Mel V.'s Variant Picks Of The Week For 9/7/16

Its Mel V. with Variants Picks of the Week.  Fresh of a FANTASTIC time in the city of Baltimore and Baltimore comic con (I will have my write up very soon.) You know I really have to say thank you to all who take the time to read my articles. I still can’t believe it when someone comes to me and says, “Hey Mel, I love reading your stuff. ” Thats a pretty awesome feeling that I dont think I would ever get tired of. So once again thank you for the support. I can not believe that summer is over already and the first week out of Summer we get laced with some great variants, let’s lets get into it.

Daredevil Vol 5 #11 Cover B Variant Alex Maleev Defenders Cover  – Maleev is an artist that’s on the super rise and that is starting to get noticed more and more. His work contains some great detail, as you can see, with this deep and dark cover ..Love it

 Doctor Strange Vol 4 #11 Cover C Incentive Adam Hughes Variant Cover – Hughes with back to back picks of the week. Its good to see Hughes on consecutive weeks with what will be a hard to find gem, this is an absolute buy and hold situation if you can find them

Evil Ernie Godeater #2 Cover B Variant Kyle Strahm Cover -Friend of the site, Kyle Strahm, blessed Evil Ernie with this cover. Mr Strahm really brings out the Evil in Ernie on this cover..he looks INSANE

Harley Quinn Vol 3 #3 Cover B Variant Bill Sienkiewicz Cover – If anyone from DC is reading. We would not mind paying premium for these awesome Bill Sienkiewiz covers, but thank you for making them cover price.This is a great cover for fans of Harley and Walking Dead. A nice little zombie mashup

Moon Knight Vol 8 #6 Cover B Variant Christian Ward Story Thus Far Cover – By far the best Story Thus Far cover.  Love the look and feel

Silk Vol 2 #12 Cover B Incentive Cosplay Variant Cover – I know, I know. These were so bad last year l, but this one… Nothing to do but go up this time around..and this one isnt bad

Skybourne #1 Cover C Incentive Brandon Peterson Virgin Variant Cover – Ya gotta love Frank Cho’s style. I had a chance to read the book over the weekend. It should be on a lot of reviewers lists as ones to pick up tomorrow.

  1. No love for the Geoff Darrow variant on Skybourne 1? I’m getting some Shaolin Cowboy signed by Mr. Darrow on Sunday at RCCC.

  2. I agree with you on that Silk cosplay cover. That is nice, and they really were horrible last year.

    1. Her name is Rian Synnth, She is so hawt, I was so freaking shy to talk to her at Phoenix Comic Con. I swear, I couldnt even approach her I was blushing so hard. 🙂

  3. I really like that Moon Knight “Story Thus Far” variant as well…I may have to get that one in addition to the Moon Knight classic variant. Also, my LCS got a copy of the Dr. Strange 1 in 50 Adam Hughes variant but it’s already spoken for…priced @ $34.99. While it’s certainly nice, and I’d love to have it in my collection, not eager to spend that much even if it were available.

    1. $35 is not a bad price for a 1:50, really. IF my LCS has it tomorrow, I’m expecting it to be around $50 or more. I was supposed to call them tonight to ask about it but I’m too lazy.

  4. i am so diging that silk #12 cos play cover. I put it on next weeks top 20. I only wish it was one of my cos players on the cover. I will have to snag the moon knight cover as well forgot about it blind adam out

    1. Her name is Rian Synnth, She is so hawt, I was so freaking shy to talk to her at Phoenix Comic Con. I swear, I couldnt even approach her I was blushing so hard. She is bad, as in bad in a good way..

      1. The cosplay covers this year are much better in terms of the outfits at least looking like a lot of effort was put into their creation. I have zero art or crafting-skills, but some of the outfits in last years pictures looked like they were held together with duct tape and a dab of Elmer’s glue.
