…Ignoring the past few messages, at least people'll be able to pick up a copy of Transformers #1 with their deluxes, that's cool, I guess…

This……………….was not what I expected to read when I opened this thread. LOL

I remember when Joe Jusko did the Marvel Masterpieces card series in the mid 90s and I later saw a picture of a girl in a Playboy/Penthouse magazine that looked familiar and was able to match it up to one of his card arts down to the table and wine glass on it. Yep. As a teen, a picture of a sexy lady reminded me of Marvel trading cards. I was soooo popular lol.

Is this a record for most number of comic cover variants?

Tbf it’s not just porn he traces, but it’s just very egregious whenever you see a woman shout in his comics and if you look at it closely there’s a high chance that he’s tracing it over some screenshot of an actress getting piped

Shame my Gamestops almost never have a decent TF selection…

Lol, the signing was a few years back…I knew full well he had become a tracer…just he wasn't when he drew that particular book.

Haha, don't need to feel bad, you didn't know then. I may have sounded harsh, even if I put my comment in blue text. God knows most comic artists aren't paid enough, tracing might be a necessary time saving and learning/hacking trick of the trade. It's just that he's particularly hilarious at it.

I feel bad…I got Land to sign a copy of Birds of Prey #8 at a convention. Figured since he didn't (noticably) trace when he drew it, it was cool. But I've changed my feeling on that…
cloudballoon
You are insulting all real artists for associating Land with that word.
MeGrimlock78
True enough…I just like free stuff!

The GameStops around my area in the Toronto GTA doesn't sell comics. So I doubt they'll go through the hassle of stocking the comics specifically for this promotion in sync w/ the US. Besides, even if they do, the comic is not enough incentive to get me in the stores. I PO everything at its website since 2020, I really only go into the stores for PO pickups only. As and for the Skybound comics, I'm going the collected volumes or digital route instead.

Land moment

That particular artist has been well known for doing this for over a decade at this point, too.
MeGrimlock78
Er, Canada too? Probably not…since the comic would be English only.
octobotimus
I’m genuinely impressed in how shamelessly obvious that is.

I wasn't interested before, but now you have my attention.

To anyone who asks what comic this is, the issue number is right there in the photo, along with its name.

i don't really see it, personally.
