I’d call that some good Deodato.
Seeing that X-Force cover kind of makes me see what he could do on the actual book
I love the Iron Man art. Sadly I don’t like him much as a solo character. I prefer him in a team setting (same goes for Thor).
They look like that initiative DC did a while ago with the white covers + single image + logos.
does anyone else think Marvel announced an Architects Variant JUST to piss off TheNextChampion?
@Ferrigno: For the win.
@WilliamKScurryJr Thank you, thank you! I’ll be here all week!
In all seriousness, I actually REALLY like that Iron man cover.
