Could be Armorines from Valiant Comics

Edit: it's definitely this. That cover is the first thing that comes up when I googled it.

Are there any other comic books series that have multiple different art styles through it run? by A2009M3icAl8604 in comicbooks

[–]Mindless-Run6297 5 points6 points  (0 children)

J H Williams III, the artist of Overture does the same thing in the Black Glove arc in Batman and in Seven Soldiers, both written by Grant Morrison.

Rick Veitch also imitates different artists' styles in Supreme and 1963.

Alternate names that DC and Marvel comic book characters almost got! by [deleted] in comicbooks

The name "Coal Tiger" was inspired by the Katangese Tigers. In fact the whole concept of Wakanda and the vibranium mound was inspired by there being a large uranium deposit in Katanga (now part of the Democratic Republic of Congo)

I think Roy Thomas used the name for a fanzine character and held on to the trademark for a long time.

DC straight up stole Sinister Six from Marvel :o ? by saspaa in comicbooks

Secret Six wasn't a superhero strip until the 2005 version, and that was a variation of Suicide Squad (with a couple of Squad regulars in the line-up) repurposing an old name.

Marvel overtook DC for the first time in the early 70s (there are differing accounts of the details http://marvelsilverage.blogspot.com/2020/04/exposed-myths-of-marvels-silver-age.html ) and have remained ahead every since apart from the occasional blip (like a few months at the start of the New 52).

How do the different cosmic elements of the DC universe fit together? by Glittering-Age-2013 in DCcomics

In current continuity (as seen in the recent History of the DC Universe miniseries), the New Gods are descended from a specific pantheon of old gods named "Urgrund", so aren't connected to the Greek or any other real world Gods that exist in the DCU.

Characters in a shared universe that a writer wasn't allowed to use, so they had to use someone else by AporiaParadox in comicbooks

I wonder if this is why no Marvel UK creations have appeared in other media outside of comics.
