Alex Ross Paradise X 11 cover

Years ago, Galactus recommended the Earth X series to me. When I finally got around to reading it, I thought it was extremely well done and I greatly enjoyed it. I then started to hunt for a nice representative sample of art from the series. It's a 36+ issue trilogy - Earth X, Universe X, and Paradise X - with multiple cross overs so there is plenty of art out there. Fortunately I was able to pick up this cover in the last Heritage Auction.

Now who here can identify the characters?


And if you have not read the series, do yourself a favor and read it. It's on Marvel Unlimited.

I think I see Hulk, Starlord, Nova, Thing, Mini-Cap, Luke Cage, Hyperion, Falcon... I don't know who the woman is with the soul gem.

Cool pick up!

Wow! That's a great cover! Congrats!

It's been a few years since I last read it, but to the best that I can recall it's the Thing, Alicia, Nova, Luke Cage, Wyatt Wingfoot, Carol Danvers, Quasar, Starlord, Hulk, Hyperion and the little boy is the resurrected Mar-Vell.

Great cover UD. I read Earth X years ago but never got around to Universe X or Paradise X. I'm going to to fix that.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.
