacy on that cover! And I’ve got to love this Nakayama Batman cover! I got two copies of this DC Vampires issue, one for Taurin Clarke’s issues and one for The Spectre character cover.

I’m very happy to have more Black Lightning comics!

Another Clarke cover! And I love the other variant! Though it would look amazing to have it as a foil cover with that lightning.

I love these covers! I will say it again, I was a Marvel Legends figure of her!

Another What If cover for Avengers’ 60th, and one of The Thing covers.

Of course the next set of Ultimate X-Men covers. This time it is all the covers. And again again, I want a Marvel Legends figure of Maystorm!

Just look at these Psylocke covers!!

The main cover shows a lot of this costume that I don’t see often. I like this Nguyen cover with the pink slash. The foil cover is so good! This Hicham Habchi cover looks so anime, and I love it so much! And of course, the Artgerm cover is gorgeous.

I still love that this is the one DSTLRY title that flips the front and back cover instead of a wraparound.

Such a great action scene on a cover.

This is just a menacing cover! Also, the dice look amazing, right??

Also such a good wraparound!

And again, NSFW warning for these last images.

The main cover and the foil cover are by Nakayama, fantastic orange as always. The second cover and the sixth NSFW one are by Tula Lotay, I love her covers! cover three is a Leirix cover! And the NSFW wraparound cover is by the Brazilian artist, BRÄO. I will also buy the other Nakayama and Leirix covers I couldn’t get.

There were many variants of this cover and they are a mix between SFW and NSFW, but they were in blind-bags so you wouldn’t know which of the (I think 6 other) covers you could get. The variants look really cool too, the colors and such and other small details look great.

Just five variants and three main covers. The Doctor Who one is the SDCC variant that I could find at SDCC this year. So, now I have all the variants of that first issue I’m pretty sure. The Iron Man 1 is signed by a writer on the title who visited my comic book store and signed a bunch of them.

Do I play the game this is from? No. Do I like that there’s a Sabretooth design? Yes.

So many issues!!

All-In is moving fast for DC. Clark goes back in time in Action Comics?? Absolute Superman arrives! Batgirl (Cassandra Cain) got a new run. JSA got a new run too. Mirka Andolfo started a spin-off from Sweet Paprika, I can’t wait to get to it! We got the next Ahsoka issue. Negasonic Teenage Warhead got her first title! And same with Kahhori from Marvel Studios What If, which again, I can’t wait to get to!

It’s always nice to get a team legacy cover! I really like the Acuña cover, the line-work is great!

Hello there Frison cover! And really love the details on this Noobovich cover. The leaves look AMAZING. The lack of detail on the rest of Ivy’s body makes the details of the leaves stand out even more.

I mean look at the leaves!

I will be excited to get all three of these covers next to each other for both sets of these covers.

I love these Batgirl covers so much! I mean half of them are Artgerm, so duh!

I love seeing these team covers!

Such great covers as usual from the world of Sweet Paprika.

I had forgotten that this first cover was a wraparound. Such a great cover! And I’m excited for the connecting covers with this other variant.

Such a great wraparound!

I love these Ahsoka covers! Each time I see covers for this title I get excited.

Such great art of great moments from the show (other than the character cover not being from the show).

Look at this Momoko cover. Glorious! And I just really liked this Negasonic cover.

I liked Kahhori’s design from the moment I saw her character design from What If promos.

The next DSTLRY title which I forgot to add in the main photo.

Happy Halloween!

To help promote the Max show, Penguin got a special one-shot. Poison Ivy and Swamp Thing also got a one-shot. And Wonder Woman got an Uncovered issue. Power Rangers got another title. The Battle of Jakku event continued. Venom War battles on. I can’t wait to get to NYX! And we got a new DSTRLY title.

Always happy to get more of these foil covers.

I love this KvsS cover. That’s pretty much it. And here’s a Nakayama cover with all the Thundercats.

I really like the web art on this cover. And I enjoy the 4th wall breaking on the variant.

As usual, I’m happy to have all the covers for this issue. I didn’t think I would get the 1:25 incentive cover but it was there in the store.

The Cuckoos look great by InHyuk Lee! And of course, gotta have this cover with Kamala on it.

I really like this wraparound cover!

The Stitch (626) post!

Somna issues I’ve had in my box for months, DWM issues from earlier in the year, a couple late variants, and as I mentioned last time, I got another copies of all those covers I didn’t realize we’re part of a set. Plus that Darksied card

SO MANY ISSUES.

Alien Romulus got a tie-in comic. The Avengers have a Latverian problem. Wanda and Matt have an adventure. Venom War continues. Iron Man got a new run started. Lois is super again. Harley starts a new arc. Oh. I just now at this very moment realized that all the All-In first issues’ covers are themed the same. Dang. I’ll have to get another copy of them all from this and last week and so-on. Crud. Haha. New arc for everyone in DC’s All-In. Though that Green Arrow issue is also issue 350. The Absolute universe continues to unveil. And we got a new Green Lantern with a new miniseries with Dark Lantern.

I just liked the green really, but Wanda looks cool in green. And I know we’re going to get a Doom takes over event soon, so I thought this may be the first steps to that in cover form.

Great covers for Scarlet Witch!

Okay. I had these three covers in one gallery because I hadn’t even noticed that I ordered them as “daughter”, father and daughter. Don’t you love coincidence?

Both of these Dazzler covers are just spectacular. I mean just look at them!

I always love these color-bleed covers! And this legacy cover I would usually have as a collection and later have them all, but more and more artists are doing these themed covers randomly and not as a set set. So I guess I’ll keep having this same experience as I go.

Yup, Love these covers!

Jenny Frison. That is all. And I love this homage to that iconic Fantastic Four cover, but with Godzilla and literary heroes!

I got these because I always enjoy Lois’ super form and costume. I think I also got covers with her on them the last time she got powers. I’m not sure though. But these also just look great in general too.

Nakayama is doing a few of these and I usually would have saved it for the collection post, but I also just love this cover so much I had to show it! And the other variant will be part of a collection for this run.

I mean, look.

I don’t know when the last time I saw Miss Martian on a cover, so this was a must. Another great Zatanna cover burning holes in my eyes. That Anniversary cover, which is really an All-In cover.

These are the Absolute Wonder Woman covers I got. Such great character design!

Nakayama was busy with all these covers coming out around the same time! Loved his cover here. And I loved having a normal and foil cover for the Homare covers afterwards.

Again, my bad on these posts being late.

We got a Marvel Halloween special again. Moon Knight got a new miniseries as the other one ends. Mystique got a new run for this new era. Venom war continued. Christopher Chaos got a Christmas special. And All-In continues for DC titles.

I love this x-ray cover of the Avengers Mansion! The Blood Hunters cover is honestly just because of all the orange, haha. And I had to get this iconic moment depicted on this Phantom Menace anniversary cover. Here’s another Kenya Danino cover of Mojo! And the Vicarious cover is strange, When I saw the image of the cover online it hit me in a certain way that made me want to buy it, and when I held in in-person, I was surprised that I didn’t get the same feeling. I’m not sure why. And even now as I type this, I love how it looks here. Odd indeed.

Initially I wasn’t sure that I wanted these covers with the other covers on the cover, but then I was like hey, that is a fun concept, so I’ll get them all. And of course I had to get this fun Skottie Young cover.

I also hadn’t even noticed that Logan got a new version of the costume, so, thank you Wade. Haha.

Mystique had a few nice covers that I wanted. The main one I got because of its similarity to that famous Days of Future Past cover, but it’s not exactly an homage cover. I still liked it enough to get two. And of course I had to get this Rose Besch cover. I love it! And the logo cover as with the other titles.

This Titans cover I hadn’t been sure I wanted, but when I saw it in-person, I loved it. See? That’s the way that should go! And here is the next Nakayama cover for Diana! And there’s the next Slade cover from Allwinter.

Nightwing covers have been killing it for this whole past two runs. You’ve seen it! The second one is the next Scott cover.

This cover I feel like I remember it being a panel recently, but I’m not sure, either way, I love it! And this other one is just a fun fourth wall break.

These both are the beginning of two mini collections. Though, I think s couple of the Cho (left) variants are incentive covers. But I think all the Homare covers are open order.
