Deathstroke / Yogi Bear Variants

When the Deathstroke / Yogi Bear special was announced, the cover below was displayed as the main cover.


Recently, this second cover was revealed as a variant.


But Forbidden Planet, which calls itself the "the largest UK stockist of the latest comics and graphic novels" displays a different cover.


They make no reference to the above cover being another variant. They seem to list it as the regular cover. Perhaps a different cover is being used for the European market? In any event, I found it difficult to come by and therefore thought it might be worth sharing.

DEATHSTROKE / YOGI BEAR SPECIAL #1

I can't say I ever envisioned a day where Yogi Bear would have his own tag on this blog...

Building on recent success with other DC Comics/Hanna-Barbera team-ups, we have one of the world's great hunters stalking one of the most elusive animals in the forest.

In Yellowstone Park, legends speak of a spirit bear referred to as “the Yogi,” which few if any have actually encountered. Real or not, when a bear seems to have graduated from stealing picnic baskets to kidnapping actual campers, Ranger Smith decides it’s time to stop this menace—so he calls on the services of Slade Wilson—a.k.a. Deathstroke—to get the job done.

Got to admit, Yogi's looking pretty bad-ass there though...Credit where it's due, I first came across the above information on Bleeding Cool.
