Weekly Cover Contest 245 - Bondage & Torture!14598

Pictures? We don't need no stinking pictures. brysb private msg quote post Address this user
The rules:

You vote three check marks for your FIRST favorite
Two check marks for the SECOND favorite
One check mark for the THIRD favorite.
You do not need to vote for three covers, but it is strongly encouraged!!! Let's have fun with this!!!

A new theme will be chosen each week, so participants must find a comic book that fits the theme

- One entry per person.
- Must be real comic books in circulation.
- Magazine size books are also okay.
- The book does not have to be in your collection.
- Variants 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 "three check marks" system.
- Don't vote early.
- The winner will be the cover with the most check marks.
- Vote three check marks for a favorite, two for the second favorite and one for the third favorite.

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

In the event of a tie, the deciding factor will be if the entry was of a book in a CBCS slab (only one book in the set needs to be graded; if multiple are CBCS graded then the highest grade applies). If both books are in a CBCS slab (or neither are) then the cover with the most three star votes wins. If they are still tied, then the one with the most 2 star votes wins. If the tie remains, then a sudden death contest will decide the winner. All tied contestants are to enter a new cover based upon the theme of that contest. At 9 pm EST, Friday, the cover with the most votes wins.

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

The list of previous contests and winners can be found in a pinned thread on the top of the forum.

** Please No Early Voting


This week's cover theme is BONDAGE & TORTURE

@Fads89 I would say the Jessica Jones #5 cover would not qualify because there is no torture, no bodily marks or blood to indicate she had been tortured & I see no threat whatsoever that she is about to be tortured. I only see the bondage.

But if you do not wish to change your cover that is fine, people can vote based on what they feel is acceptable.

Now the Lois Lane cover where she is bound I would say is acceptable because Green Lantern is blasting her with his ring, so that would be considered torture IMO.

Precisely my thought when I chose it...it is just within the edge of your requirements cause of green lanterns little blasting thing...
