I'm going with Allards cover also!

So far, I don't see a Byrne variant cover for this book. He was there in 1986, for the big revamp of superman Time was he would have been guaranteed the1980s cover slot.

I don't think Byrne is on good terms with DC, hence his absence. Same reason Waid doesn't have anything to do with this.

And neither Alex Ross.

Midtown Comics EXCLUSIVE Oliver Coipel variant cover

I really wish they would show us what this looks like. I'm really tempted.

I also can imagine the announcement of a 6 issue miniseries written by an ex Marvel comics superstar that is being touted as a redefinition of Superman called " Man of Steel" with the same logo used on his series may just guarantee that DiDio, Lee, Johns and Bendis are officially off Byrne's Christmas card list, if they ever were on said list. I'm surprised he hasn't publicly cried plagerism since all of this was announced.As far as I'm aware he's uncharacteristically quiet about these recent developments

Indeed, probably has to be one of the best ways to annoy him, if he cares. I don't really think he gets all that loud about it anyway. I mean I never see interviews so much as get his feedback by lurking his forum.

Alex Ross is a surprise though. I wouldn't have guessed he was on bad terms to the point where he wouldn't draw something like this.

He recently did the DC Shadows series, so maybe he isn't? He also does Astro City covers... but I dunno. It would really be a shame if he doesn't get a #1000 cover.

The Fabok cover is my favorite but it’s a retailer exclusive. I really wish it was one of the regular varients. Maybe I can find a poster or print of the image. It’s really beautiful. Superman, the symbol of hope and justice, shinning through the darkness and gloom.

Not a cover for Action 1000, but Sean Phillips (currently drawing variants for The Hellblazer) mentions a Superman 1000 month in the replies to this tweet, making me think the rest of the DC's variants or at least some for the month of 1000 will be Superman themed.

Officially put in my pre-order for the Steve Rude and Mike Allred covers. I don't normally ever do these, but if any comic can, it's Action #1000. Still hoping for a special Alex Ross cover.

I BELIEVE he has an exclusive with Dynamite. Marvel convinced Dynamite to let him do one cover a month for them. I think Astro City is a written-in exemption.
