DC is doing a line-wide month of selfie variant covers in August, and Newsarama has posted the latest batch. This is the Flash #34 cover (click on the image for the full size), and it’s by Eddy Barrows and Eber Ferreira. I think it’s really fun, as are a lot of these! What do you guys think?
Is some part of the cover cut off? Only that as shown there it just looks like a regular picture of Flash beating Superman at a race, with Flash’s arm stretched out of frame as he runs. Nothing spectacular.
Nice grin on his face though.
He’s holding an out-of-frame camera. What you see as the cover is what would be a camera’s capture.
He’s taking a picture of himself.
It’s a selfie.
Get t?
Oh I got it from the get go. It’s just that (save for the blinding smile) it looks too much like a regular cover. To compare, my favorite is the one for Aquaman as that -definitely- was not a scene I’d expect to see on a regular cover. 🙂
I wasn’t going to get any selfie variants, but then I saw this one. What a cool cover!
I thought the selfie variants was a dumb idea, but love this cover!
Yeah, I expected them to be dumb too, but they seem to be having fun with the concept.
