Change Kitty Pryde's cover

jamesh

As well as showing what they look like, the comic cover chosen to portray a character should give the player a feel for their personality.  The cover chosen for Kitty Pryde shows her with a distressed look on her face, and a shoulder wound.

Going by the story in that issue, it's either showing her:

1. crying out in pain after being cut with an alien knife.
2. running away from the alien who wounded her, unable to communicate her panic to any of the other X-Men due to being stuck in her phased state.

Surely there are comic covers that portray the newest 5* character in a better light?

Googled a bit and found a blog post with a whole lot of awesome covers that all would be better than the current one: http://toobusythinkingboutcomics.blogspot.com/2012/09/on-kitty-pryde-12-greatest-super.html#!/2012/09/on-kitty-pryde-12-greatest-super.html

If I had to pick one myself, it would be this: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HJv-Xk2bY4o/UFdDeT9i-DI/AAAAAAAAQ3Q/ljuhlKElYTs/s1600/as16.jpg

Yeah, that's the only one that would work.
The others are either portraying her as part of X-men or make her look even worse than the cover we have now.

I would have thought  https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/7/74/Kitty_Pryde_Shadow_and_Flame_Vol_1_1.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20070923051415  would be an option as well.

I wonder how the licensing works in regards to the covers. There are a few that could use a change. I agree there are much better Kitty covers I especially love the missle one. I know some of the special covers they had were loads better than the original  They changed X-23 cover a while back so hopefully they'll listen with this one as well.

I would like any of the ones shown above, especially the one riding on the missile/shell. I think a 5* deserves a cover that better reflects their personality!
