Filed under: Swiped: Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed! — Doorman @ 11:54 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.

New X-Men paid homage to the tough guy pose of an Uncanny X-Men comic published 20 years earlier.
