DC/Wildstorm ThunderCats Issue #5 - Variant Cover Pencilled by: Rick Mays Inked by: Rick Mays From the collection of: Frederic Massa Owner's website: N/A Notes of Interest: Over the course of the numerous ThunderCats mini-series that the company would release, DC/Wildstorm would generally release two versions of each issue, identical inside but each with a different cover, a "regular" cover and a "variant" cover - the regular cover would usually be drawn by the art team who worked on the interior of the comic, whilst the variant cover would usually be drawn by a well-known guest artist, and would often feature some very interesting and unique interpretations of the ThunderCats. This piece is no exception, drawn by famed artist Rick Mays - Rick is best-known for the Japanese influence in his artwork, and it has to be said that this is one of his more American-influenced pieces. However, it is still possible to discern Rick's own unique style from within this striking and exciting piece.
