Phil’s Reviews: Stuff I Bought #281
So, the big news this week is that DC, who had so much success with their 3D cover promotion last September, is doing it again this year, with a few twists. First, the covers are lenticular instead of 3D; that means, while they appear to have depth like the 3D covers, they actually have two scenes embedded in them, and if you tilt the cover back and forth you can toggle between them — so, for example, on the Green Arrow cover, one scene just shows Oliver Queen’s tombstone, but when you look from another angle his ghostly image appears … Continue reading
