This is a variant cover of the Django Unchained Issue #2 comic done by artist Mark Chiarello. Chiarello is best known for his Terminal City covers. Vertigo, who is publishing the comic, claims that Django Unchained Issue #2 will be released on February 13th, 2013. I’ve seen this release date pushed back at least three times, though, so I’ll believe it when I see it.

In other Django Unchained comic news:

• I have created a new Django Unchained Comic Page which consolidates all information about the comic, including release dates, covers, and preview scans, into one convenient place.
• Django Unchained Issue #1 is getting a second printing! Its first run sold out, so a second printing will be issued on February 6th. Amazon is still selling paper copies and Kindle copies of Issue #1.
• There will eventually be a hardcover book featuring all Django Unchained issues. This will be released on September 3rd, 2013. Amazon is already has a product page up for it and is now taking pre-orders.
