Samurai Jack #1 Exclusive Cover - drawn by Bryan "Flash" Turner
Samurai Jack #1 Exclusive Cover – drawn by Bryan “Flash” Turner (click on image to go to Southern Maryland Comic Con website)

even though we are enjoying some time at home from comic cons, we here at ID STUDIOS can’t wait for Southern Maryland Comic Con on November 9th. why?? because BRYAN “FLASH” TURNER’s exclusive cover for Samurai Jack #1 will be making its debut! and it is AWESOME!!! and what’s even better is that the back of it is blank. so make sure you attend the convention, get your copy of the exclusive cover, and have Flash draw you a sketch!

Jim Zub, the writer for the new series, is also a guest at the show so make sure you get his signature on it as well. gotta love all the ID STUDIOS art spread around on these different covers.    ~peng
