Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed #50 Savage Tales

Filed under: Swiped: Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed! — Doorman @ 8:19 am

After looking at hundreds of comic book covers, it becomes quickly apparent that not every cover is 100% original. Whether done intentionally or even underhandedly, there’s something about uncovering these “swipes” that adds a new element of fun to reading and collecting comics.

Savage Tales debuted the Man-Thing and featured some Conan the Barbarian and Ka-Zar stories, amongst others. The combination of Deadpool and Headpool made this an ideal cover to swipe for their buddy comedy series!
