Sweet piece! Not familiar with this book but I'll be sure to get it now. Congrats!
Page 6. You have been warned.
Love the cover design and the background art is stupendous.
This is a Frank Cho inspired homage by Huang and he's hella good at it. The contrast of background and the main figure is striking with delicate work. Elves, dwarves, orcs, etc. will soon find that a kick in the head is just what the fantasy genre savagely needs.
If they actually kick skulls, all the better!
That'd be cool if Huang starts a trend to homage Cho's Savage Wolverine #1 cover. There's so much to be done with that background like Skullkickers does.

That is proper form when you go skeet shooting with a pistol!
this is a great looking page. congrats
That is some uber-clever marketing, and this is a fabulous cover!!
A great cover and a issue #1 were meant to increase sales. And from your description I gather it worked. But is the series worth a read?
If you enjoy a laugh then I recommend wholeheartedly. May be my most favourite book ever but I'm a fantasy nerd as well.
Super cool. love the subtle inks. Has a very Ottley feel to me. Nice dude!
The trigger looks stuck! Lol naked Dwarves!! Awesome Cover bud!!
I really do enjoy the different layers and levels on this one. Great addition, John!
We built this...We built this city on Naked Dwarvesssss...Oooohhhhhhhhhh! That really is a funny cover idea. They should have just kept it going, and gone more obscure. I like when comics make me feel less dumb than I am. References are fun. Did you notice that they made the elf much more wholesome than the Wolvie cover? Another great humorous page, John. Congrats!
Yes I noticed but they already reached the scantily clad quota for this issue. 5 monkeys dead. Check. Naked dwarf. Check. Great issue folks. Send to the printer.
Nice homage and sweet piece of art in its own right! "The Sweet Skullkickers!" What do you think?! Definitely dig the contrast between the foreground character and the background. Do what you gotta do to sell dem books! Congrats!
Can we add sassy as well? The Sweet Sassy Skullkickers. I would buy at least 2 copies.
Even better! 3 copies for me!
I don't know much about Skullkickers (except that Chris Stevens, who I'm a huge fan of, was involved early on but no longer), but this is hilariously genius. Oh yeah, and the art is fantastic - congrats!
That's a fun cover.
Really great homage while being a fun cover in its own right.
