Forgive the rant. This trend of drawing Mr. Fantastic with the extended neck really needs to stop. He's not the Elongated Man, and why they're making him look this silly is beyond me.

And get rid of that stupid beard. He's had it long enough. More importantly get rid of all those kids.

Don't forget the extended fingers. Only one excited bout that would Be Sue. Only ones I kept from that wave was was Super Skrull, Dr Doom & Ben cuz I never found the Walgreens version. Waiting on this JB FF version with "in scale" Thing. Ben is 6 ft tall, not 7 ft tall! Matter fact, Byrne had him listed as being 5'10 but I think 6ft is perfect. The Thing is thick n wide, not tall. Sue needs to be on a smaller female buck as well. Need this version of the Torch.

Cool to see Covers, I especially like Spider-Woman onebut it always felt like cheating when you see suchcovers but events you see never materializeon the pages of an actual comic book.

Man I had no idea, altho i do recall seeing some of those shown on here at one point or another. I guess its been THAT long since I last bought and read a comic. What a weird world. "Back in my day" covers used to indicate what was going on in the comic itself.. hehe. XD

Covers have been lying since the start of Hero comics

That's just how modern variant covers work. Have a series of variant covers with each series' protagonist(s) reimagined as Venom, have them reimagined as Carnage, have them reimagined as Gwen Stacy,have them recreate hip-hop albums, have them team-up with Deadpool because it's his birthday, have them reimagined as babies, have them reimagined as cats, have them fight Conan, have them fight Aliens, have them reimagined as 2099 characters, have them reimagined as zombies, have them reimagined as action figures, have them not appear in the cover at all and instead highlight a different character who is the theme of the variant series, and... have them fighting the Predator.

And yes, all of these examples were real series of variant covers. I would give Marvel crap about all the variants they put out if the true root of the problem wasn't the collectors that eat them up and asks for seconds.

The Guardians cover is pretty cool. I think I'll wait to see if a Punisher cover is revealed.

I didnt fully realize these are just Predator being included on the covers.. That seems so random to me. Why have them on the cover if they arent in the book/story? And yeah if they are being included, they are most likely coming at some point. Why advertise them on covers randomly if they arent showing that theres more to come of this.

Keep in mind these are just variant covers, but you know its only a matter of time until they do some kind of crossover story in the comics.
