    honestly, those are some of the most disappointing covers ever. Especially covers meant to mark such a big aniversary. Good art, but horribly cheap-looking covers.

    Ewwwwwwww.

    The one with Rogue is horrendous, just because of her facial expression. Illyana's isn't much better (facial expression wise).

    Talk about botox.

    Edit - I'd have to say the best would be the cover to X-Force. Kinda disappointed X-Factor doesn't have a variant.

    Nice. But I can't wait for the X-Men Forever one that has Cockrum's original Storm design on it.

    Rogue's boobs still have Ms. Marvel's power of flight.

    yeah, i'd have to agree that these covers look pretty bland. i like the cheung border, but that's about it. i would have had the border go all the way up the sides, though, and just decrease the logo size (or overlay it on the border). it looks like too much empty space up there.
    and i'm counting 1, counting 2, counting 3...

    LOLOL.

    What bugs me most is her facial expression, for some reason.

    Her mouth looks like a beartrap with lips.

    I like the covers. Pixie is on each one! But aside from Ms Gwynn, I think the covers are all - Legacy aside - rather nice. Simple, but effective. I'd like to see an X-Factor one. Would it be Madrox or Layla on the cover?

    X-23 is totally stealing the limelight from Wolverine yet again, though, the Mary Sue

    What are the ratios for these variants? I would like to have the X-23 and Magik ones.

    I love it when blood is shown flowing out of her claw openings.

    Deadpool is hiding behind Storm. So is BP.

    Pixie is with Punisher?!?

    Why don't we see that each time she and Wolverine pop claws?

    Wait,

    who's that guy beside Molly and Captain America?

    The guy in the black? Also beside Ms. Marvel.

    Their micro-spray is so unsanitary.
