But, if they say it's a hand-drawn sketch cover, it sounds (to me) as if
they sent a bunch of comics with blank covers to your place and you
drew 19-second Jazz and sent them back for distribution.

Is that the case?

I have not done them yet, as the number I do will be based on the orders we get, but, yes, that's the plan. Tho somewhat more than 19 seconds, per drawing, I expect!

The fashions today are very 1980's. So, you are still working forward even if you keep them in the 90's style. :)

I recieved my Premium Hardcovers. The 1st issue IS smaller than 2 and 3. I am not complaining. Just stating what someone else did elsewhere. The first one is comic size and the next 2 are like Omnibus size. Very cool, either way. I will have a nice time reading them this weekend.

Joe M:  "The first one is comic size and the next 2 are like Omnibus size"

****

The first one is the same size dimensions as a Marvel Omnibus or the new Dark Phoenix saga hardback.  The second and third are bigger than all of them - and they are fantastic!  I love the bigger size.  I am so glad these came out in hardback.  This series is very deserving.

Now I hope IDW does an Omnibus with 2112!

No one is disputing that the first volume was mistakenly printed at a smaller size, Joe. But some seem to be insisting that the THIRD volume is also off-sized, which it is not.

Very nice cover and colors!!!
... I'd love to have those Next Men figurines in my shelves :)

I'm thinking that it will be hard to get all the variant covers, I will order a few copies more and maybe if I have luck... if not I will try in Ebay.
