      That Uncanny X-Force #1 cover looks a lot like Mark Silvestri's style.

      Does anyone else see that?

      Ahh.. that fun moment where you e-mail your LCS to confirm you want all 5 covers to Uncanny X-Force #1...

      Is it sad that I did get all the card variations of the original X-Force? Yes?
      Then never mind. I admit nothing.

      It appears that the cover to #1 will be available in some stores as a free mini-poster, much like the Fear Itself/Schism one:

      TBH, at this time of year, my comics buying and ability to get to a shop for the things is so funky, I'll probably not even notice.
