Not sick of these threads at all. I really appreciate them. I would love to have a database that had all the retailer/convention covers documented. (The Valiant database is good but is missing things.

Ashley Witter's Doctor Aphra covers were amazing. Her Ninjak cover is pretty sweet.

"Prism is a dancer" -- my best guess is Ninjak will show us his dancing moves under blacklight.

Good question.

Based on the rather flat (cover) artwork by Javier Pulido and the missing video clip it's really hard to tell what "prism" exactly stands for???

Okay, so the comic-watch guys just forgot to list it on their site.....and my OP is still accurate.

Thanks, Gregg. :thumb:

Those covers are nice. Too bad the interior art isn't as good. I just can't get into the child-like art.

Maybe, the term "prism" is slightly misleading here. It's more like "plexi" glass.

According to the guy from Exchange Collectibles the main difference is Ninjak's glass cover will be much lighter and more sturdier and as such it will be the first Valiant Glass cover CGC should be willing to touch, grade, and slab.
