'Runaways' #1, the second time around (or third, really)


As a rule, I'm not keen on variant/multiple covers -- it's part of my stance against comics as "collector items" -- but I am a fan of Brian K. Vaughan and Adrian Alphona's Runaways. So, I figured I'd point out the new cover for the second printing of Issue 1, which Vaughan premiered last night on his blog.

I love Jo Chen's cover work for the series, but it's still nice to see Alphona's art on the outside of the book.

Of course, that doesn't mean I'm buying the "limited edition," which hits shelves on March 23; I already have a copy from the first printing, thankyouverymuch.
