Do these actually fit together? It almost looks like that in this auction, but the picture is small enough I cant be sure.

It's not "full color", but the Acclaim Reader cover is all of them together.

Anyone ever notice anything "special" about the Q&W painted cover.

You can see 'em all together and in color inside certain VH-2 comics (can't get to my collection yet, as the wife's priorities about the 'new' house win out over mine). Acclaim was going to release it as a poster (I ordered 2 thru Previews) but then it was cancelled. *sigh*

no, what is it ?

Well there is definitely a stereotype portrayed on the cover. Q&W is a black & white team. Now look at the painted cover again… about waist level.

I am amazed it was published this way.

The stereotype of "Once you go black, you'll never go back"?

I've never read Quantum and Woody, but does the white guy have an "alternative lifestyle"? The Victor/Victoria sign in the back and the "flame" lighting the cape on fire. He also kinda looks like a guy from Queer Eye (even though Q&W was out before the show).

THEY ARE NOT A COUPLE!

Long hair AND white boots. I can see where you'd make the mistake...
