Upcoming Releases: JLI Volume 3 #1
Did you ever play that game where you look at two images and try to find what has been changed between them? DC has.
The internet's inability to identify the girl on the bottom left of the originally released cover for Justice League International, Volume 3, #1 (seen on the left) seems to have inspired a change in the "final cover" (seen on the right). We know from other sources that she's not Wonder Woman, Donna Troy, or Black Canary. Given the fact that she's now invisible, maybe she's Gypsy. The solicitation text provides no hints:
With the growing presence of super beings around the world, the United Nations resolves to create a new group called Justice League International. Batman, Booster Gold, Green Lantern Guy Gardner, August General in Iron, Fire, Ice, Vixen and Rocket Red are charged with promoting unity and trust — but can they reach that goal without killing each other first?
I guess we'll find out when the issue is released on September 7, 2011.

Before and After: #44
The DC preview of tomorrow's Booster Gold #44 is online at The Source. Once again, I find it interesting to compare the solicitation cover art with the finished work. (I previously compared the solicitation and final art for the cover of issue #42.)
Both images were drawn by Dan Jurgens and inked by Norm Rapmund. The difference between the two images -- for good or ill depending on your personal aesthetic -- is the work the colorists at Hi-Fi Designs.

Before and After
Yesterday DC released a preview of Booster Gold #42 in the Source, and it's interesting to compare the solicitation cover art with the finished work.
Both images were drawn by Chris Batista and presumably inked by Rich Perotta. The solicitation image on the left was probably colored by a DC staffer; the final image on the right was colored by Hi-Fi Designs. What a difference a bit of computer color makes.

Top 100 Covers? Bah.
While I'm on the subject of fan tributes to Booster Gold, I should mention another blog post I ran across this past weekend. Minor Henchman finished his highly-subjective list of the 100 greatest comics covers of the past 20 years, and while no cover in the list features Booster Gold, Booster does appear in 2 of the comics: Justice League International #18 and Chase #6. JLI 18 is a fun cover, sure, but hardly the best of the Maguire Justice League covers. (Justice League #4 is far superior, but I'm certainly biased.) While I can't say as I agree with many of Minor Henchman's choices, the list is worth a look-see, if only to see if you agree with it yourself.
