Basically, I hadn’t finished the previous pile of comics, so I couldn’t take the photos or start this pile I got on the 9th.

We got AC and Batman annuals. There was the Omega issue of Shadow War and the JL Road to Dar Crisis special. Sweet Paprika 10 and all its variants (at least all the variants that I could get from my store). The order was wrong because I didn’t realize the black and white cover was the A Cover. Knights of X was continuing and Black Panther had a lot going on (plus that awesome Ms. Marvel variant!!). Captain Marvel’s Binary entity seemed to be starting it’s (her?) journey. Clea had many things to deal with. I’m excited for Carnage, since this story is still mysterious. Miles was about to start an adventure on a scary new earth. The Avengers Forever event continued and Vader and Sabé partnered up!!

Favorite variants below.

The more Peach Momoko art the world has, the better! Love her art so much! There will be another in the next post (FYI, there will be 14 images in the next post! XD).

Of course, as my favorite Marvel character, Anytime I see a cover with Kamala on it, I try to get one. So, this AAPI cover was a no-brainer.

I’m way late posting this week because it was Star Wars Celebration and I watched the livestream for the four days. Didn’t have time to take photos till yesterday (May 31).

The DC versus Vampires Hunters one-shot I got just for the cover. Wally wasn’t having a great time with things. We got the final issue of Teen Titans Academy. Things seem to be moving in Action Comics. We got the next two parts of Shadow War. I’m very happy that Unnatural got a new run! I’m interested in what’s happening with Liliana in her MTG title. Image Comics is making an anthology series for their anniversary and I got this issue for the cover but I may flip through it and maybe get the collected edition of this anthology if there are enough captivating stories. The Punisher story is intriguing. We got a new X-title called Legion of X. I’m wondering what is going on between Peter and MJ. Avengers has been going through a lot and I’m excited for it all! And we got the Devil’s Reign conclusion.

Favorite A covers and variant covers in latter images. Four A covers and four variants this time.

This is the variant for the final issue of Teen Titans Academy. I usually like getting variants of first and final issues of runs if I like if of the covers. Always love BB and Raven ^__^

This Moon Knight variant is another one of the AAPI variants like I got last time.

I always try to get a cover (A of variant) if it has Rose on it. love this variant.

Love an InHyuk Lee cover of course. It’s a plus that it’s a Daredevil-related A cover.

Another A cover that I loved the art from. I mean look at that!

I enjoy both of Jane’s superhero personas. This was just a great A cover of them both.

This I got just because Mirka Andolfo’s Paprika character was on the A cover.

And this Unnatural variant by Peach Momoko I bought online since it was an incentives cover and my store tends not to qualify for those.

I’m way late posting this week because it was Star Wars Celebration and I watched the livestream for the four days. Didn’t have time to take photos till yesterday (May 31).

This will be what I start reading today (June 1), hence I the past tense. Duo was suggested by my store, so I decided to see what it was. Though I do seem to remember these characters from something relatively recently, but I can’t place it. It’s a couple who have to share one body and become a hero. I’m excited for Nightwing since things have been getting interesting there. Shadow War continued. We got the next part in the Earth-Prime event. The next Marvel Voices issue came out. I’m intrigue by Juggernaut in the X-Force issue. X-Men Red and Immortal X-Men seem to be very tense. I’m happy to have the next issue of Iron Fist to learn more about what his journey will be as Iron Fist. Savage Avengers got a new run which I am excited for, though Marvel will soon lose rights to Conan, so he will have to be written out of the series soon. I think this is the last Eternals issue before Judgement Day, but I’m not sure. I’m excited for this Thor and Hulk crossover to continue. And we got the next issue in the Reckoning War event.

Favorites of the variant covers in latter images.

For the Immortal X-Men variant, I like the black and white contrast here and the art style it just amazing. for the Nightwing variant, it’s a Jen Bartel cover, I love the colors and the scene itself with the Bat-Family. And the Shadow War Zone cover is just an amazing tribute to the classic The Uncanny X-Men #141: Days of Future Past cover from 1981.

And of course, there’s another post-card variant I had to get. Loving these covers! Though I seem to have forgotten where I put the box I placed the others I got in for safe keeping till I could bag and board them. So, that’s causing my stress.

Posting these a day later than I usually would have because I just forgot to do this after taking the photos yesterday, haha.

Batgirl has been hosting a villain (an iteration of one) that was created in Batman Beyond, it’s a bit weird though since I’m just used to that being solely from that era, I don’t think they needed to create Spellbinder in the past, but eh. Son of Kal-El got an gorgeous AAPI cover. We finally got the next issue of the JL vs LSH mini-event. Halcyon Legacy gave us a cool Asajj Ventress variant. X-Men and the new Sam Wilson Capt run gave us the start of these postcard variants which I enjoy. And Shang-Chi got an AAPI variant too. We got the next issue of the Miles What If story. And to celebrate both Thor and Hulk’s 60th Anniversary, we got a crossover between their comics, of which I also got the wraparound variant. And I got three posters. I’m showing only two of them because one is going o be a gift and I don’t want to spoil it for my friend. I’ll post it here after I give it to them.

It’s always fun when we get two titles crossing over, and both Thor and Hulk have been having a very difficult time recently, so this should be interesting to read.

Love the colors on this cover. The shading is great.

I feel like these postcard variants should be displayed somehow, I’m not sure what I’ll do eventually, maybe in a folio. Hmm, we’ll see. Can’t wait to get the rest of them.

Last week’s issues. Getting the Legends of Tomorrow issue of Earth-Prime is bittersweet with the cancellation of the show. The next part of the Shadow War event dropped. Flashpoint Beyond started. And the aftermath of the Trial of the Amazons started with the official coronation of Nubia. I got that Marauders issue because of the Eric, The Red cover. Thunderbird got a Giant-size special. The Crimson Reign arc of Star Wars ended. We finally got the Obi-Wan Kenobi comic (for Star Wars Day)! Though it’s funny, that second cover (the Gist variant) is art that I’ve seen before, in 2018 I saved a promo image of that cover that I guess they never used for what it was supposed to be for, though I have a feeling this series was supposed to come out back then and they decided to wait till it coincided with the Disney+ series coming out. The Peach Momoko variant is also lovely, and I have the David Nakayama variant pre-ordered.

Oh look, the issues from day before yesterday! XD We got two more parts of the Shadow War event, the last part of the Trial of the Amazons event, and the Death of the Justice League this week for DC. And for Marvel: The Knights of Ren infiltrated Vader’s Castle; Punisher and Carnage continue their new runs; Knights of X started; Thor #750 dropped with the funeral of Odin; this run of Ms. Marvel finished (though there are a couple more stories starring her coming this summer!); and a new run of The Amazing Spider-Man started and I got some variants of the issue.

Also, I probably will pick out a couple of the variants from each week that I love from fave artists or characters etc. to have separate photos for.

The gorgeous Jee-Hyung Lee Silk variant. I mean look at this!! I had to get this.

This is also a beautiful variant. I mean, wow.
