Year None Cover Gallery, part 1 Thursday / 07.10.08 / 02:15PM / Joe / comments: 0
The new Ambush Bug miniseries starts at the end of this month and the covers for the first three issues have been revealed.
Issue 1, July 2008: The wait is over - everyone's favorite Bug is back, courtesy of the original AMBUSH BUG team of Keith Giffen and Robert Loren Fleming! Cities will be destroyed! Cats and dogs will live in sin! Every unanswered question of the DC Universe will be answered! Live heroes will die and dead heroes will live! Okay, none of that actually happens, but join us anyway for this totally irreverent romp through the DC Universe as only Ambush Bug could give you!
There's also a 1-in-10 variant cover for issue 1, but I haven't yet seen what that looks like. Probably the same but with a silver ink applied to the logo. Or a hologrammatic trading card of Cable.
Issue 2, August 2008: The second issue of our 6-issue romp through the DC Universe takes us on a mystic journey into space, where we encounter a new world and witness the return of Amber Butane -- all, like, irreverently! Irreverentially? Plus, find out what really happened when Ambush Bug met Blue Beetle!
The Amber Butane Corps, Ambush Bug's parody of the GLC! I always loved the little lighter insignia. Great Galactus/Silver Surfer style cover.
Also that month, DC is shipping a reprint book collecting some of the Bug's earliest appearances... so modern readers can watch Ambush Bug change from a d-list Superman villain to Giffen & Fleming's meta-commentary Mary Sue inside of two books.
Issue 3, September 2008: Darkseid makes a list and checks it twice! Plus, a shotgun wedding, alternate universes, more OMACs than you can shake a stick at and the very important return of Super-Turtle all wait for you in this all-new, all-ridiculous third issue.
Amanda Conner cover! Amanda Conner cover! Amanda Conner cover!
That's Dumb Bunny of the Inferior Five, of course. Don't know what the horseshoe ring on her finger means... unless that's really a U and she's engaged to Ultraman (the evil Superman of Earth-3).
