| I always enjoy his art and these covers are no different. I especially like cover B in this set. But the frequency at which they've been coming out lately seems to be helping me realize that I don't really need all of them. I will likely skip these ones for now. |

| I like them but im bored of all these variants now from every artist/store with slight changes. Every week theres a new $99 'must have' set. I do love some of the artwork but id rather pay a higher price for something unique and a true rarity than them being churned out on a conveyor belt. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by rtdcomics I agree. I look forward to picking up a lot of these variants for a "nickle" on Ebay and in dollar bins in the coming years. |

| Love the art but im in with @rtdcomics, these cover sets are coming out every week, and some of the companies that are putting out these covers are asking an arm, kidney, and maybe a liver depending on what set you are going to purchase. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Abrowncoat One of his better ones. Agreed on the frequency of variant releases. It feels like there are more variants released every week than there are actual comic issues. |

| When Hastings went out of business, I had pulled plenty of variants out for pennies. | ||

| I love JSC's art style, definitely going to be picking up the 3 pack, probably go with the signed copies. Really like the old man Logan, the original suit and the yellow highlight suit wolverine variations. He also tends to do remarks on a few of each cover to randomly insert in to people's orders. The Elektra series had some really cool Kingpin, Bullseye and Daredevil remarks. Discount code for 15% off is XMENGOLD1 if anyone else is thinking about picking them up. |

| I love Campbells work but it's getting hard to keep up along with everything else. The price on these has been creeping up too | ||

| And the colour is done by Peter Steigerwald of Aspen MLT, so you know it's going to be tight! | ||

| I am debating whether or not to sell it. Raw is going for around $50 on eBay. If I sell it, I will probably grade it first. |

I'm torn between signed vs unsigned. I like the way the sig looks on these covers, but then that's an extra $75 cost to get them slabbed with red labels. Decisions.  |

| @DarthLego out of the most artist that do modern covers, J Scott Campbell has a very clean signature, and its well placed most of the time. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by OrbitCityComics No problem. Those later Witchblade microprint variants are really cool. I have the Midtown #94 limited to 300, plus some others, like the variant error #76. I also have the prototype Stone Museum cover...the very first one the Jays did.  |

| My opinion is that JSC is highly overrated. I liked his stuff for a bit but he hasn't grown or matured in any way for many years now. | ||
