The rumor was true!

The House of M #1 variant cover by Joe Mad! did indeed come out today and retailers only got a single copy of it! There are dozens of them on eBay as your reading this that are going for $30+ dollars. If you haven't already you should check your local comic shop for this cover if it isn't already gone. Over at Joemadfan.com Nathen bought two copies (one from two comic stores) and said he paid between $20 and $30 for each of them so this cover comes at kind of a hefty price.

I'm checking my local shop tomorrow so hopefully I will get my hands on it so I can scan the cover for the site. Check back tomorrow for the update.

Take your pick. I use them all. Sometimes I work on paper that’s a little different ( smoother or more coarse ) and I may move up or down to an H or a B lead if needed. But I find H and 2H digs into the pap er and is too hard to erase ( Which sadly I do a lot of ) and B is too soft ( smudges like a mofo.) B is fantastic for going back over lines, darkening , and adding weight to your lines. Basically, ‘inking’ with a pencil. **Just keep a sheet of scrap paper under your hand or you will smudge the shit out of your drawing!!!** HB suits my needs 99% of the time. Really no need to switch it out, just adjust your pressure. Harder or...
