Unproduced: Captain America Cartoon Promo

Clipped from YouTube: One minute promo for the 1990's Saban Captain America cartoon that never got made.

Fun Fact: Toybiz had began development on a toy line for this series. Once canceled, they took the 3 prototype figures they had ready and released them through other toy lines of the time. The 1st was a Red Skull figure from the Spider-Man Sneak Attack series, 2nd was a Captain America figure with a spark throwing shield in the Spider-Man Electro Spark Series, last was a Toys-R-Us exclusive two pack with the same Cap figure, with a better shield, and bucky.

Unused Cover: Neal Adams Brave and Bold #85

Neal Adams Unpublished Brave and Bold #85 (1969) : This is an unused cover to Brave and Bold #85 -- the first appearance of Green Arrow's new costume.

Dork Note: Neal Adams redesign of Green Arrow's costume is one of the best redoes in comic history. Awhile back I did a post about it - Check It Out!

This unused (original) concept art would be a prize in anyone's collection. Especially, if you owned the published version. Wonder who owns it?

Unused Cover: Mike Mignola's Gotham by Gaslight

Sean Murphy's Unused Titans Pages

 

 

Pages #2, 6, 16, 20, and 22

 

Clipped from Comic Art Fan: Sean Murphy did a 2-part "Titans" story written by Mark Sable in what would have been the Titans' first encounter with the Flash's Rogues gallery. Unfortunately, those issues were not published because of a continuity error involving Bart Allen's death.

Dork Note: I would be pretty cool if DC or Marvel collected all their unused pages and covers that have existed over the decades and put them into a single volume. I would love to see the "what could have been".

Unpublished : John Byrne X-Men Splash Page

Clipped from Heritage Auction: John Byrne Unpublished New X-Men Splash Page Original Art (Marvel, 1976). Mr. Byrne commented, 

"That's the splash page to an unfinished (and thus unpublished) Wolverine story I started for my own amusement (i.e., on spec) before I was assigned to the X-Men's own title. I think it got as far as one more (unfinished) page." 

Unused Covers: Secret Wars #4, #6 & #7 (Updated)

Unused Art Adams Cover for Longshot

Unused Painted Cover - Longshot #06 by Arthur Adams (1986): The publisher didn’t want to go through the process of preparing this complex full-color art for printing, so Adams prepared a much simpler cover that was used for the book.
