I feel your pain
Oh, Joe. I feel your pain. As an amateur illo in college trying to do a weekly page for the school paper while managing immature residents and closed-loop equations for microprocessor systems, I had flattened my forehead either banging my head on the table or collapsing onto it in utter exhaustion at 4 AM.

Here's a thought - put Red front and center, crouching, and Mav and Wolvie behind him. It's a different visual cue, especially moving fan-fave Wolvie back more.

Can't wait to see the final cover!!!

Suggestion
Hey Joe, just an idea. I know you have a lot on your hands, but maybe this might help. There was a recent cover to New Avengers that gave me the idea. The cover had Wolverine closest to the front, with half of him sticking into the picture and half of him cut off, with the other Avengers in the background. The suggestion: Wolverine, maybe just his face, or half of it, closest to the front and taking up part of the page. In the background, Red and Maverick (maybe something like no. 9, that was pretty sweet)

Anyway, good luck. Your other covers for the series were really sweet, so I trust you to come up with something good.
