Description

This is the unpublished cover for Lois Lane 87. Neal told me that any unpublished DC covers are �self-rejected,� meaning that he decided he didn�t like them himself, as opposed to any editorial dictate. Either way, you can see the switch makes sense. The �rejected� cover has Superman breaking up a catfight. The published cover, where the characters are flying, rather than on the ground, makes it much clearer that two super-powered woman are trying to kill each other.

That said, I like the overall appearance of the unpublished cover much better and the �Fortress of Solitude� interior, with chair and control center, is especially cool.

Very cool! The Superman figure on yours is better than the published, but I get why it was changed. Congrats!

Any Adams cover (even an unpublished one) is a cause for celebration. Congrats!

Wow, I like this one much better. The drawing is better. There's always the speech balloon to establish context!

I usually prefer the published version, but I think the unpublished one in this case is better. I understand why they made the change, mostly because it shows Super Lois using her superpowers.
