    Fans of comic book cover art have come to relish a phenomenon that began in 1986 with the first issue of The Man of Steel, which featured two different covers from artist John Byrne. The notion of so-called "variant covers" caught on and has now become a regular part of DC Comics' diverse output, with a wildly creative set of alternate covers being created for many key issues. Now you can explore the world of these alternative works of art with DC Comics Variant Covers: The Complete Visual History, which showcases some of the finest and most famous variant covers ever produced, with insight into the design process from leading comic artists and industry experts.

    Hardcover, 11-in. x 14-in., 184 pages, full color. Cover price $45.00.
