Spider-Gwen #2 - All Covers

Hi Everyone,

After the popularity of my last Spider-Gwen post I decided to follow it up with a complete list of Spider-Gwen #2 covers so far. Thank you to the writer, Jason Latour, for retweeting my previous article. :D

The regular Spider-Gwen #2 cover is illustrated by interior artist, Robbi Rodrigeuz.


Marvel have also announced a Sara Pichelli variant which was featured in Marvel Previews. This is one of my absolute favourite pieces of Spider-Gwen art. I think this cover will be 1:25.

 
 
Mike Deodato Midtown Comics Exclusive Variant.

 
We were lucky enough to meet Mike Deodato alongside Will Conrad in Coliseum of Comics, Florida. They were both very nice and Mike signed my Amazing Spider-Man, Sins of Past, graphic novel. This features a very controversial story which tells a new but dark story from Gwen Stacy's past.
 
Gerald Parel Comic Xposure Exclusive Variant.
  • This can be found directly on their website.
 
J Scott Campbell Emerald City Comic Convention Exclusive

 
Opena's #2 Dynamic Forces Variant
  • This cover can be found directly on the Dynamic Forces website and has 66% off until 01/04/2015.
 

This comic is not out until 11th March 2015 but if any more Spider-Gwen #2 variants are announced I will post them here. Please leave a comment if you know of a variant that is not posted here. :)
 
You saw it here first, thanks for reading!

Harley Quinn Variants

Hi Everyone,

Today's blog post is all about the recent Harley Quinn series. When I was little I used to watch and love the Batman Adventures TV series. In the episode, 'Joker's Favour', Harley Quinn first appeared and since then she has been my favourite DC character. Since the Arkham games Harley Quinn has really grown in popularity which means there is a whole lot of merchandise for her, including her new comic book series which made it's debut on my 18th birthday!

In this post I am going to go through my Harley Quinn (2013) variants.
