I ordered the 1st one but this looks horrid imo.

As noted the copied clouds and bad layout of the characters just looks ugly.

I want an Ironman 2 Steelbook, but not this.

True, but at least the text covers it there, making it less noticeable. It'd literally take 2 seconds for them to fix, but we all know they're too lazy to put any actual effort in to these.

Yep.

Clone, Heal, Clone done.

I have to fix tons of images with repeat textures or blemishes.

It's not hard when you know where to sample from.

This is astonishingly bad artworking sadly.

Yup, I use that technique a lot too. Granted it can be difficult to perfect at times, depending on the image you're working with... but clouds are literally one of the easiest textures to clone and rework without it looking obvious.

But, it's from an original poster which I thought everyone prefers:-

Personally don't like the clouds one bit (even though the majority of posters have them for some reason) and would have preferred a more elegant background, more like the IM 1 steelbook:-

Swirling clouds suit this artwork better:-

They could still have kept the red border (Thor's cape) to tie these in with the others in the collection.
That’s not how they’re grouping though. All the Captain America’s had a beige border, all the Iron Man’s have the red border, all the Thors will have this stone border. I imagine if they eventually do more sets (i don’t think there are any other trilogies in the MCU yet since Avengers is a tetralogy) that the borders will match up.
