Hello everyone!
I just finished reading 52 Issue 35 (last one of 2006). At the DC Nation column at the end, there is an open call for fans to email in suggestions for Best DC Comic Book Cover of all time. Submissions were to end on Jan 5, 2007.
Anyone know which one won? And hopefully I can find a picture of it? I tried googling for the results but to no avail.
Thanks!

I didn't know about the contest but I would have vote for Legion of Super-Heroes 293

I agree with the Crisis 7 cover. Iconic, it's what popped into my head before clicking the link.

Sure, it goes for an entirely different mood, but my current favorite has got to be Batman #97.

It's just how nonchalante and utterly chill Bathound manages to look while Batman and Robin stare at him as if they're about to sh*t a few bricks.
I need some serious help.

Yup, all the ones in the link above. But I'd include Detective Comics #27 in there.

I personally like Action Comics 484 and Flash 323. Truly iconic gems, both of them.

It's not very often one sees Superman cry...

I'm a bit partial to all things Watchmen related.

is an oft-overlooked classic.
And this is my all time favorite DC comic.

I always wanted to see a Sergio Aragones giant cover/poster with all the DC characters in a crowd scene...

I couldn't possibly say which one I think is best...but I'm absolutely certain I know which one is worst.

why is Superman bawling so iconic?

Another great one.
As Batman fan of course its by far the best :)
First Batman story i read and i was hooked from the cool way of drawing the young Bruce's face. That shows his emotions much more than the 1000 times you have seen that scene in in his stories.
why is Superman bawling so iconic?
Superman does not cry. Therefore, seeing him cry is very disturbing.

I always thought this cover was really great.

I don't have a scan, but I always loved DC 1,000,000 #4.
Superman does not cry. Therefore, seeing him cry is very disturbing.
Problem being that he seems to cry all the time now.

I have that poster! Awesome! :)
It is both interesting in its symmetry and form and rather funny too.
