April 3
It is Good Friday. Last night, I came back from buying my comics in the Quad Cities, and I drove through a shelf cloud. It was something I had never experienced before. It was clear and then it was as if I had hit a wall as the rain fell. I can go a long time without doing that again.
Also-Rans: Tyler Rake: An Extraction Story #1, Wonder Man #1, Alien: King Killer #1, and venom #256 (B cover).


Bronze Medalist
Daredevil #1
Cover art by Lee Garbett
The brand new Daredevil series kicked off with a great A cover and a bunch of blind bag variants. The variants I have at this point do not match up with this classic DD cover from Lee Garbett.


Silver Medalist
Kilroy is Here #1
Variant Cover B
Cover art by Brian Bolland
The variant cover for the new one-shot featuring Kilroy is a beautiful black and white version with our returning character. It is a compelling cover for a fun issue.


Gold Medalist
Narco #1
2nd Printing
Cover art by Daniel Hillyard
Typically I do not worry about picking up 2nd printings of comics, but this cover just was so awesome that I had to have it. This second printing of the Narco #1 cover is better than the original.
