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 also have hundreds of kool comic book covers that are gambling/money themed. So this theme is going to be like the wild west wide open with plenty of keywords to browse. Anything to do with gambling, money, coins, chips, cards (standard deck or non-standard as well), roulette wheels, casinos, tables, blackjack, and many any other gambling keywords you can come up with will be included. |

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

Going to try something a little older. And you have to admit that Lady Doom is easier on the eyes than Dr. Doom. |

This is not a comic book and thus not eligible for the contest. But it is a good place to show it off. Drawn for us by a local guy. It is me and my best friend doing our favorite pastime, playing poker. It is a large poster. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Dshel61 I don't think voting for a repost or comment post is a big deal. The votes that count are the ones for the original cover. You did fine. Tough choice for me I like em all, but I've always loved that Good, Bad. Fugly comic cover. Got a couple stashed somewhere in my pile of paper... |
