As with other similar promotions, I love the idea of these images and seeing some awesome artwork, but I’m not a fan of these characters being shoehorned into covers for titles they have nothing to do with. I’m fairly certain we won’t see any Skrulls in Uncanny X-Men #11. Unlike other variant covers, we won’t know for sure because the Skrulls can shape-shift. They could be anyone in those titles!
