New check mark votes for WEEKLY COVER CONTEST: 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 (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 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. 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.

(Winner @Jesse_O) Week 150 - Movie Poster Covers This week, I've chosen movie poster covers. There are two types of covers allowed. The first type is literally a cover that is direct from a movie poster for a comic about that movie. The second id movie poster homages of which there are a TON!!!! I've included a sample of both from my collection. The first is a Spanish language comic of the Dirty Dozen movie. The second is an homage cover to "A Clockwork Orange". Let's see what everybody can find!!! I'm hoping to see some obscure movies represented!!! |

Seeing the theme, I immediately thought of several Jaws-inspired covers (and I am sure there are another dozen covers out there that I have seen and don’t even remember). Corey beat me to the movie, and he posted one I don’t own. It took me about 40 minutes to dig this one out, and here’s my entry. |

This is a homage not to a specific poster, but to a style, from the famous Movie Poster guy, Saul Bass. |

Quote:Originally Posted by GAC Well, I'll tell you why. LOL I had just woke up and my groggy ass thought it was in the "New to your collection" thread and I hit a couple of Likes. After scrolling to the bottom, I noticed the thread was only 1 page long and obviously that didn't seem right. After realizing where I was, I spoke a few curse words to myself and moved on. Sorry! |
