February 7, 2018: Best Comic Book Covers of the Week!
After watching Logan last night, I'm all about the comics today. Incidentally, I usually hate kids in movies, but this character - like Kick-Ass's Hit-Girl was an exception. A gleefully murderous exception. Anyway, onto my picks... Clue (cover art by Nelson Daniel) Love the fact that the color palette here offers a quick character reference…

My favorites... Allies #8 (cover art by Denis Popov) I'm a sucker for sci-fi and this cover is all kinds of intriguing in its premise of discovery. We are on the inside looking out of...what? A stasis pod, a ship, some sort of future medical iso unit? Who are we? WHAT are we? Coyotes #3…
