  1. For the Illuminati one, Doctor Strange replacing Spidey is brilliant.

  2. In the original cover, Mike Zeck drew a bunch of people, in the Illuminati one there´s only six characters to play with. And Jim Cheung made it work!

    In Comic Book Urban Legends, Brian Cronin explains why Kitty was cut from the cover.
