The cover of Secret Six #1 as it was solicited, left, and as it will appear on shelves in May

At Horhaus, artist Karl Kerschl shows us what the cover to DC's Secret Six #1, due in May, will really look like:

If you saw the DC solicitations last month, you'd have seen a very different version of this cover - more often than not I (and I suspect many others) have to churn out loose, rough colour versions of the covers to make the deadline for the Previews catalogue. After that, there's a bit more time to work on the finished piece.

While the final colors are nice, I sort of liked the negative-image aspect of the earlier version. I wonder if this means Issue 2 will sport different colors, too.
