The one for Heroic Age is great. "Uh John, you were supposed to include Spider-Man..." "Ahhh poo poo. Well, I dunno there's a bit of space between Iron Man and Thor maybe."

You can say that about the other covers but you can't be serious that George Perez cover is terrible. Like what, other than maybe Thor's hammer, that is a kick rear end cover. I'd buy that as a poster.

Is Tigra hanging off Beast and what is Black Widow hanging from? I like Thor trying to land on/right in front of Wanda trying to blast someone.

He'd been crippled by the Hulk around this time so he took to using one of Professor X's yellow hover-chairs. I believe Pérez actually forgot to include him (and a couple of other characters) so he stuck them in wherever there was space left over).

It's a whole lot better than most of that type. I don't know what else you were expecting. When you hire Perez to do a cover for an ensemble book, you pretty much expect every team member in the picture for no real reason. (sidenote regarding the x-men collage, ha ha, look at all those covered up feet! )

Choco1980 posted:(sidenote regarding the x-men collage, ha ha, look at all those covered up feet! ) I count eleven feet if you don't include Lockheed's, and that picture's gotta have at least 40-odd people in it. That level of covering up is honestly kind of impressive.

The Moore/Davis/Delano issues have also been collected by Panini in this book and this one. Unfortunately, I don't think include either the UXM or New Mutants annuals Claremont wrote which featured the character.

It's obviously not as good as the Alan Moore stuff that precedes it, and I haven't read it in a few years so it may not hold up as well as I remember, but it's definitely worth the two dollars it's going for on Amazon for the art alone.

My favourite comic when I was little was Sonic the Comic, which I sperged over in the underrated runs thread. There were a few really great artists on the series and Richard Elson was probably the most prominent. He did this terrific version of Super Sonic as a fiendish killing machine, which was the focus of some of the comic's most popular stories. Check it out, from Sonic the Comic #80:  And from Sonic the Comic #81:
