#7 and #8 are available on comixology. It's not the same but I'm not sure yet whether or not I am (or will be) willing to pay 60 bucks (plus p&p to Germany) for these issues? How many copies were printed?

I know a while ago we were all laughing about the cover for Dynamite's new Turok: Dinosaur Hunter looking just like one of the Valiant covers from the old series.

EDIT: Hahaha, how long has it automatically put "sucks" if you put Dynamit e?

Not a comic cover, but definitely an homage to VEI Shadowman #19 (the Aerosmith issue)!

Their homage cover doesn't count here cuz Dynamite! :)

Perhaps as long as they're holding the rights to the Gold Key characters perhaps?

Interesting! Where's this from? I'm familiar with the Sound of Thunder variant covers as well as their exclusive CD covers featuring SM and Master Darque but I haven't seen this one before.

Arise, chicken, arise.

This one almost slipped by me. I think it *might* just be a Deathmate homage cover.

Local Man: Gold (One-shot) by Image comics, solicited for release August 30.

This is actually a really fun book. It’s a mix of a “modern” superhero fallen from grace story and homage 90s nostalgia flashbacks in the form of a flip-book! Also some awesome 90s homage covers.

Hahaha.... looking pretty cool.... for a Deathmate homage cover.

They should delay its release on purpose.
