Wow, outstanding variants in the mix there for this one. I like 'em all. Though I gotta admit my favorites are:
Rob de la Torres' Conan and Belit:
And Rebecca Puebla's Belit, done in the style of a 1920's film star/1920's pulp cover.

Yes, Von K, those two you selected are the best of the bunch.
Very beautiful and fine rendition of Bêlit in those two.
I like them both and does not care for the others.

Ditto on the Rob de la Torres' Conan and Belit. Well executed.

Rebecca’s harkens back to Belit’s possible inspiration Lili Damita

Yeah, the covers by Torre and Rebecca Puebla look great. This is the 2nd disappointing cover by Zircher, the Sharp cover is an old one, I think. Deadato's cover is poor.
This issue should be coming out the same week as the CtB omnibus volume 1 reprint.

Rebecca’s harkens back to Belit’s possible inspiration Lili Damita Well observed and almost certainly correct I'd say.
That photo is from the 1929 film The Bridge of San Luis.
You're probably already familiar with that johnnypt but just thought I'd post it here for reference. Fairly sure linefacedscrivener covered it in his thread too a few years back.

Great news. The only bad thing about it is that none of the covers selected for the trade paperback is good. Bad selection by Titan.

Here’s a weird thing. When I finally got to the comic shop last week, they only had three copies left. A different cover for each. These were the three that were left! I picked the Panosian.
Four issues (and change) is a little skimpy but at least it’s a few bucks cheaper than usual. Funny thing is it’s about the same price if you bought the issues individually.

Good update; thanks for that video! We'll see, but it's possible that come February I'll stop with the floppies and just get the collections... I think they missed an opportunity to put the Roberto De La Torres cover from Issue #0 on it, though... personally I'd probably try and get the Mike Mignola cover. Not because it's amazing, but I've always liked Mignola's art and the other two are just "meh" to my eyes. |

Certainly could have picked better covers , Dan's is _OK_ , I like Mignola but not on Conan and what's the point of having Brissa on a _Conan_trade. Should have used one of Rob's.
