The new Frontier

While it's still technically the long holiday weekend, I wanted to show off a little new art. In the Spring, John Byrne's next STAR TREK series, McCOY: FRONTIER DOCTOR, set in the time leading up to the first STAR TREK movie, launches, not only with this great cover (colored by Lovern Kindzierski):


...but also the first of four "incentive" "gag" covers featuring the good doctor (ask your retailer how to get these):

Great covers, I like the second one best. I don't have a retailer anymore, I get my books online. What way can I get these covers?

These are incentive covers, offered to retailers as incentive to order a certain amount of copies. So the only way to get them would be to either find a comic retailer that could sell you one (places like Midtown Comics in NYC do great mail-order business), or to find them on eBay afterwards.

Thanks Chris!

I've used Midtown before and liked their service so I can try them. Ebay would probably have the price hiked up way higher than I'd spend on a bonus cover so I don't think I would go that route.
