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.
The New Warriors were a group of teen-heroes for the 1990s that was a ton of fun with great writing by Fabian Nicieza and art by Mark Bagley. The team was made up of Nova, Namorita, Speedball, Marvel Boy, Firestar and Night Thrasher. Psionex was a group of villains they faced off against and, in Annual #4, they decided to go straight and be a new team of super-heroes.
