June Cover Previews

Is it just me, or are Marvel's covers superior from month to month over the ones from DC?

Skaar: Son of Hulk # 1 by Carlo Pagulayan:
Portrait of an angry young man.

Guardians of the Galaxy # 2 by Clint Langley:
Who needs the Ent-wives? We found Cap's shield!

Nova # 14 by Alex Maleev:
I'm just getting hooked on this title in time for a Surfer appearance. Lucky me.

Ms. Marvel # 28 by Greg Horn:
Is that the X-Men-in-1 Skrull with Thor's Hammer?! No matter. Ms. Marvel can take him/her/it. Or can she? Purchase it and find out.

newuniversal: shockfront # 2 (of 6) by Brandon Peterson:
I'm happy that this series is coming back! Check out the first six issues, just out in paperback, if you haven't already. (Should be a nice treat for Heroes or even Lost fans.)

Young Avengers Presents # 6 (of 6) by Jim Cheung:
Like an aging veteran news anchor, Hawkeye will probably eventually lose his place to some hot younger woman.

Booster Gold # 10 by Dan Jurgens and Norm Rapmund:
Threatening me with a firing squad to buy this?

Green Arrow/Black Canary # 9 by Cliff Chiang:
Body surfing.

Indiana Jones and the Tomb of the Gods # 1 by Tony Harris:
I wonder if this will be an ongoing series (like the Star Wars titles).

Expect to see the cover for Usagi Yojimbo # 113 in the July edition (though you can already see it here, if you are anxious).

I didn't wait for all the smaller, slower publishers this time (like Dynamite and IDW). If they come out with something, and I notice, I might add them later.

Update (3/31/2008): Added links for Dynamite and Avatar.

May Cover Previews

Avengers/Invaders # 1 (of 12) by Alex Ross:
The Invaders had two Torches? No wonder the Nazis lost.

X-Factor: The Quick and the Dead by Boo Cook:
Daredevil made it through his jail time (as Matt), but it doesn't look so good for Quicksilver, does it?

Detective Comics # 844 by Dustin Nguyen:
Batman has enough cape for two.

Wonder Woman # 20 by Aaron Lopresti:
I like this as a wallpaper with Wonder Woman peeking over the bottom of the screen and the action poses in the background. Try it!

Usagi Yojimbo # 112 by Stan Sakai/Tom Luth:
(View cover before coloring, as revealed at the Usagi Yojimbo Dojo.)

Usagi Yojimbo Vol. 22: Tomoe's Story by Stan Sakai:
Psst... Usagi, this is Tomoe's Story. So get off the cover!
