| I figured I’d pull my submission for this contest, seeing as it was one of the books that wasn’t “keeping it holy”. This is the first time I’ve EVER felt pressure to do this. It’s nothing personal against you Ed, or the subject this week. I’d just rather not be scrutinized for a work of art that appealed to me and/or possibly others which I wanted to share here. | ||

| @Zombiebigfoot - I would be the last person to judge anyone by a cover they posted. Hell, I just won the Sex Sells contest, so who am I to say what is appropriate or not? | ||

| If someone thinks it's inappropriate or doesn't fit the subject matter, then all they have to do is not vote for it. There have been covers I didn't like and said as much, but I've never requested to have one taken down. Not all tastes are the same good, bad, or otherwise. If it's inappropriate for the forum, then the mods will delete it. Other than that, I wouldn't worry about it. | ||

| @DrWatson Yep. I’m sticking with Areala battling the Devil. A classic good versus evil battle. Isn’t that what it’s all about. (Religion I mean). A Holy War of sorts. |

| In the immortal words of KC and the Sunshine Band: “Keep it comin’ love, keep it comin’ love, Don’t stop it now, don’t stop it no ....” So please don’t be afraid to post and let the covers speak for themselves. PS - I am surprised that two DC covers from the very beginning of the BA haven’t appeared yet. |

| @Gotlift - That's a beautiful gun, but I always loved the 1918 Mauser C96 (Broomstick handle) model pistol that the Manhunter by Archie Goodwin and Walt Simonson used in those backup stories from Detective Comics in the 1970's. | ||

 To answer your question, no, this is not where the comics go to die.

| @Gotlift Thanks! I didn't know the meaning of PAX CHRISTI before...now it makes more sense to me. This series is a spin-off from Warrior Nun Areala. @Mountie73 Thank you! Your entry is cool too...never seen the pope on a comic cover before this.  |

Gotlift private msg quote post Address this user | |
| @CatCovers Your right too. The word Pax came from kissing a tablet depicting the crucification or the kiss of peace. Christi meaning Christ It’s also the name of a religious group. I interpreted it, looking at the picture and what was about to happen. I probably stretched the interpretation a little but we’re all on the same page.  |

CatCovers private msg quote post Address this user | |
| @Gotlift Not to be overly pedantic, but as a writer I get passionate about precision in language. Pax is simply the Latin word for peace, and predates Jesus by centuries. It was later appropriated as a synonym for tablets (as you say), or crucifixes or reliquaries. Peace being a fairly big deal in Christianity, the word got spread around a lot, particularly in the early days of the church. But its roots have nothing to do with Jesus. Having typed all that, I feel like it might come off as heavy on the jackassery. Didn’t mean it as such (tone being famously hard to convey online), just splitting a friendly hair. |
