And it better be right-or I'm suing you!

The cover is a little reminiscent of Magnus 5 with the angle at least.

I'm pretty sure its Raymond Swanland, the same guy who did the cover for the Free Comic Book Day book as well as the Alien and Predator books. :thumb:

It is Raymond, he will be doing the covers for Magnus while another artist (forgot his name) will be doing the Solar covers.

As in "Doctor Solar," the first storyline will not focus on Magnus's origin, which Shooter said would be told in a 67-page zero issue to be released sometime in the future.

67 pages for a zero issue!
