Close, but not quite. That's a program guide, not a comic.

I would love this cover no matter what...

But the return of Wonder Pig is just icing on the cake! It's just missing Super Grover, but he's owned by a different company now... :frown:

More for the content than the cover? I was looking for a cover depicting the "Cereal Convention" and remembered that McKean just arted everything up.

Exactly. I looked for some kind of convention exclusive Star Wards comics, but I don't think they've done any.

[Ben D]

Schornforce this week.

[worstblogever]

GeneralReadingMan chose what I thought I was originally going to go with before I found that Spirit cover. So that one.

[the4thpip]

I'll go with Shawn Hopkins.

[DubipR]

Schornforce gets my vote this week.

[Puma]

Schornforce

[Spackling Compound]

This was a hard hunt! Cheers to GeneralReadingMan for finding a fairly obscure cover. He has my vote.









I would have gone with StoneGold but I was afraid if he won the next contest would be "1983 Blue Camaros" or "Australian Dentists".

[Greg Hatcher]

thwhtGuardian. That's from 'our' show, the one my 7th graders and I work every year, so I feel obligated to root for the home team.

[MWGallaher]

the4thpip gets my vote. I'd almost forgotten Marc Hansen. I really enjoyed a lot of his comics back in the 80s.

[Shawn Hopkins]

Generalreadingman. Seeing Iron Man with a nose just pushes it over the top.

[Mac Danny]

GeneralReadingMan this week.

[ChadH]

Voting for Worstblogever this week.

[Joe Acro]

I vote for Greg Hatcher.

[Schornforce]

I vote Joe Acro! Those are some creative costume choices for the Archie gang.

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

Eeny-meeny-miney-mo gives my vote to Shawn Hopkins over Schornforce.

[Sagafan]

GeneralReadingMan for me.

[DonC]

Joe Acro this week. Even if would have preferred Veronica in the Slave Leia costume.

[GeneralReadingMan]

Is this over now? Because I think I won.

[Sagafan]

Voting ends at midnight. Puma usually tallies things up in the morning.

For whoever wins here's Gloryquest's site that shows the past themes in case you don't want to do a repeat.

[GeneralReadingMan]

Ah thanks, I didn't know since it's already 12:30 in my time zone.

[Schornforce]

Ah thanks, I didn't know since it's already 12:30 in my time zone.

Voting ends at 12am GMT, so by my latest check, if you're still the winner in 28 minutes or so, you can post a new thread. :tongue:

EDIT: Okay, I just checked and it's after midnight GMT, so if no one objects, my tally is:

1 vote each- worstblogever, Greg Hatcher, the4thpip, and thwhtGuardian

2 votes- Shawn Hopkins, Joe Acro

3 votes- Schornforce

and the winner this week with 5 votes- GeneralReadingMan congrats!

[Puma]

Just to clarify- we've always closed voting at midnight PST.

GMT is Greenwich Mean Time so midnight on Tuesday would be 8am EST and 11am PST.

[the4thpip]

I also got a vote! I demand a recount!! :mad:

[MWGallaher]

I also got a vote! I demand a recount!! :mad:

Yeah, that was my vote! I've been disenfranchised!
I'm calling my team of international lawyers from the Classic Comics board...

[Schornforce]

I also got a vote! I demand a recount!! :mad:

You're right! It was even on my list! That's what I get for doing a count at 3AM... :tongue:

My apologies to you and MWGallaher.
