So a friend brings me a bunch of comics to trade and shows me this Savage Dragon #225. I am floored that this was printed by image. Now I must admit that it has been a while since I have read a Savage Dragon comic, but this cover variant made my jaw hit the floor. I was thinking if my wife saw that thing, she would divorce me quick! LOL Is this the norm with Savage Dragon now? I am obviously out of the loop. Cover has been HEAVILY censored! ![]() |

The series is rated M but with comics I am not sure that really means anything. There are three other covers to the book so this is not the regular cover you would see on the shelf at the comic book store. |

It comes polybagged like this: https://www.bleedingcool.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/SavageDragon225XXX-board-1199_351_540.jpg Still pretty darn crazy for a mainstream book from a major publisher! |

Does it come with the censored caps on it or is that just for the internets? I have one in my box waiting to be mailed from Jetpack Comics. | ||

I didn't know it was still being published. Strangely, I still don't care about the character or the series. | ||

Looks like a statement against censorship. Nope nothing objectionable about that. Why even ship them covered?![]() |

There's also an interview online where the artist explains why he made the cover. | ||

“Sometimes I do things just because it amuses me. Image has done a few NSFW covers of late, and while they certainly qualify as NSFW, they haven’t been especially raunchy. The thought of some reader unwrapping this from its plastic sheath and doing a spit-take makes me laugh,” said Larsen. | ||

I'm probably the biggest Savage Dragon collector out there, but there are things I truly don't want to see.... pass | ||

I found the uncensored version on eBay. I'm sure this is just a stunt to drum up sales on a book that is lagging. | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by DarthLegoNo argument from me with that. But if it was my book would I want it to sale because it had a good story and art and not a "shocking" cover. Either way money is being made on the book but how many of the new buyer will stick around for the next issue? |

I have one of these.... But my question is...... does anyone know if CBCS can slab it?? It's a pretty thick book. I'm thinking of sending it in to Trinity to have signed & graded but I would like to know if it can physically be slabbed or not first. | ||

I received my copy yesterday. I can assure you, this cover absolutely violates all of CBCS's delicate sensibilities. ![]() #looksprettycool |

I was gonna say... I've seen them take some of the nude Zenescope & eras covers he's done for his lady Joe's books. So I wasn't sure if that would be an issue or not. but I guess it is. Now I know! | ||
