Avengers: Age of Ultron (May 1st, 2015)

Shouldn't that read "May '15" ?

Lol but it's another reason I liked it. There will be a reason for it but I like it. Quirky

Almost a bit of a Lou Ferrigno vibe from that above HULK drawing.

I'm also thinking it's something they had to do as it's maybe not a Marvel endorsed item?

Plus in the UK it would actually be April

That smirk on Ultron in the second cover is mighty unsettling.

I was catching some of "Eraser" a couple weeks back, and was struck by the dated technology with the floppy disks and whatnot.

The CGI crocodile doesn't look too good either

Oh, I just saw your comment

 

[LexiKon318]

So do you think it was a hat tip to the old fold-out cover or a jab at Fox? Ha

Oh, I just saw your comment [emoji38]

Definitely a reference to the old X-Men cover. As usual, the X-Men innovates, and everyone else imitates.

 

[RIDDICK]

Marvel imitates some old popular X-men cover? Bloody bastards can't even create anything of their own!

 

[karamazov80]

I actually think it's pretty cool. That's got to be one of the three most well-known comic covers from that period (alongside Spider-Man #1 and the Death of Superman). Frankly, the Avengers never had a comic cover that important. It's a neat little reference to Marvel comics.

Doom patrol *cough* Doom patrol.



Well, I though Avengers #1 was pretty important, did the 1st Avengers had any references to that?

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Probably both, a had tip and a jab. It's like hey look, we're doing with other characters what you guys didn't do in 15 years! Oh, and good luck with all those black leather costumes

Doom patrol *cough* Doom patrol.

Spawn #1 was pretty famous too. And Knightfall, Batman #497, Bane breaking Batman in half Oh, and that Thanos The Infinity Gauntlet cover is pretty iconic too. I hope Marvel uses that as the main poster for the Infinity War film.

Hawkeye up front like he is gonna do something other than get his ass kicked.
