Even though I’m SO behind, it would be my luck that by the time I get to this pile, I won’t have Spider-Man India 4. We’ll see! ASM looks intriguing. Guardians also seems chaotic. This is the venom issue where Natasha gets a particular suit. I always love seeing Capt and Wolverine together. X-Men Red seems ominous. Captain Marvel gets a miniseries, which I don’t know when it takes place but eh. Superior Spider-Man is back! I’m excited for the Image and IDW issues of this week. And of course, the DC issues are going places. Oh and here is the first issue of the Batman: City of Madness Black Label miniseries.

I got this A Haunted Girl issue for the variant cover, but I also read it and I was hooked, so I’ll be getting the volume when it comes out next year. I really liked this Superman Lost cover. It’s just a nice duality.

These are the New Champions covers I liked. The Rian cover just for the colors and highlights. and the Betsy Cola cover for Magneto is just a great color scheme.

There were so many variants for this issue. Most of them are exclusives or incentives. I have some of them coming at some point after NYCC this weekend.

I love these variants! The Monica Rambeau cover is a legacy cover. And the other one is of course one based on The Marvels which I’m very excited for next month.

Here’s the next foil cover of the golden age issue one’s.

Yup, nothing has changed. Still Behind. Grumble.

I will be excited to continue the Dark Droids event. Intrigued by The Hood dropping by Ghost Rider. All the X-titles just seem to be spinning out of control and the Fall is coming soon! The High Republic started it’s third era in Phase I of it with Shadow of Starlight. This is the Strange Academy event finale (I hope there will be more from these characters). Marvel brought the G.O.D.S. special which is Marvel is reorganizing the cosmic entities and whatever else of the Marvel pantheon. Got another cover for a friend. This is the final issue of this Peacemaker miniseries. I”m excited to get to this Poison Ivy issue. Wondering what’s going on with Blue Beetle. Birds of Prey seems like a great team. Gotham war continues. And we got a DC Halloween special.

The Rex cover is for a friend. This is of course the next Andolfo variant for Darkwing Duck. And the next Ross Doctor Strange cover. And the last one is a fantastic cover that is themed for whoever the New Champions are. I won’t be getting all the covers, but certainly a few of them.

Just look at that Brooks Apocalypse main cover! I had to. And this is Dan Veesenmeyer’s X-Men 60th Anniversary cover. It’s just so perfect!

These are variants for X-Men 27. The first is another X-Men 60th cover, of course it’s paying homage to the classic Jim Lee cover. The next one is just a fantastic Momoko New Champions cover. And the last one is the next (and last, I think) Brooks corner box cover.

It’s funny that both these Momoko covers came out the same day, both characters look so similar. Both covers just work so well together.

Always love seeing multiple Nakayama covers in a week!

Normally I would have had these in a complete collection post, but since these came out as variants of the same issue, I just went with it. Plus, they did a great job at making this connecting cover set actually connect well.

Again, love these glow-in-the-dark covers!

Just the next DWM issue, the hardcover volume of Laila Starr, the previous week’s ST Insider issue, the main cover for Death of the Venomverse 5 from last week, and the second printing of Ms. Marvel The New Mutant 1.

Terry is dealing with the Court of Owls. Finally we have the next Static issue. This seems to be the penultimate issue of this Doom Patrol run. Parallax and Ollie have an agreement it seems. The Gotham War continues. Flash gets a new run! Also this is the penultimate Tales of the Titans run. Finally Power Girl’s title starts! Darkest Hour continues for the MMPR. The mutants are dealing with a lot in all their titles. And I have the last issue of the Death of the Venomverse but only in variant form. The second issue of the Tony and Emma wedding drops. And the second issue of Ms. Marvel arrived.

I just really liked this Spirit World cover. The details are wonderful. The Lord Zedd ranger design is pretty cool. This last one I think I thought it was by an artist I recognized, but apparently not, but eh, it’s a well-drawn cover.

I always enjoy a Leirix cover, this is just great. And of course another great Frison cover for Harley.

I think these are the last Corner Box cover and Ross Avengers 60th Anniversary covers.

Here’s another Clone Wars 15th Anniversary cover featuring season 7’s Ahsoka design.

I love these foil covers! The Flash one is so detailed!

And of course all the variants that my store could get for this issue. I’m going to do my best to get all the covers for this run.

I at least finished the pile I was reading, but still 6 piles behind. GAH! We’ll see what happens.

I’m intrigued by a Carnage What If story. The D-Squad looks fun. Hulk visits Logan(s). This is the penultimate issue of Death of the Venomverse. Issue two of the Strange Academy event involves Moon Knight. We have a new title with Uncanny Spider-Man and a new run of Captain America. The next issue of Stranger Things. Gotham War continued in Catwoman. Superman started a new arc. I’m excited for Cyborg since a character that I recognize from the animated show. The mystery continues in titans. Wonder Woman also started a new run. We’re halfway through Hawkgirl. And John Stewart started a new run.

This ASM cover is another JR Sr. and JR Jr. The X-Men cover is by Dan Veesenmeyer and is the cover of the art of the X-Men TAS book. And the Guardians cover is one I’ve been waiting for, I saw a video with the artist talking about how complicated it was to structure the drawing with the different designs of each character. I’m certainly going to get that slabbed. Oh, and speaking of slabbing, I got ones that I submitted at Baltimore Comic Con back recently, I’ll probably make a post about that soon.

These are the main cover and the Saturday morning variant for this issue. Both will be in the completed collection section eventually.

These three I just got for the covers. The first is I think designed like a VHS cover, the second will be a git for a friend, and the third is a Barrends cover that I got because the next couple issues have images that are sequential in narrative and I thought that was a nice touch. I don’t think I’ve seen that much or maybe ever?

This is just the next Nakayama cover for Catwoman. I can’t wait to arrange all the covers together!

I always enjoy acetate covers, had to get this.

Just, come on, Artgerm Wonder Woman cover. Just gorgeous.

Here’s another glow-in-the-dark cover of John’s dog-tags. So cool.

Two doubles that were from last time. Blue Beetle was just since there weren’t any other copies last time. And the Gotham War Prelude I thought I had, but this edition is from Batman Day which I didn’t go to, so I thought I’d get it just in case, plus free stuff is always nice.

The B&R is just because I didn’t realize it was a wraparound cover.

This foil was just because they weren’t sure if they could get it last time.

Some DWM issues, the last two Dark Horse Star Wars issues that I hadn’t gotten yet, and the two most recent Christopher Chaos issues that I didn’t pick up last time.

I’m liking these Uncovered books, I like that they also have variants. Wow, I’m not even started Night Terrors and here’s the final issue, HA. We got a summer DC special. Gotham Wars begins! We got a Doomsday special!!! A Space Godzilla special!! An Power Rangers Anniversary special!! Huzzah! Venomverse and Ultimates Invasion continue. We got a Marvel Age 1000 special, I have been loving these 1000 issue one-shots over the past few years. I had completely forgotten about the first issue from the brand new DSTLRY publisher which is made from creator-owned comics. I’m excited for this new way for creators to create comics on their own terms! And last but absolutely not least, Ms. Marvel finally has a new run! Yes it’s a miniseries, but I’m always happy when Kamala gets a new run. I will soon have each cover of this first issue, I’m waiting for the last one and I’ll make a post for all the covers later.

Covers below

Jamie McKelvie is just a great artist, I always enjoy when he makes a cover. And there’s a foil Artgerm.

Space Godzilla has always been my favorite-looking Godzilla villain. And I don’t even really know a lot about the character, but that’s fine. But I loved the A cover and this variant so much! The colors are just amazing.

Hey look, another of my favorite characters. Doomsday is my favorite Superman villain. This seems like such an intriguing special. I can’t wait to get to this!

Happy 30 years to the Power Rangers franchise!!! I’m happy to be a fan of them all. I’m a bit behind in watching the current couple seasons, but I’m very happy for all this. These variants were my favorites of the ones available. And I love that Amy Jo Johnson wrote a story for this! May the Power protect you!!!

Yeah, being behind still is just frustrating. I think I should be able to get more done in the next two weeks. Fingers crossed that I get caught up!

I feel like the Unleashed title will be fun following all these animal characters. There is so much drama happening in Venom, Deadpool, Black Panther and Iron Man. It seems like things are still going crazy. I’m excited for the Capt finale. And we have a new Jean Grey miniseries and a new title called Realm of X. I’m excited for them. Thor starts a new run already. I can’t wait to get to that Stranger Things issue! Even though I am vastly behind in PR comics, this Darkest Hour event looks cool. Knight Terrors continues. And Penguin returns in his first run ever.

Covers below

I always like these Montes covers. And these Barends Dark Grid variants are creepy! So well-done.

The Barbarians variant is another Avengers homage cover. I like these homage covers for the Star Wars titles. There’s another Andolfo cover! And that MTG hidden planeswalker by Frany is fantastic!

As y’all know, I love Rose Wilson, hence that great cover. Rahzzah brought it with this X-Force cover. Love this Derrick Chew Jean cover. This playing card cover by Frison is gorgeous! Artgerm made this great Battle Chasers cover. I always love when Szerdy does these tattoo covers. They’re just so well designed.

Some of these are from May! I’m happy they finally came in! the bottom three are just from the previous piles.

Great covers for this SWI issue. I always enjoy a foil variant.
