    Don't know if it's supposed to b that way, but on the flying saucer book's cover, the automobile and the spotlight make a footprint.

    My favorite was Winter Soldier #5. Also Hellblazer, Sonic and Catwoman. I wrote up reasoning over here: http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com...preview-51612/

    For me, that Fury Max cover takes the trophy, followed by the Shadow cover from Ryan Sook.
    Fiona Staples' Saga cover seems a bit like grand standing. It's creative and original, but it lacks class imho. Third place at best.
    To escape criticism - do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.

    I agree completely about Johnson's Fury cover. He always brings the good. But I'm not impressed by the Shadow. Not a huge fan of Lee's current style, and I've seen much better from Sook. This one just seems rther pedestrian.

    What do you mean by "classy" (i.e., I know what the word means but I don't see any relevance for it in this context)? I think Staples Saga cover is an effective juxtaposition of moods.
