Continuing from Year None Cover Gallery, part 1, here's the rest of the naked covers DC has posted for the second half of the return of Ambush Bug.
Issue 4, October 2008: How can the DC Universe survive a year without Ambush Bug? This question may or may not be answered, cats and dogs may or may not live together, this copy may or may not make any sense and we may or may not take a journey through the world of 52.
From what I've seen of the initial books in this mini, "through the world of 52" will likely be a very loose promise. Not to mention that 52 itself was sort of scattershot and uneven... there will likely be very likely recognizably 52 elements in this book.
Although, as a Bug fan, it doesn't much matter to me.
Issue 5, November 2008: Infinite Omacs are just the start to yet another hilarious romp through the DC Universe with our favorite green bug. All this and the coveted recipe for Ma Hunkel's world-famous meatloaf! Yummers!
Hee hee! Kevin Maguire doing another Justice League International parody cover!
You can see the summaries falling apart by this point. Not even the DC marketing team has any idea what's going on.
Issue 6, December 2008: Our last issue of this stunning, award-winning literary masterpiece takes us deep into the mind of Ambush Bug. The other 21 pages will be just as exciting, we promise.
Dude. Darwyn Cooke Ambush Bug cover. I imagine that will be fully colored by the time it sees print; can't imagine DC doing a b&w Ambush Bug cover. That image just makes me wish somebody along the line had introduced the character into one DC's many animated universes. To date, the closest we've come is a cover Christopher Jones did for a fake issue of Justice League Adventures.
I'd even take the simplified Bat-Mite version of Ambush Bug, where he's just some fool who considers himself Superman's biggest fan... and then shows up to wreak innocent, unintentional havoc with the League.
