| This has come up in passing a couple of times in other threads but it got me wondering about examples of cover art that is reused from one book to another, not to deride these books for any reason, but out of curiosity to see what kind of art is reused and on what books. I don't mean using the same cover on a reprint, foreign edition, or collected edition but when cover art is reused on a completely different book. I can see these books as a way of making popular cover art more widely available if they were originally used on books that are now highly priced or rare. I've identified a few examples House of M #2 - Dodson Cover  Avengers Annual #10 Legends Reprint  Captain Marvel #1 - Hughes Variant  Life of Captain Marvel (2018) #1 Unknown Comics Variant  Foreign books are a little different but I think this example applies: Harley Quinn #1 - Hughes Variant  Harley Quinn Special - LootChest Edition (reprints Harley Quinn Annual)  Do you guys know of other examples? |

| Any of Francesco Mattina’s art is ripped off from somewhere else. Does that count? There’s a lot of it! | ||

  These are for the same cover story (reprint) - years apart. There are other examples. I just don't own them. Note that different cover artists are credited according to CGC... |

 I bought a meat grinder on amazon for $60 and it's changed my life.

| @LeeK I wonder if they have different credits because they are colored slightly differently. Also, they don’t have to be books you own, I’m just curious to see examples of the practice |
