This is a very nicely done "fan variant". I'd submit it to Archie. It would be a great piece for the fan art section in the back of the book!

Thanks. And not to worry I'll be including this in my Sonic Art Collection magazine for a portfolio submission.

Lots of colour desaturation on the non-official cover of an epic battle scene.

I have already purchased this issue & read it dozens of times, esp. via a read along on a recorded livestream video with you, Kovabomb & Evan.
Somehow I have already developed an interest in Old English as well as the Mercian Freedom Fighters.

A big congrats to trunks24 for his cover art official debut for StH #247, which I really look forward to.

Can't wait for SU #47 soon!!!

It even looks like a real cover for an issue! Very great job here Speedster, you really should try to work on Archie Publications, at least in one cover xD

Because your work is one of the best when it ocmes into nailing the "Archie" Style.

Why thanks for the compliments Chaosdaniel.

There's some serious competition out there and it's amazing to how this serious continue to evolve in it's art and story.

I'd love to do a cover in legit fashion one day, perhaps that opportunity will come in future.

You're welcome ^^

Indeed it is. Basically it's a speed and quality competition, if your skills are good enough and you are also fast enough, you may be noticed.

Well seeing how good the odds are, don't get too much surprised if the oportunity comes in the near future
