The most Hugable WWE Superstar is getting her own cover for ComicXposure. Bayley is holding her hard-won NXT championship close to her chest in the cover by Fabio Valle. Her male counterpart John Cena, who is making his way back to WWE TV for the first time in a while, is also featured in a cover by Nakia Mann for Tate’s Comics.
The Demon Finn Balor is getting two covers, with the first from artist Oliver Barrett for Fried Pie Comics and the second, featuring him in his demon form, is by Corbyn Kern for JJ’s Comics & Art. The ever-popular Sasha Banks is also getting two variant covers, but both were created by artist Audrey Mok, and both are available through Friendly Neighborhood Comics. The first version is called the “Boss” edition and features Sasha in ring action. The second cover is the “Champion” edition and features Banks holding up the RAW Women’s Championship.
Finally the trio of positivity The New Day will get their own variant cover by Jerry Gaylord, which can be purchased through Third Eye Comics.
