Lets do this thing! Trisul was awesome enough to do this last time (and I snagged three of the images he used as the MPQ Wiki is dead slow on my computer,) so I decided to put the poll up this time. I'm not as ambitious as he is, here's a link to a D3 page with all the new covers:

Here are the former covers for the first five on that page:

    Can you update the poll to vote for 6 instead of 5? When I vote for one of each I am told I have voted too many times

    Whoops! Yeah, I miscounted - SW made it into the second poll.

    new marvel and x23 are much better. dino and I think 4thor original was better. no preference on kk for me.

    Interesting that we only have one vote so far for the old X-23 cover - I mean, I liked the new one too, but it wasn't a strong preference. The old one isn't bad...

    Captain Marvel - WoP
    This one is just so goofy. I think the original is actually a better cover, but I will laugh every time I see "Three Captain Marvel Moon".

    X23 - WoP
    This was a tough choice, because I think both covers are equal. The extra colour in the Women of Power variant is what won me over in the end.

    Thor - WoP
    I just really like the variant cover. It's still not my top pick, but I'll survive.

    Devil Dinosaur - Original
    The Kirby art is classic. I think this cover could be really good for Moon Girl herself when she inevitably/invariably gets added to the game.

    Kamala Khan - Original
    Another tough choice. Pretty much all of the Kamala covers are great, so I wouldn't be too disappointed if the WoP variant gets kept for her.

    Edit: Added clarification.

    I don't understand why anyone likes the old Thor cover.

    This is from the discussion thread:

    Thor: I preferred the original. The downward gaze really felt like it captured the feeling of fighting the long defeat so common in the original Norse myths. The variant's softer colors seems a bit too cartoonish to me.

    That sums up my feelings on the old cover to a T - it feels pensive to me which evokes a certain level of pathos that I like. I also rather like how it looks more like a painting than a comic book cover...
