I made these just for fun. All these games are quite common (except Punisher) and they often come as cart only, so I figured I'd make some fun covers for them.

As always, UGC cover is formatted for Universal Game Case and Sega clamshell is for standard Sega boxes. As always, all are formatted for printing.

Enjoy.

This game didn't get a Japanese release, so I thought it'd be interesting to make a Japanese MD style cover for it.

I thought Maximum Carnage DID get a Japanese release, it's just rare as hens teeth.

Ooh really? Didn't know that. Neat bit of info to find out about one of my favourite games. I've never even seen a picture of a JMD version of the game, and believe me I looked.

That's crazy, it uses the European Mega Drive logo, how odd. Thanks for posting it!

I came upon this interesting X-Men 2 artwork a while ago while scouring the internet. The curious thing about it is that it was painted by Chris Moeller (a renowed comic book artist from 90's). According to his signature it was painted in '94 - the same year that X-Men 2 was made. This leads me to believe that Sega and/or Marvel had several artists paint the image for the game cover and they chose the one they liked best. Which for the North American version was the popular Ken Steacy version of that image. Oddly enough Europe got a completely nonsensical cover that has nothing to do with the game and is in fact the cover of the Game Gear release X-Men: Game Master's Legacy. So I figured I'd fix that as well.
