    Meh...another rivalry between Marvel vs DC for special variant cover. If this variant cover is for october they might win because DC october theme is Halloween and Monster which is terrible idea imo but...since this is on November , then I'm sorry DC variant cover theme is Lego for November and Silver Age Darwyn Cooke for December which is spectacular and amazing

    I don't buy variant covers, but I'm tempted to cave and buy some of these.

    If ya really think about it: it's a Racoon and a Tree. That's two of the least cosmic things I can think of. Am I the only one who finds these non-clever and non-pretty?

    I love Rocket and Groot, but they really are shoving them down our throats. Not specifically with these variants, but in general

    It's everything I've ever wanted in a Marvel book (and it just might be my new avatar).

    I love the Hulk and Guardians ones, but I think Marvel may have been better off going for the bigger cash grab by releasing these when the Guardians movie had just opened instead of a few months later.

    Anyway, pretty pictures!
