    ^^^Regarding that one FLY cover you posted.
    eBay has that book listed as being Neal Adam’s’ first cover.

    However, everything else I just found on that issue says that Adams contributed one panel, the last one on page 11 and that it was some of his earliest known professional work…:

    Hope you enjoy the random trivia!

    Yes, that is known among Comic fans as Adams first Super Hero work in comics in that panel. But I have never seen the the cover attributed to him. And good resource sites like GCD don't say it's Adam's. The only think on that cover that could be Adams is the Fly figure. The artist in the room is definitely not him. I would say the Fly doesn't either, but it's very early in his career, so hard to say. Sounds like a seller trying to push up the price with bull$h*t.

    Not an entry.

    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    seismic-2, because I like it and also it's historical significance.

    Englehart Humperdinck's cover is ridiculous enough to get my vote.
    links to my books:
    "TWISTED HOLIDAY HORROR TALES"
    @ comiXology
    @ IndyPlanet
    "Blues Ratz"
    @ Amazon: Spec. BLUE Version Paperback
