I picked up volumes 6 and 7 today, but why the hell are they using the artwork from the DDP Reinstated series? The artwork is just out of place for this series. Does this mean they will at least be releasing the DDP stuff in paperback after they finish the classic series? I mean that would be nice, especially if they put them in order since DDP had issues out of order in their collections.

I'm guessing it was because Marvel had commissioned J. Scott Campbell to do the first five TPBs, but since they didn't do any others after that, IDW had to use what they had...

Guy at the comic shop yesterday told me they were coming out with the DDP trades pretty soon (I want to say in the next month or two)
As for why they're using the artwork. They're probably trying to keep them in line with the first 5 TPB's Since IDW reprinted those almost exactly like the ones Marvel released years ago and Marvel used J Scott Campbell artwork for the covers, they're using whatever J Scott Campbell artwork they can get (Which apparently are covers from the DDP series) |

IDW's first TPB of DDP stuff comes out next week in local comic shops. But there's only 5 issues in each TPB. It's gonna take them forever to release everything.

Five issues? -_-
And let me guess, they are going to charge $15 for these five issues...

Disappointed about the 5 issues. I already have the ddp in tradebacks, but I was interested in the upcoming re-release since they would probably have done all the issues and put them in order (the ddp tradebacks left out 5 issues).
