Cover Contest Week 51 - Unlikely Pairing4089

Collector Atakmunky7 private msg quote post Address this user
A theme will be chosen each week, so participants must find a comic book cover that fits the theme.

- One entry (one book) per person.
- Must be a real comic book in circulation.
- Magazine size books are also okay.
- The book does not have to be in your collection.
- Variants and sketch covers are acceptable.
- The previous winner is allowed to win in this contest.

Each week we will vote on who had the best cover.

- Friday begins the new contest.
- Wednesday at 12 noon EST is the cutoff which starts voting that will go through Thursday at 11:59 PM EST.
- Please vote through the built in "Thumbs Up" system.
- One vote per person.
- Don't vote early.

The winner will choose the next theme and begin a new thread.

- In the event of a tie, the deciding factor will be if your photo was of a book in a CBCS slab. If both books are not in a CBCS slab then there will be a sudden death tie breaker overtime submission by both contestants.

- Repost these rules in your new thread to keep them easy to find and for new folks who want to play.

@Towmater I have a feeling this theme may have the biggest selection of comics I've never seen/heard of before... should be great. Yours is definitely new to me.

That's what I'm hoping for. Should be a few crazy submissions for this one.

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. drchaos private msg quote post Address this user
Only Mark Millar would take a Logan that refuses to pop his claws and team him up with a blind Superhero who was once known as a sharpshooter.

Ebay lists it as a Bulletproof store variant (searched TMNT and Dell'Otto).

There is also at least one sketch cover:

@kaptainmyke it is indeed Dell'Otto, why do you not already own one?
