GameStop and it's overseas brand ZING Pop Culture both used the same cover artwork for the Vader Down one-shot. They repeated this with the first issue of the 4-part Han Solo mini-series. Han Solo #1 has 17 different covers.
The GameStop PowerUp Rewards exclusive cover is in color and shows the Millennium Falcon participating in the dangerous Dragon Void Run race. An inset image shows that Han and Chewbacca are the pilots.
The ZING exclusive uses the same artwork as the GameStop PowerUp Rewards cover, except it is in black and white and the logo has been replaced by the ZING logo.
When you compare the two covers, it is cool to see how the colorist enhanced the explosion to obscure the debris and wing on the space craft behind the Falcon. There is a skeleton of some creature in the upper right hand corner of the art, but nowhere in the series do we see the skeleton making this a strange detail to be found on this cover.
