I did! It's a pretty sweet variant! I'm having to choose which cover I want/appeals to me. It's proving pretty hard. I like the regular cover for issue 2 and am digging the Keron Grant variant for issue 3. I don't have a Skottie Young cover so I leaning in that direction. However I'm taking a wait and see approach.

The one thing I though that Marvel had over DC was more creative covers. I don't read DC but I like the stability it has. Even though they go through way more events and relaunches, they seem more tethered to continuity than Marvel does. I did see though that DC pushed back the solicitations for Dark Knight and cancelled the finales for several titles (which is the worst; cancel it after the arc). Most of my DC info comes from my two local LCSs. One likes DC more because they have more compelling exciting stories and the other really doesn't like Marvel or DC (modern comics circa 05) but prefers DC. From an outsider perspective it seems like the stories are more derivative and the villains tired. Whereas with Marvel, there are compelling/creative premises even though the story might never get fleshed out. And the villains at Marvel could be categorized in the same manner as DC.

That is a great point about new fans jumping on board with the return of Namor. It's not something I immediately factored in even though many comic books nerds disregarded the title because he got offed.
