Wow, I totally forgot to post till now! I guess since I was traveling last weekend it slipped my mind.
Everything here is a late variant other than the Carnage issues which are just here because of needed two for the event. Oh, and also another copy of Ultimate X-Men 2.
Always happy to see The Living Tribunal on a cover. And it’s a new version of him. There’s that great Alex Ross cover of Enchantress. and I think it’s been a while since I’ve had a Maleev cover, I really liked this Magneto cover.
Evidently something big happens in Outsiders 6, there was an article about it! I’m still happy for Nicole Maines with this Dreamer stuff. Brainiac is back and coming for us all in this event House of Brainiac starting with this Action Comics and Green Lantern. Hercules is the next Disney comic to hit the shelves. Star-Spider looks cool! The next issue in the X-Men ’97 prequel comics dropped. This Ms. Marvel miniseries is half-way done. I think this is the last issue of the Resurrection of Magneto. Ultimate X-Men 2 dropped with the first issue of the run with Mei (Maystorm), the character design of which I really love. I didn’t post images of the covers yet since my store actually had almost all the covers, so I’ll buy the last (retailer-exclusive) variant next month and take the photos then. I was just so surprised!
Another cover with Avery. Another with Dreamer. Great characters!
It’s always nice to see The Batman-Who-Laughs on a cover again. Especially in this cover in that classic Batman image. And of course Flatline hosting another cover.
My favorite colors is orange.
Thrawn being front and center I’m on a cover like this is pretty great. And the design of the cover itself is also fantastic. And of course the moment I saw Ahsoka on a variant cover for this, I ordered it.
This, like the Ahsoka and Sabine cover is part of the Master’s and Apprentices cover set. I’m not getting them all, but you’ll see some of them. Though also, Baylan and Shin are pretty awesome characters.
It’s funny how similarly life-like Ross and Hildebrandt’s (respectively) art are.
I certainly feel like this is paying homage to something specific, but I’m not sure. But either way, it looks great!
Love these covers! Thank David Mack Jean cover is just gorgeous!
This specific version of Sabretooth has always been and will likely always be, my favorite design of Victor. That first X-Men TAS design was the first I saw of the character. I’m not quite sure why I like this design so much, but I’ve not seen another design that I like more. So these were a must.
This first cover is paying homage to classic Marvel cover and the second is the next Momoko cover for this run of Ms. Marvel. Also, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE that they put the original cover the cover is paying homage to on the back of the issue. I really hope that becomes a mainstay in homage variants in the future. I know a lot about comics, but I’m not at the level that I know all famous covers when seeing an homage cover and know which it’s referring to. This at least helps. Though I guess I was so excited about the cover that I put it in the wrong week pile, whoops! It’s another variant of X-Men 33 from the previous week.
This is the end of this mini arc in Poison Ivy. Whereas a new arc seems to be starting in Shazam. This Avengers issue is the first of two to crossover into the Fall of X. This is the antepenultimate Krakoan era X-Men issue. Both Capt and Thor’s issues look intriguing. Green Goblin got a special issue. The mini symbiote event continues. And Deadpool started a new run!
This is just the second printing of this issue. And of course Kamala being the cover means any reprints I must have!
I forgot to take photos of these properly so the order is a bit weird. The main cover is here because Kamala is on it. The Storm trading card cover by Dauterman is here because that design for Storm has been great in the titles and he’s a great artist. And that Emma Frost one is one of the Hildebrandt covers which will have their own post when I have them all.
Had to have this first variant by the creator himself, Rob Liefeld, especially since he has said he would be retiring from drawing Wade soon. The foil cover is just cool. And I love these Saturday morning cartoon variants!
DWM’s I picked up from my box. And some variants that were late or that I decided to get later. And the Ms. Marvel volume from Iman’s run.
As you know, I always enjoy design variants. I love the THR cover with the eye there. I just really liked that Iron Man cover. And this is one of the other variants for Visions, though, I still have some to find. and of course the next Nakayama cover for Catwoman.
Intrigued by the Green Arrow cover! IYKYK. Medieval themed Power Girl. This was the final issue of Amazons Attack. A new HRA miniseries. Darkest Hour continues in Power Rangers. An interesting Image Comics title started, Under York. Matt and Logan seemingly battling. Rise of the Powers of X has quite the cover. Sabretooth War rages. This run of X-Force hits its final issue at 50. This is the antepenultimate issue of G.O.D.S. MJ and Felicia got a team-up title with Jackpot & Black Cat. And we got the X-Men ’97 prequel comic that takes place between the original X-Men: The Animated Series and X-Men ’97 revival. Miles Morales reached its 300th issue!
Seeing Red Canary on covers is always a plus. As such, this cover is here. Omega got a character cover that looks great. Thank you Stephanie Hans.
Lorna on a cover is fantastic. This connecting cover for RotPoX and FotPoX will be great.
I love the colors of this and the joy on Lorna’s face.
As you know, I love covers that are other things. This magazine cover is great! And this Edge of the Spider-verse homage cover is also fantastic.
Such great variants for G.O.D.S.
Every time I see this headshot cover, literally every time, I think it’s Electra even though I know it’s Sersi. I hadn’t gotten all these covers of the new versions of the cosmic entities, but I had to once I realized what they were doing. And that last cover is just amazing, but mainly I got it because of the Living Tribunal on the right.
This Yoon cover is just great to show of MJ’s costume. And I love these Saturday Morning covers by Galloway.
So many great covers for this X-Men ’97 run. Look at these! Harvey and Dauterman are just so talented.
Whenever I see a Mr. Garcin cover, I try to get it. He just makes such great collages for these covers. And I had to get the logo cover for this commemorative issue.
It’s not often that there are polybag covers, but for NSFW covers it’s a must. Certainly is a well-done cover.
This Nightwing issue is the one before the big milestone issue. I’m excited about the Superman story. Titans having Waller on the cover is worrying, haha. I wonder why Mr. Terrific is on the JSA cover. Curious about the Catwoman arc. We got a Spring special from DC. The final version of Stranger Things The Voyage. The Star Wars Visions comic finally came out. Jango Fett got a miniseries. I’m excited to see Spider-Boy popping up in a couple Spider-titles. We got a Spider-Man special hinting at things to come. I wonder what’s going on on that Magneto cover. And I mean look at that X-Men Forever cover!
I love this wraparound cover! Dan Jurgens is such a treasure.
Love these Catwoman covers!
There were so many Visions variants, but this was the only one I could get right now. All my love for Rose Tico. Look at this Betsy Cola variant of Ahsoka!
Such fun Spider-Boy covers!
Mirka Andolfo did this great cover for Spider-Woman! And look at the colors and depth on that Web of Spider-Man cover!
Always happy to see Riri on covers.
That main cover is just art. Leirix did a great job at drawing Mystique. And of course another X-Men ’97 action figure variant.
Late connecting cover for the High Republic 4. A second printing of Ultimate X-Men 1 (technically not a late issue, but eh). That cover of Carnage 5. The Greg Capullo variant for Ghost Rider Final Vengeance. And the late issue of Sinister Sons 2.
Since Ultimate X-Men sold out so quickly, by the time I picked it up in the store the second printing was already available to order. The Carnage cover is just so good! And I don’t think I have many Capullo covers, or at least I’ve not gotten one in a while.
The big DC thing to happen this week was the Suicide Squad: Dream Team title that is written by the ever-wonderful Nicole Maines, the actress who played Dreamer on CW’s Supergirl show. Ghost Rider got a special. The X-titles continue to dive into chaos. I’m intrigued by the Thor issue with Gaia. Gwen and MJ battle again in this issue. Clint and Natasha get a new team-up title that I can’t wait to get to.
This 2099 cover is a Windowshades cover. Well-done! I don’t see many non-incentive covers from Gonzalez, they’re great! This MMPR cover is so good!
These next few covers are mostly character-covers. Flatline is such a cool-looking character. Rey has some great covers.
Avery is just a great character and I love the costume design too.
I can’t wait to get to this title. Nicole is such a wonderful person and she’s written a few stories in the past year or two and they’ve been great! I can’t wait for her Dreamer book coming soon too!
Great foil cover! And I’m looking for the incentive cover too.
Great covers! I think I’ll have to look for the other Through The Ages covers for this title.
I don’t tend to get these head-shot covers, but sometimes I go for them.
Nakayama giving us a fantastic cover. I always love his choice of red. Alex Ross is just amazing with this cover, as always. And Artgerm doing this classic Natasha costume cover is great. Love it!
All the DC titles look great. There seems to be a lot going on in Marvel other than all the X-drama. Miles and peter got a team-up title. Gwen got a Giant-size special. Gang War ended with this Daredevil issue. This Venom issue started a mini event between it and Carnage for two issues each. Peach Momoko got a title in the new Ultimates universe focusing on the X-Men. I feel like her universe she started a couple years ago could have been the start of this perhaps? Either way, it’s great that she gets a whole universe to play in. And of course, Kamala got a new miniseries, which as y’all know, is my fave character.
Here’s the next Danino cover for Gargoyles: Dark Ages. This is the main cover for Ultimate X-Men, waiting on the variants. Gotta love the next Bartel cover for She-Hulk. Szerdy tattoo covers are just always amazing. I love them! And the Thanos cover is one of the Marvel Masterworks covers. I’m not going to get all of them, I don’t think, but I will get a few of them. They’re literally masterpieces.
I wouldn’t normally post covers that are part of a collection individually, I will be getting all these as they come. I added these photos simply because I also have the figure that this cover is based on.
Here they are next to each other. They look great! I may do this for the other covers once I get the corresponding figures. I’m not sure, we’ll see. Also, 3 days till the show returns!
Most of the covers minus the incentives. Love these! I forgot that the Stormbreakers covers are almost virgin covers, they look great! I still have the goal to get one of every cover with Kamala on them and all Ms. Marvel issues and variants. That’s probably my only 100% complete collection goal. One day!
A lot of covers. All fantastic ones! Also one late normal issue.
The X-Force cover is an homage to the classic Giant-Size X-Men 1 from 1975. That Storm cover is just quite cool. And of course the next Nakayama cover for Catwoman.
A great foil cover for Power Girl by Carla Cohen.
The Moon Knight is a second printing of the issue. So cool! It reminded me of some MTG art. Of course this Fire & Ice cover is an amazing Artgerm for the Sweater Weather set. I didn’t even know about this Ms. Marvel cover for Avengers Twilight 3 from last time. It’s paying homage to the Dark Knight Returns infamous cover. I love it so much! Plus my favorite color is orange.
