The trade dress is a little throwback. Sorta. I think I like it.

Thanks for posting these. I really like the covers. I might try to track down the OA for one of them.

I still can't decide whether or not I like the nose part?

On one hand I think it looks kinda cool, on the other hand I'm still like "where's the *SQUEE* nose?"

This man was a genius. Check out his homepage.

He died in April 2020 at the age of 76.


RIP, Señor Giménez!

ASOT by someone
(Not much of a fan anymore)

It's not officially announced yet, it's by Paul Pelletier, it's an Iron Maiden homage, there's a VH1 throwback trade dress variant, it rules, and we'll post about it soon. I'll be sure to post it here once it's public on all the band channels.
(Cool.)

Like that cover. Link does seem to work. Couldn’t find that book on their site as advertised.

That Clayton Crain cover is cool, but talk about ominous. Acclaim title font ... I enjoyed that series but Acclaim was not the success you want to emulate.. :lol:

We asked for a "classic"/"throwback" trade dress variant with our exclusive. The mock up came back with the Acclaim logo. We had that switched to the VH1 logo right quick! Not sure if there are any other VH1 logo variants for this issue. Anyone know?

2 more exclusive covers from Unknown Comics (by Marco Mastrazzo) and The Comic Mint (by John Gallagher).

Mastrazzo's looks dope and could be a connecting cover for issues #1-4.

Jenny Frison's may do exclusives for #1-4 as well.

That's a bunch of covers. I have to say my fav is that sorta throw-back to the Acclaim age of Valiant.
