Description Again I tried to go for something a little different with this cover. I wanted to keep it more graphic this time around; I didn't want to do lots of needless rendering. I wanted to keep it bold, and I'm hoping it stand out on the shelves.

Pencils, inks, and colours, all by me.

X-FACTOR #228
Written by Peter David
Penciled by Leonard Kirk
Cover by David Yardin

X-MEN REGENESIS


Still reeling from the shocking death of one of their own, how can the X-Factor team possibly take down the one responsible
-- the deadly Bloodbath? Then, in issue 229: Layla Miller. Jamie Madrox. Husband and wife. Lying murdered in their honeymoon suite. The moment you thought would never come is here, and not only are you a witness to it, but so is Jamie Madrox himself. We feel safe in saying that this is X-Factor as you've never seen them before in the first part of what has to be the trippiest arc in the history of Marvel.
32 PGS. (each)/Rated T+ …$2.99 (each)

I might just start buying X-Factor just for your covers. Amazing sense of emotion conveyed and great use of color.

Defiantly a cover to hang up on a wall.

This is a gorgeous cover. Really fits in with the original noir feel of Madrox and X-Factor.

CarlPearce In reply to davidyardin [2011-10-05 09:29:36 +0000 UTC]

Absolutely. I always loved the noir aspect of this incarnation of X-Factor. Specially towards the beginning of the series. Noto cemented that with his covers and this is a lovely serendipitous tie in to them. Really well done, man

Just popped in... after about 4 other layouts. As soon as I pictured it in my head though, I knew this was the one.

Phandagart In reply to davidyardin [2011-09-23 13:41:07 +0000 UTC]

That's one way to do it. I usually copy all your covers to my HD and this one even works when it's tilted to the left.
I'll ask my dealer at the shop how he thinks the cover worked as an incentive when I pick it up.
