What’s Up CHU. Thanks for reading. Boy last week was a roller coaster ride with the variants Black Widow, Punisher, and Moon Knight. They were all beauties..that Black Widow was definitively a tough one to attain . This week will be a little bit more gentle on the wallet lets get into it …

Best one in my opinion was the Spider Man from Jamal Campbell This weeks best cover is the Black Panther by Jamal Campbell. He’s really starting to make a name for himself. These AOA variants will make a nice set.

Silk Vol 2 #8 Cover B Variant John Tyler Christopher Action Figure Cover– Silk is Worthy? I have to admit she looks great with the Helm and The Hammer. Could this be something in the future similar to Gwenom and Gwenpool, or just a sweet cover mashup? Time will tell…

  2. ‘I mean its a freaking beautiful cover, but its just something about it thats turning me on.’ There, fixed that for you Mel.

  3. I have yet to see Civil war, but my friends say that Black Panther is the coolest new character introduced to the MCU. Wonder if the movie will boost demand for the books.

    1. I believe they will ..spider-man also..be sure to check out my latest Houduni variant article coming in a couple days

    2. Black Panther has rocketed to the top of my son’s favorite list due to the Disney Infinity character and meeting Brian Stelfreeze. It was cemented when he saw the movie.
