Game of Thrones crosses over with Uncanny X-Men #141's iconic Days of Future Past cover!

Take a look at this fun piece of art that brings together the hit HBO show Game of Thrones and the iconic cover to Uncanny X-Men #141 (original comic cover created by John Byrne). The creators of the piece, Comfort Love and Adam Withers, took the look of the classic comic cover (which happens to be the comic that starts the "Days of Future Past" storyline) and added the characters Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, and Daenerys Targaryen from Game of Thrones to it.
"So, this was an idea that Adam was shocked - SHOCKED - had not been done yet. When it occurred to him, he scoured the Googles to see whether anybody else had done it, but nothing came up. So here he is, sitting on this goldmine idea. In case anybody isn’t getting the reference, this piece is an homage to the classic John Byrne cover to Uncanny X-Men #141 - the start of the Days of Future Past storyline. With the upcoming movie, you’ll probably be seeing this cover more often.
Adam selected Dany, Tyrion, and Jon for the front because they seem to have the strongest “Plot Armor.” Whatever else might appear to happen to them, I suspect we’ll be seeing them through to the end of the story. Though god knows I could be wrong. That Martin SOB loves toying with our emotions."
