Connecting Covers #36 Justice League

Filed under: Connecting Covers — Doorman @ 8:15 am

A fun aspect of comic books is that sometimes their covers combine to make an even larger image. Here’s a look at some connecting covers.

In the mid 1980s, the Justice League of America membership was a far cry from what we’re used to. No Superman … Batman … Wonder Woman …. Nope. In this version, the team is rounded out with Vibe, Vixen, Steel the Indestructible Man and Gypsy. The covers fit together very poorly (the tops of the bottom two issues don’t match the bottoms of the top – you can see stuff gets covered up)

A fun aspect of comic books is that sometimes their covers combine to make an even larger image. Here’s a look at some connecting covers.

Painkiller Jane debuted in the pages of 22 Brides and quickly moved on to her own series, published by Event Comics in 1997. In December 2005, SciFi adapted the character into a made-for-tv movie that led to a single-season television series. With the newly-acquired attention, Dynamite Comics launched a second Painkiller Jane comics series. By the time they followed that up with her third series, they had also acquired the rights to publish Terminator comics and both characters were thrown together in a crossover story. The story continued into Terminator 2 #6 – both variants combine into the image below.
