The Conversation That Led To: Death of Wolverine's Covers

MARVEL GUY 1: So Wolverine's gonna die.
MARVEL GUY 2: Well not like DIE die, but yeah, die.
MARVEL GUY 1: Should have fancy covers for this.
MARVEL GUY 2: Foil holograms?
MARVEL GUY 1: NO
MARVEL GUY 1: BLOOD
MARVEL GUY 2: Blood?
MARVEL GUY 1: Listen. Wolverine is basically just his claws, right? He is literally just his claws
MARVEL GUY 2: I'm not sure that...
MARVEL GUY 1: So the covers are his claws exploding into blood. BLAM.

MARVEL GUY 2: They explode
MARVEL GUY 1: Just straight up explode. Then his hand. A new bloodsplosion on every cover. BLAM.
MARVEL GUY 2: Do we see what makes them explode?
MARVEL GUY 1: NO YOU HAVE TO BUY THE SERIES FOR THAT. GENIUS.
MARVEL GUY 2: Ugh.
MARVEL GUY 1: And we end with a metal bone fist. It's so metal.
MARVEL GUY 2: It's GROSS
MARVEL GUY 1: YOU'RE GROSS
MARVEL GUY 2: Don't you think that that's, I don't know, a little derivative?
MARVEL GUY 1: Of Terminator? I think that we can swing it.
MARVEL GUY 2: No. Event books with covers that have more blood each issue.
MARVEL GUY 1: I can't think of any others.

MARVEL GUY 1: Nobody read Watchmen.

MARVEL GUY 2: Oh. I kind of feel like...

MARVEL GUY 1: Literally nobody. 

MARVEL GUY 2: Okay well what about superhero event comics...

MARVEL GUY 1: Been plenty of those

MARVEL GUY 2: That end in a death...

MARVEL GUY 1: BEEN PLENTY OF THOSE

MARVEL GUY 2: WITH A CHANGING COVER SYMBOL LET ME FINISH

MARVEL GUY 1: Never with a hand, though.

MARVEL GUY 2: Ugh. No. Never with a hand.

MARVEL GUY 1: So we're great!
