    Default 80th covers

    So there is going to be a bunch of variant covers that go together. I'm only interested in one of them, does anyone have a list of what cover goes with which series? I didn't see a post for this, so sorry if there was or is one XD. I did a search and didn't see one.

    Here is the cover:

    Here is the series:

    1. Amazing Spider-Man #13

    2. Avengers #12

    3. Captain America #7

    4. Champions #1

    5. Fantastic Four #6

    6. Immortal Hulk #11

    7. Thor #9

    8. Tony Stark: Iron Man #8

    9. Venom #10
    Pulls:
    Coffin: La Muerta, Lady Death, Hellwitch. Valiant: Shadowman. DC: Poison Ivy.

    I very much dig those covers. The only one I'd make any effort to grab would be the 2000s variant however. I'm glad that the series/characters that got me hooked are getting some acknowledgement by Marvel.

    I'm not sure which cover goes with which series, I think an earlier article that was posted in the old YA appreciation thread might have had it.
    Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.

    Immortal X-Men - Once & Future- X-Cellent - X-Men: Red

    Nobody cares about what you don't like, they barely care about what you do like.

    Okay, found the one I wanted. Thor #9 is the one that has Cloak and Dagger haha. I called my comic store and they helped me out.

    I just picked up Champions #1 for the 40s cover with Namor and Torch.
    Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

    That's the 1930s cover (which incidentally, shouldn't have been released, as that cowboy is Charlton's 1950s Masked Raider - who ought to be owned by DC - and not Marvel's). The 40s one is the one with Captain America and Patsy Walker.

    Yeah, that's actually the 1930s cover.

    Here's the page where we were discussing the covers on a previous, now locked thread (starting at post #725):

    Have we clarified if DC bought that version of the Masked Raider / ALL of Charlton's available properties, or just a few of Marvel's old "Action Heroes" that Dick Giordano had been involved with?
    (Remember, DC doesn't own things like E-Man or the earlier Peter Cannon, Thunderbolt.)

    Sorry, yes, the 30s cover.
