From what I understand, all this Manifest Destiny stuff is all Red Skies tie-ins (much like Divided We Stand right now), I think the only thing tieing them together is that the stories take place in frisco

Yeah... It seems more like just a line-wide shift in tone rather than an actual event.

But Marvel really likes bannering up the X-books.
 
They like bannering up everything

if it has a banner it sells about 20% more than usual

I picked up the first issue of Millar's Wolverine the other day, and in big letters it says "Wolverine's All-Time Greatest Adventure Begins Here!"

Wow!

Get your ugly ****ing hype off of my cover art, *******s.

Fables has the same problem. Big-*** banner covering beautiful James Jean art.

UGH

more and more I'm seeing actual completley unnecessary Text on covers, not banners, not logo's, word bubbles, and I hate it, Amaxing Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, Wolverine, etc. and I absolutley hate it

really all that should be on a cover, is an image, the trade dress (Series Logo, Marvel Logo, Creator names) The UPC serial bar (which really should be on the back), and if absolutley necessary an event banner
