| 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 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.

Technically, this is a pulp. As such, it doesn't qualify for the contest. But I own this copy and I got caught up in a bidding war to get it. So, to justify spending too much for it, I like sharing it whenever possible. So this is just for your viewing pleasure!! |

 I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for.

| Every comic book here deserves a vote. Great picks, great artwork, and high quality. I couldn't decide so I went with Lois lane simply because there are 3 damsels in distress! | ||
