Man, this whole "no takesie backsies" on the verify data page is no joke.
I accidentally yupped an entry that should have been a nope. I'm the only clicker, so it's still in the pending state needing more votes.
Mighty Avengers #2-PX - Greystoke60 submitted Morry Hollowell as a cover artist. He is not for this variant. He did the colors on the A cover.
You can clearly see his sig on that book here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/mighty-avengers-the/2/xmusbu
You can see that it is missing from the PX variant here: https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/mighty-avengers-the/2-PX/xmtpjx
Just wanted to make sure it got noped before someone else misclicks the yup.

I think you were right with it on the yup. it's the same cover as the regular #1, and Hollowell is credited as colorist on GCD on that, so he must also be the colorist for the PX one, despite someone missing using his "MO!" on the cover of that one. the league also says he was colorist on both, so just probably another Marvel mistake on the art they used. the forehead is still colored, so assume that was done by Hollowell on both. found 1 other dealer site that has him as cover artist, but GCD doesn't list the cover artists for this variant.
BUT, argh, I accidentally noped the REGULAR #2 for that artist entry first, so crap, now that needs to be removed or overruled by more yups. wish Bneeley would get these glitches fixed, it's been couple a weeks now. and how is it that pghhead can upload pics, but most of us can't?
edit: been verifying Marvel subs, and Glorkar, it appears you mis-clicked on the colorist for Weird Wonder Tales #21. GCD and others only have Diane Buscema as colorist on all the stories, and Holloway as just the letterer on one. so I noped that, so needs another nope from someone.

Not gonna lie, I wasn't sure with the slight coloring. I just thought he would have made sure his sig was on the cover, you know? So I guess I can go either way on that.
And yeah, you're correct on WWT #21. I've been verifying, trying to take the number down. The problem is, I always check for variants on the books I'm verifying. So yeah, instead of that number shrinking, it goes up, up, up!
I appreciate ya double checking. I know it's slow going some times.

here's what I figure on the cover stuff... the PX variant was an earlier, obviously unfinished work that Marvel and Previews decided to publish, but the original hadn't been signed by Holloway yet because it wasn't finished. So when he finished the fully colored version he put his sig on it. but I don't know how they work things at marvel and how they decide what to do with what covers, but pretty sure Holloway colored the purple part on the PX one too. On other sites, I saw no diff in the color on that, but GCD's are a bit different shade, but likely die to scanner variation.
I verified a bunch of stuff last night and today, so when someone else yups them, a bunch should disappear on the number count. may get to some more tonight, haven't decided yet. and I too check many variants when 1 is subbed and then add more covers or creators to the lists too, but that comes and goes with what I feel like at the time. you follow up with my cover artist subs a lot, adding the other creators, so that keeps you busy, so you're welcome  . I tend to do the easy/quick stuff first, and maybe add more later, or leave that up to others.
