Savage Dragon #225 WHAT THE HECK!?!?3911

Collector jdangerc private msg quote post Address this user
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!

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user
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.

No it's uncensored. It had a plain white cover on it saying "Retailers display at your own risk" or something like that.

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 was a huge long thread about this very book weeks ago.

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 ordered one, but I also collect raunchy covers.

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.

No 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?

The title isn't in the top 300 books list of monthly sales volume.

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.

CBCS said they will not grade it in another thread.

This is due to the cover content and not the size of the comic.

I received my copy yesterday. I can assure you, this cover absolutely violates all of CBCS's delicate sensibilities.

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!

Does that mean that the censored round stamps aren't on the published cover and the one shown in the thread is for press material?
