    I honest to goodness hate them. I don't like Zombies, they squick me out. I was willing to put up with it for a few weeks but this is awful. Some of these covers actually kind of need a trigger warning - the Cable one comes to mind.

    Yeah, it's crazy that it is Nov 26 and we still have them. And you're right, that Cable one is dreadful. I hate them and am so ready for them to be gone.

    I'll be ridiculously optmistic and suggest that, after this holiday week, they will flip covers for a xmas, new year's, yule, hanukkah, kwanzaa, saturnalia, epiphany, boxing day set of covers.

    Rival Grocket looks kinda christmas-y.

    And nobody from the devs is even commenting on this. Totally agree. Please get rid of the zombie covers.

    Yes please. They're awful to look at. It is going in far too long. I understand the covers will surely have fans, but Horror is IMO not what Marvel is about usually. I don't enjoy this sight when claiming covers.

    I think people complaining about the art choice is a bit rich. Horror, or otherwise, they're pretty tame.

    What I dislike is that I've spent 9 years knowing what cover is what. I don't know which is which at the moment.

    I find it somewhat amusing, considering that I have been hearing Christmas music everywhere for the last month. Like, I can't tell if I'm living in the past or the future.

    I don't mind the darker subject matter, but too many of them look vaguely similar and the mis-matching with their ascended variants has been somewhat confusing, so I agree that they should probably go away already.

    Maybe next time we could get a slew of Groot covers for Arbor Day...

    They can all go away expect 1 star venom. That one can stay forever.

    Now I'm used to them, and when they change them back I won't know who's who anymore.

    Again not a hater; was just tired of them.

    And since he didn’t answer the question; I don’t have to name child 22: SoKun 3001.

    I am so tinykitty relieved to find these gone as of yesterday. It was honestly causing me stress to open tokens. It wasn't like that at first (though I never liked them,) but they were so damn ugly and so twisted, I actually stopped pulling Mighty tokens because of them (I usually start hoarding for the next 3/5 about a week out, this time I stopped as soon as Namor was out.)

    I don't like looking at corpses, I particularly don't like looking at corpses of characters I like.
