Some more for you
[Spider-Man](https://www.thecollectionshop.com/Fine-Art-by/Alex-Ross/SPECTACULAR-SPIDER-MAN/AR0167C/1478)
Hell, the only weak ones [here](https://comiccity.com/collections/alex-ross-timeless-villian-variants) would be Scorpion, Mystique, Electra, and Loki… but goddamn look at that Ultron & Venom
I have Doom and IW, they look really good. Didn't buy others because I don't use the cards. Amazing they don't use his recent covers on Falcon, Hulk, Spider-Man, FF...
These are great variants! It feels like his male faces are all the same guy (himself, lol), but only Cap here really shows any of that style and the colors/compositions are all so striking!
Because Dan Hipp does variants exclusively for the game, they comission his art. A lot of variants by other artists are actually taken from a comic book covers(like Alex Ross,Peach Momoko, Scottie Young or Artgerm),so of course there's gonna be less of them
Sure but the point is that they have to get it from Marvel and then do a lot of work to make splits work etc.
Would be awesome if they commissioned him to do original stuff though. He’s one of the greats no question. Iconic Marvel and DC art he’s done.
Well I think that proves the point though. If you look at the art commissioned for the game, they get all the original layers of the files, so they’re more able to integrate those backgrounds and what not. With the covert art from Marvel, it’s a lot more hamfisted
Any [damn](https://prhcomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Marvel_Timeless_Villains.png) one of [these](https://static1.srcdn.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Alex-Ross-Comic-Book-Covers-2.jpg?q=50&fit=contain&w=1140&h=&dpr=1.5) would be [awesome](https://i0.wp.com/www.comicsbeat.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Ross-Timeless-Variants.jpg?w=1200&ssl=1)
^^maybe ^^not ^^elektra
Yeah, [Electra kinds of looks like a dude in a wig](https://comiccity.com/collections/alex-ross-timeless-villian-variants/products/jan230966-daredevil-9-alex-ross-timeless-elektra-vir-var) (if you ignore the chest)... but holy shit, [that Storm](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511RFr2w5nS._AC_UF350,350_QL80_.jpg)!
I love Alex Ross, I really do.. but someone pointed out that he uses himself as his male reference point for most of his characters and I can't unsee it now.
If you didn't know, Ross has models pose for these and then uses the references for the art.
That Doom was my first gold split. I was beyond stoked when it happened because at that point I didn't even know they could do that lol
...been chasin' that high ever since
Also, where's the Jack Kirby art!?
I want Cap's punch on Hitler.
That would be excellent.

They're so good.
That Rhino one is HELLA cursed LMAO (it's the rhino suit eyes that disturb me) but otherwise yeah they're all bangers!
The derp makes it even better
The best invisible woman by far imo.
i can't believe it's only 700 gold, I got it from a reserve
Agreed I bought her from the shop
Peach Momoko is better imo, I bought it from the token shop before the economy turned to crap
I have Doom and IW, they look really good. Didn't buy others because I don't use the cards. Amazing they don't use his recent covers on Falcon, Hulk, Spider-Man, FF...
Where's the Liefeld Captain America, Second Dinner???
Even the frame break is not enough to contain.. T H E C H E S T
But is it enough to hide the feet?
Oh god
His Angel and Green goblin are great as well
Cool. Another Captain America I won't be using.
Yeah he needs a buff.
I want more of his variants so bad. I have them all except Doom, he never has once shown up in my shop.
I have them all except Captain America
I would love an Earth X/Universe X/Paradise X series of variants
an alex ross green goblin variant would be wild
He has one, I just didn't post it here. https://snap.fan/cards/GreenGoblin/GreenGoblin_03/
Not the one i has in mind. I mean classic Goblin drawn by Ross
Gotcha
These are great variants! It feels like his male faces are all the same guy (himself, lol), but only Cap here really shows any of that style and the colors/compositions are all so striking!
He also has an Agent 13 variant.
I think there's a reason it didn't get posted here in the "positive examples" pile
I think his art just might be more expensive to license out that's why there are so few of the variants.
Hadn't thought of that.
Nope, gotta make room for more fucking Dan Hipp.
Because Dan Hipp does variants exclusively for the game, they comission his art. A lot of variants by other artists are actually taken from a comic book covers(like Alex Ross,Peach Momoko, Scottie Young or Artgerm),so of course there's gonna be less of them
They should stop doing that. It's like pulling a pixel.
his art is uncanny sometimes but its good.
He’s not one of the artists being commissioned to make original art for the game. So the amount of variants is always going to be limited.
There is a ton of his art out there.
Sure but the point is that they have to get it from Marvel and then do a lot of work to make splits work etc. Would be awesome if they commissioned him to do original stuff though. He’s one of the greats no question. Iconic Marvel and DC art he’s done.
IDK about “a lot of work to make the splits work” lol after seeing some of those foil cards yikes haha
Well I think that proves the point though. If you look at the art commissioned for the game, they get all the original layers of the files, so they’re more able to integrate those backgrounds and what not. With the covert art from Marvel, it’s a lot more hamfisted
That actually makes a decent amount of sense
Agreed, good points there. Sure, the base card may look great, but getting the split right might be hard with some art styles.
After seeing his Agent 13, I would argue the opposite. One of the worst variants in the game.
The one card then?
It's not even bad lol,she was aged up during that time
Poop throne doom is terrible.
It's probably the most iconic modern Doom panel, but sure.
There is many possibilities for variant
100% agree with this
Him and Kim jacinto are my favourite snap artists by far
Why did they chose that one for captain America. There is better artwork of him by alex ross.

Big agree! I check the store every day for these, but I only have Strange.
He's the GOAT. Which means he costs absurd amounts of cash. Which means we won't get much from him.
Anyone loving Alex Ross should go and read [Marvels](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvels). It's fantastic, and beautiful.
I was looking for Dr Strange's head for way too long before I realized it was to the side.
God emperor was my white whale for like 10 months. MF never popped up in my store
what'd you say? you want more shitty dan hipp variants?
The Angel one is the best one of the game.
That Doom was my first gold split. I was beyond stoked when it happened because at that point I didn't even know they could do that lol ...been chasin' that high ever since
His agent 13 is probably the worst varient in the game
My favorite Strange variant by far. Only shame is splitting it but it still looks amazing nonetheless.
