As usual, I’ve not started these yet since I took the photos today.

After I finish these comics, I hope to get to catching up on Strange Academy and the various Star Wars titles in the main series so I can get to reading the newer issues when they release. We got another Punisher one-shot. This ASM issue I can’t get to yet till the MJ and Black Cat mircoseries ends in April. But it’s the first story back after Dark Web ends. I’m still wondering what the Savage Avengers story will lead to. Thor’s Thanos quest continues with this issue. Betsy Braddock (Captain Britain) got her own title. The next title in the Sins of Sinister event started with Immoral X-Men. Yoda’s new arc starts here with him reminiscing about a time when Dooku was younger. I think it’s something like Yoda brought him back after he’d left or something. A new life begins in Gargoyles. Eros is causing trouble for Diana and Yara in this arc’s finale. DCeased’s antepentulimate issue dropped. The next issue of Flash’s mini-event is here. We got the final issue of Lazarus Planet arrived. And the first issue of Superman during the Dawn of DC era came to us too.

Many covers below.

I really liked the colors and design of this cover.

Glad I got this Brooks cover for Immoral X-Men. It’s just a gorgeous cover.

I had to get this arcade game style design. It’s just fun.

I totally forgot that this was a wraparound cover! Even though it’s been advertised in DC comics for months, haha. I still think they should have given the comic title itself to Jon as the lead character and kept Clark in Action Comics as the lead. Jon has his own title, but it would have been a good gesture to just hand the book over to Jon. I liked the dynamic when they each had one of the two Superman titles. And of course once I get done with BvR’s last issue, I’ll be able to get to these Dawn of DC issues. They certainly should have waited till the Lazarus event was done before rolling out these issues. If only to try to get in a somewhat consistent publishing order.

Such a great variant, and I mean, bam, Lois is in charge!

Two more covers of this series and I will be able to make the completed collection post and figure out what these covers have been referring to.

Here’s the next Romero cover! I nearing forgot this was a Romero when I was in the store sorting my pile out. I almost put it back and then remembered that this was a Romero.

Here’s the Momoko variant for Betsy’s title. Wow, Peach Momoko is having a very good month with all the Women’s History Month covers she did for the Star Wars titles. But yeah, I love this cover a lot. The color blending is superb.

This is the Mirka Andolfo variant for this issue. Such a great cover!

The A covers for these three titles are of course still Nakayama. They’re just so good! This reminds me that I need to make my Nakayama Reds post after I finish these.

This is the next connecting variant for that Noto SoS cover that arrived in the post before this.

I’m happy to get more Dauterman cascading legacy covers. They’re lovely.

Double Jen Bartel this week! She-Hulk, of course, but also this spectacular Dreamer cover for DC.

I really loved this cover, I might get is slabbed.

These are A covers or variants that were late for the past two or three months. Some covers will be below the main image.

The first variant is based on the satirical awards that Marvel used to give out to some readers who pointed out continuity errors in issues. The second is another of the anatomy designs. And the third cover is one of the Sins of Sinister connecting covers from February.

Batgirls has a lot going on. Lazarus Planet continues. We got the next Marvel Voices issue. The Murderworld story progresses. I really want Beast to get his comeuppance in Wolverine. We’re one step closer to learning what happened in Fantastic Four. Tony has problems as usual. I’m still loving Photon’s title. The same with Wasp’s. The X-Men and Captain Marvel crossover continues in the X-Men title. The Avengers Assemble, End of the Spider-verse and Sins of Sinister events all continue.

Covers below.

Almost at the end of this event. Again, I’m very skeptical about these covers connecting.

Just a gorgeous cover. R.I.P Jason David Frank.

The next Hall of Armor connecting cover.

Loved the colors in the A cover for this issue!

I wasn’t initially going to get these Disney 100th Anniversary variants, but they grew on me as I looked at them more. This is the first one re-imagining that classic Fantastic Four #1 cover from 1961 with Mickey and co. as the lead characters.

The issues of X-Men and Captain Marvel will have connecting A covers for the duration of this crossover. And (so far) they actually connect pretty exactly! Other times the images don’t line up as they should and its a bit annoying to see them next to each other and not line up even though it’s the same image and should line exactly.

These are more of the homage covers. Though the X-Treme X-Men cover isn’t on the list that I have of all the covers, so these are either the last ones or almost the last ones. I’ll check them all and I know I’m waiting on a couple still. Once I make sure I have them all, I’ll be able to make the complete collection post. And perhaps a couple other collections will be complete too. We’ll see.

I’m going o be honest, I can’t remember if I got this poster already. I don’t think so, but I’ll have to check. Since the new store manager took over, I forgot to tell him that I used to get the Marvel posters when they came in. I mentioned it when I got this. This is the Dauterman A cover.

Again, not started these yet.

I think Ghost Rider is starting a new arc. Vader and the Techno Union leader come face-to-face again (I think I said that about last issue but it didn’t happen in the issue). Hidden Empire continues (I hope to be caught up soon to be able to get to this event). Namor came to the defense of Wakanda at the end of the previous issue of Black Panther, excited to see what’s next. Frank and Matt seem to be about to start battle. For Gold Goblin, ASM and the new Red Goblin, they are set post-Dark Web, so I’ll get to them soon. We have the next issue of Secret Invasion and Sins of Sinister. Stranger Things has a new title that started. Selina seem to be having a good time in Batman, though considering where she currently is, I guess I’ll have to see what’s going on here. Harley and Ivy reunite finally in this Ivy issue. The very much delayed Static season 2 finally dropped with its first issue. The One-Minute War continues in Flash. And Lazarus Planet continues to be chaotic.

Covers below.

Romero is back with a new set of variants! I was happy to see that.

The next connecting cover for Hidden Empire.

Still waiting on the A cover for this, but here’s the Window Shades cover for the issue.

This is the first connecting cover (by Noto) for Sins of Sinister. Now, there seems to be a set of connecting covers per month for SoS. I assume that means that each month has a connecting set and not that they all connect.

This is the first of Artgerm’s new Batman cover set. They all look great!

These are two relatively new characters. Both are pretty cool. I know I’ve got another one or two of Red Canary before now, But I don’t thin I have had any with Flatline yet. Had to get these!

I forgot to add these in the main photo. I saw that this issue had a variant with Ahsoka on it and it is a foil wraparound cover. It looks great!

These last 4 posts were late by a few days since I had to wait to get comics till Saturday instead of Thursday.

That Gargoyles facsimile issue is from the original comic run in the 90’s and I tried to look for the collected editions of said run but couldn’t find them. But I did see that this reprint was coming and that there would be a collected edition or and omnibus this year, so I’ll certainly get those. MTG is about go nuts. Can’t. Wait. And Sana Starros has her first title. I remember when she first debuted and everyone was freaking out about Han Solo already having a wife, haha. I’m very curious about this X-Force issue sine we seem to be finally getting a look at this masked character who’s been after the mutants tech for months. I have a guess considering the last couple reveals, but I’ll see. Can’t wait for more from Wakanda! Miles is really going through it in his title. Viv Vision is asking for Wanda’s help and I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen. We have the title debut of Blade’s daughter, Bloodline! A new Silver Surfer title started that has a character who piques my interest. New cosmic characters always do that. The next issue of Demon Wars dropped! We got he reveal of Avenger Prime in the last issue of Avengers Assemble and we will learn more about him in this issue. And here is the end of the Dark Web event. We have a new title with Batman: Legends of Gotham. Lazarus Planet rolls on. Flash continues with its self contained event of this One-Minute-War. DC gave us a Valentines special and also a Black History Month special.

Another bunch of many covers below.

A very Star Wars shot on this variant.

The next of these anatomy covers.

I liked that this cover showed her whole character design and the colors are nice too.

These are the Momoko covers for this week!

This is one of Peach Momoko’s covers that I really like more than usual. The colors pop and is just looks incredible.

These are all four variants for this issue. All fantastic!

I always love that Peach does the A cover and at least one other cover for her series’.

This one stood out from the rest. Maybe I just love orange, haha.

It’s not often that a Guri Hiru cover isn’t an incentive cover, so if I see one that’s a normal variant, I tend to get it. I could watch a whole anime in this style.

This was also a good week for landscape covers. This one is especially stunning. Though that may just be my love for samurai talking.

This is the next decades cover for Avengers Assemble. I really hope these all do connect, because it would be really weird if they didn’t but they’re all described as connecting covers. We’ll see soon I guess.

The last Dark Web covers! The covers that Marvel could have made an 18-cover mural type design with that web in the background as one image with all the characters on the giant web, but noooo. Yes I know I’ve mentioned this already, but it’s a very good point.

This is a gorgeous cover of Tatsu Yamashiro by Nathan Szerdy

It’s been a while since there’s been a Raven cover, especially one that resembles the design from the animated series.

And of course, the romance novel covers. They do look fantastic. I kind of wish they would have made more variants for this one-shot in this style. Though maybe they’ll do this kind of design each year.

I haven’t started any of these yet. I’m excited that Darkwing Duck is back, joining Gargoyles. The story in Yoda has been fun. I’m wondering what the next arc in X-Terminators will be. Here’s the next part of the Murderworld story. Thor exploring Thanos’ history has been intriguing. Then there’s the penultimate (though the reading order is all over the place) issue of Dark Web. And right into the next mutant event, Sins of Sinister! I’m not sure what’s going on with this event but I have a theory. Punchline is almost ending. Harley is still battling her Dar Multiverse self. The new Catwoman arc starts now! I’m excited for Helena’s story in JSA. The next part of Lazarus Planet is here. G. Willow Wilson’s Catwoman story from the One Bad Day collection is the one story from that bunch that I wanted to read. And it’s the Dawn of DC (even if a bit premature since the Lazarus Planet event doesn’t end till April. I really wish they would have paused titles of this new era till April.) with Action Comics 1051!!

Many covers below!

This variant is by the wonderful Mirka Andolfo. I almost missed it since it didn’t looked like her usual style. When she posted about it on her socials I made sure to add this to my list.

This was a great week for David Nakayama! All four of these titles have him doing the main covers! I love how all these covers show the range of David’s work. The matte colors and the glossy effects are great!

Dark Web cover! I do enjoy Scorpion.

This cover just looks awesome. I haven’t read this title, but I flipped through the issue and I will certainly be looking to get the collected edition because the art inside is spectacular.

Another stunning Warren Louw cover! The details and colors are fantastic!

Always happy to see InHyuk Lee’s covers.

I think it’s been a while since I got a Mattina cover. Though as I type this I feel like I might be forgetting a recent one I got, but either way, sometimes I can’t resist getting one.

There’s something about this cover. Having all the Super-Family on one page is just nice. Maybe it’s the shade of red that’s used. I just know I liked it.

Jamie McKelvie creates fantastic art. And I’m very glad he did the interior art too. Can’t wait to get to this!

I love the design for Dark Multiverse Harley, hence getting the cover again. And of course I had to get this Jenny Frison cover.

The first one is the next homage cover and the second is of course another gorgeous Artgerm cover!

A bunch of late issues came in finally! Woot!

The Gwenpool omnibus that came out December 20th. This is the variant cover. Which I got since that image was the first moment we were introduced to Gwenpool.

These next three variants are from December 28, 2022.

As I’ve mentioned before, when it comes to these anniversary covers for Star Wars I don’t tend to get many of them. This one was chosen because I remember watching Attack of the Clones in the theater and when Yoda walks into the scene, the crowd went nuts. It was the biggest reaction of the movie. And when I saw that the fight that followed was represented in one of these covers I had to get it.

This is another one of the homage covers. The details of which I’ve said I’ll save for the complete collection post in the future.

This is David Nakayama’s Demonized cover. This is one of the covers that I accidentally misnamed and didn’t get during the week it came out. Rachel and Lorna look great!

These are from January 4, 2023. The Avengers one you’ve seen but they got me a replacement for the little bit of damage to the other copy they gave me.

The next homage cover.

Another window shades variant.

Another Momoko cover. Psylocke is just such a great character to make covers of.

I think this was the only other Demonized variant I got. Love this!! The colors are wonderful and the design is great.

These are from January 11th. That Dark Web cover and two more homage variants. The Moon Knight one being another Nakayama cover.

These are from January 18th. The top four are just late issues and the bottom four are late homage variants. And below this is the Nightwing variant that I forgot to include in the photo.

Acetate covers are pretty cool to see.

The last issue of Han & Chewie had Chewie falling off a moving train, so, we’ll see how that works out. This issue of Wakanda has my attention because I want to know more about Tosin. Things are getting crazy in Immortal X-Men. Also, Strange has been really exciting. Frank is going one-on-one with Ares. I can’t remember what’s happening in Hulk. I’m wondering what the conflict will be between Tony and Riri. I’m very happy to see more Wasp. Janet has appeared in in Nadia’s comics and I’m glad they’re both going to be in this. More Dark Web issues. Avengers Assemble continues to barrel through everything, its a crazy war. Always happy to read another issue of the Harley animated title. More mind-swapping madness with Batgirls, though I need to get the A cover next time I get comics. This is the last issue of Mary Marvel’s miniseries. This issue of Lazarus Planet has Dreamer in it, so I can’t wait to get to it. And finally, that is the 100th issue of Nightwing!

I wasn’t sure about getting these variants, but I did like this cover when I saw it in person even more, so I decided to get the set.

I don’t get this artist’s covers often, but I really liked this one. It’s one of those artists where you know you’d get every cover they do but that would be way too many, haha.

I really like Tosin’s character in design and as a character, so had to get this.

I always try to get covers with Riri on them, so this arc was a happy surprise for me. And another for the hall of armor set! I have no idea how I’ll display this set, it’s a lot of covers!

Another Dauterman collage! Love these covers.

Another of these decades half covers for this event. I really have no idea what these will all look like.

Two more homage covers! I didn’t realize what the Immortal X-men cover was based on at first, haha. That’ll be in the collection post, if you can’t guess.

Another glorious Artgerm cover!

Dreamer! As brought to life by the wonderful Jen Bartel.

The wraparound variant for Nightwing 100. Love this so much! Y’all know I love covers that show character legacy. Also, this run of Nightwing has been amazing.

Again, not read any of these yet.

Black Cloak I initially got just for the variant cover by Peach Momoko, but I also read what the issue was about and thought I’d read it too, so beyond what I read, and I can’t remember what that was, I know nothing else about this title. As always, Vader has been great, so I assume this issue will be no different. the arc in Ghost Rider is coming to a head. I know that Logan is having a hard time via Beast’s machinations. Also, I really don’t like the version of Beast that’s been in the comics for the past decade or two. But I see the character in the characterization of his counterpart from the X-Men Animated Series, so, I’m a bit bias. I’m excited to get to X-Men because I think we’ll finally get an update on what’s going on with Laura and Laura and all that confusion. The last Carnage issue ended in a way that confused me, so I hope that things might be clarified in this issue. T’Challa is just continuing to have a bad time. Can’t wait to get it Daredevil! Same for Monica’s journey. And of course there are more issues from Dark Web, which will be over by the next NCBD posts I make.

I can’t quite remember what was going on in Wonder Woman, but Wonder Girl is stopping by, so that’s always fun. This Flash issue is the first in a new arc called the One Minute War. I am indeed intrigued. This is the last issue of Batman: Urban Legends, though I think there is another title that will start that has a similar anthology theme in a couple months. Here’s a new run of the Batman: The Animated Series comic. This surprised me when I saw that it was dropping this week when I was adding to my subscriptions a couple months ago. And the Lazarus Planet event has started for DC.

Covers below

As mentioned before, this is the Momoko cover. I liked that there was a chromatic theme of pink to this. Usually her covers are the image surrounded by white or a full cover of something, this was a nice difference.

This is the A cover and one of the variants for this Vader issue. The A Cover is another Razzah cover. And the variant is the 40th Anniversary ROTJ cover. With these movie anniversary covers when they’ve come, I certainly don’t get all 40 covers, I think I’ve stuck to getting the fist and last ones. Though I can’t remember what I did for the ones that we got in 2017 and 2020.

This was an odd cover to see. It is paying homage to the iconic Days of Future Past cover, but it’s an A cover. I certainly thought that with this month being homage variant cover month that this would have been the homage variant for this issue, but nope. But yeah, many seemed to have been slain last issue, so we’ll see what’s up in this issue.

This variant I hadn’t intended on getting but it was but in my pile and the more I looked at it, the more I liked it. So I just went for it. The details and stunning.

These variants for Lazarus Planet are great. The first one is a Mattina cover and I think it’s been a while since I’ve picked up one of his covers. He’s a fantastic artist. The other one was another variant that was in my box that I didn’t intend to be there but I ended up liking it enough to keep it. Though I do have another variant for this issue coming.

This tile has been a great way to tell many stories involving the bat-family, and others, at once. I mean pretty much all these characters and more. It was a great choice for an A cover for this final issue.

And this variant for it was fantastic. Even if it’s not a full movie poster cover, it’s close enough.

The next Dark Web covers. Every week that wasted web design (pun not intended) frustrates me!

The next homage covers. Hopefully, I can figure out which classic covers all of them are from by the time I do the collection post.

This is another wonderful Nakayama cover! The way he shades and lights his colors on his covers is just so well done. Every time!
