Shades of Showcase #4 and Ramona Fradon…
Earlier this week, we showed off Brian Bolland’s variant cover for February’s Superman and Spider-Man Facsimile Edition. You can check it out here.
Meanwhile, Bolland’s got two more old-school variants in the solicitations DC released this week — one that homages 1956’s Showcase #4 and one that pays tribute to Ramona Fradon’s 1960s Metamorpho.
Dig these:
Carmine Infantino pencils, Joe Kubert inks. Design by Robert Kanigher.
—
Fradon pencils, Charles Paris inks
The top one is for The Flash #31, due March 25. There will also be a foil version.
The bottom goes with Justice League Unlimited #17, due the same day.

I’m always up for a bit of Bolland, but I don’t see that the Metamorpho image is a homage, particularly.

Dare i hope for a SHOWCASE # 4 FACSIMILE EDITION in 2026?

I would love to see a team-up between Metamorpho and Ultra the Multi-Alien!
Mark Waid, make it so!
