| 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.

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

Some people might consider Steve Rogers switching to Nomad as a downgrade, but I enjoyed the storyline. |

I know #252 and Secret Wars #8 are the "keys" but this artwork blows them away. |

Millie the Model #93, November 1959. Story by Stan Lee, art and cover by Stan Goldberg. Overstreet has "Last Dan DeCarlo issue?" noted in their guide. While this isn't a new costume, I think this was right before they debuted a new look for the character. This cover is clearly inspired by Dan DeCarlo's work, who is famous for the Archie look. |

Maybe a bit more of a change than just a new suit... but it's the first thing I thought of in my own collection |
