April 30

April is just about over, as we are less than six hours away from May 1st. That also means that we are just a few days from Free Comic Book Day, which is May 2nd. Make sure that if you are partaking for some of the free comics, you are indulging in some of the specials your local comic shop are offering. Free Comic Book Day is not free for the comic shops so they need your patronage.

Lots of good covers this week. This week, it is all variants.

Also-Rans: Giant-Sized Savage Tales #1, The Punisher #3, Dust to Dust #8, Exploit #2, Is Ted Ok? #3, Feral #22 (A Cover), Ripcord #3, White Sky #3, and Planet She-Hulk #6 (C cover variant).

Bronze Medalist

I Hate Fairyland #50

Variant cover C

Cover art by Skottie Young

Skottie Young has a variant cover for the 50th issue of I Hate Fairyland. I have not collected this book, but I have always enjoyed Skottie Young’s work and Todd made me buy it. I am curious to see what this is going to be like when I read it, but congrats to Skottie Young.

Silver Medalist

Uncanny X-Men #27

Variant Cover D

Cover art by Juan Ferreyra

I saw this on the shelf today and, while I had the A cover already, I had to have it. The beautiful red and yellow cover with the team of the Uncanny X-Men heading into action. This is a lovely piece of art.

Gold Medalist

Feral #22

Variant Cover B

Cover art by Tony Fleecs & Trish Forstner

The horror variants for Feral continue to be exceptional. This one is based on the movie Weapons. It also has a flip cover with the Stray Dogs on the other side. Always great work from Feral.
