Beautiful cover! Although half the team is missing...
I wonder when Marvel will show Skottie Young's Marvel Babies Variant Cover for this first issue. All of his covers for the first issues of Marvel NOW have been great so far.
He's an amazing artist. And he's also a very nice guy; I met him at a comic con in Brazil and Deodato was nice to everyone there (and showed a great sense of humor with his comments).
This book will get a good number of variant covers, right? Coipel's (well, his is the official cover, actually), Dodson's, Brooks's, Deodato's, Young's (which still needs to be shown), that one with Deadpool and zombie-fied Beatles...
Feels like a strategy to increase sales. I hope this first issue sells very well (hopefully above 100 thousand copies)... and that the other issues sell just as well, too! I'd say I also hope it is a good book, but with Wood and Coipel working on it, how could it be anything but fantastic??
I don't know if you have already seen this, but Young finally showed his cover for X-Men #1 (and it's adorable!): http://skottieyoung.com/post/49855268012/x-men-1-young-variant-no-boys-allowed
And there's also a Midtown exclusive variant cover, drawn by J. Scott Campbell: http://www.midtowncomics.com/store/dp.asp?prid=X-Men+Vol+4+%231+Midtown+Ex_1256023
That means so far this first issue will have SEVEN covers!! And I love them all (well, except the one with Deadpool...)!
There are currently 13 variants for Xmen 1: 50th Skottie Hastings Midtown Dodson Manera Blank Dynamic Forces Mile High McGuinness Dragon's Lair Phantom Dead Pool
At least that's what I am aware of. Now, can ANYONE tell me what the ratios are?!?

I don't care for the Skottie Young variants. They don't even look like babies to me.
ReplyDeleteI really think Mike Deodato wins Best Improvement for superhero artists. He's come so far from the silly "bad girl" art he used to do.
