But there is one problem that a sharp eyed reader pointed out.
The image of Kamal Khan is taken from the Art Adams variant for the first issue.
That cover was “tweaked” before publication because Kamala was a little, well, white. See below the original and the final version.
The t-shirt uses the first one. Below see the shirt and the original cover with the final cover belwo.
Given that it seems Disney is making these to order (hence the limited edition and 3-5 weeks for delivery they should be able to correct this before they go into production. It’s an easily understood mistake but one that should definitely be corrected.

Delevingne’s comments about female superhero attire is a little head-scratching, though. While there are plenty of problems with female representation both in films and especially on movie merchandising, the accusation that they are “normally naked or in bikinis” seems a bit baseless. Even though Marvel sticks to a heavily skewed gender ratio and tends to put women heroes in impractical high heels and wedge boots as a default, their characters never wear bikinis; Black Widow, Peggy Carter, Maria Hill, Sif, Gamora and pretty much every other heroine in that universe always go into battle wearing pants.
We’ve yet to see what Enchantress will be wearing in “Suicide Squad.” We have seen plenty of pics of the film’s version of Harley Quinn, who shows a bit more skin than many – or all – of her Marvel counterparts.
Yes, instead of concentrating on Cara Delevingne’s commentary about superhero movies being sexist in general, let’s turn this into a Marvel vs. DC thing. Never mind the fact that she specifically called out Wonder Woman in her actual comments, making it clear that she wasn’t taking sides herself. Never change*, comicsinternet. (*Of course, I mean the opposite.)

The Radical Faeries, one of the more idiosyncratic groups at San Francisco’s Pride, said the festival should dump Facebook as a sponsor because of the company’s ban on adopted names.
The policy was unfair to LGBT people who use adopted names to avoid homophobia or to express their true identity, they said.
“I don’t like anybody telling me who I am or have to be,” said Storm Arcana, 42, seated on a rug in the Faerie Freedom Village, a colourful camp near city hall.
“That’s anathema to my essence. I’m self-defined and self-described and that is my right.” He objected to Facebook sponsoring Pride. “There’s too much of a contrast between what they represent and what we represent.”
The strangest thing about this report is that I know Storm, and seeing him show up in the Guardian was entirely unexpected. (I do think the no-adopted-name thing on Facebook is problematic, though.)
With the explosion, both of the contractors NASA relies on to get critical food and supplies to the space station have now had explosions within eight months of each other.
With the retirement of the space shuttle, NASA lost its ability to fly astronauts form U.S. soil, and has been paying the Russians more than $70 million a seat to fly American astronauts to the station. But NASA hopes to use contractors to end that dependence, and last year awarded contracts to SpaceX and Boeing to develop a capsules that can carry astronauts to the space station.
Much of Covington’s influence on his followers comes from his novels, which are written in a style that reads like someone spilled a 50-gallon barrel of ethnic slurs all over a stack of early-draft Robert Heinlein novels. His choice of cultural icons dates his books considerably, even the recent ones, which are filled with up-to-the-minute references to Jane Fonda and Gilligan’s Island, but the author probably doesn’t care about these criticisms. The books are not primarily novels, anyway.
The Northwest novels “are not meant to be mere entertainment”, according to Covington’s website Northwest.org. “They are meant to be self-fulfilling prophecies. The author wishes to inspire the creation of a real Northwest American Republic, and his novels are filled with a great deal of sound practical advice about how to do it.”
The online payment company PayPal appeared on Saturday to have disabled the account of the Council of Conservative Citizens (CofCC), a rightwing organization that was cited in a manifesto linked to the South Carolina shooting suspect Dylann Roof and has given to prominent Republican politicians.
