WEEKLY COVER CONTEST - KIRB(Y) Your Enthusiasm7963
It was a one trick pony show but always hilarious. | GAC private msg quote post Address this user | |
A new 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. - Re-post these rules in your new thread to keep them easy to find and for new folks who want to play.

Arguably the most creative and greatest contributor to the artform. Let's see your favourite Jack Kirby drawn covers from any era. Here is my submission. I always loved this cover. |

I had no way of knowing that 9.8 graded copies signed by Adam Hughes weren't what you were looking for. | drchaos private msg quote post Address this user | |

This is not eligible for the contest but an extraordinary example of Jack Kirby's genius and brilliance. It's hard not to get emotional looking at art like this....and the examples are endless. |

This one has always stuck in my head! The black background and Cap and Falcon’s vantage point. Plus the black shadows of the people down below projecting on the wall. Just a fantastic cover! |

So many to choose from!! For some reason, I’ve always liked yellow covers (red are great too). |
