For my first contest, I'll use my first X-Men comic as the basis for the challenge...
Buy This Comic! Because Reasons!
Post the most reasonable, tear-jerking, intentionally vague, enticing, outrageous, salacious, hilarious, incongruous, or just plain wrong covers telling us that we should buy the comic, why we MUST buy the comic!
The Legal Jargon (Rules)
- Post one (and only one) cover that fits the theme of this week's contest.
- Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume.
- Covers must be posted before voting begins.
- Voting begins 12 AM Wednesday and runs until 12 AM Thursday PST. (3 AM EST).
- Vote by posting the name in BOLD of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most.
- The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period.
- It's okay to discuss the covers but if you think someone's entry doesn't fit the theme or violates the rules, you don't need to argue it in the thread, simply don't vote for it.
- Don't link from comics.org (gcd) or Wikia; the images don't show up here or are too small to do your cover justice. Photobucket images won't show up either.
- Most importantly please remember that we're here to have fun. Enjoy!

Not a comic, so doesn't qualify. But it has to be posted.
Good contest nx, I'll have to think about this one.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!

I'm sorry, Raffi--I can empathize, several times someone's posted something I wanted to post, just as I was fumbling around copying, etc. Originally Posted by Raffi Ol D'Arcy

I know you will come up with a fantastic cover though.
