I think Marvel has done a pretty good job with its Director’s Cut reprints. I read through the Kick-Ass Director’s Cut and was pleased with all the bonus content – which I’m sure will appear in the collected trade. Those who want a better behind the scenes look at what goes into a comic might want to check out the Avengers/Invaders #1 Director’s Cut coming from Marvel in July.
The first printing sold out at Diamond Comic Distributors – a statement that seems to have caused many a website to launch into a overprint policy argument – but as always, you might be able to find a copy at your LCS (local comic shop).
I like the new cover by Alex Ross, very Marvels #1.
AVENGERS/INVADERS #1 (of 12) DIRECTOR’S CUT (MAY088146)
Written by JIM KRUEGER & ALEX ROSS
Penciled by STEVE SADOWSKI
Cover by ALEX ROSS
After the haunting confrontation between Steve Rogers and Tony Stark, is there any way to calm the Invaders down? Transplanting the heroic war heroes of WW2 to the present is sure to shake things up—but will these two teams find a way to co-exist?
Avengers/Invaders #1 arrives July 23 for $3.99.
