My first thought was for the next issue, the one with the shark. One of my favourite covers ever!

This doesn't count as an entry, since it's a pulp magazine rather than a comic, but I want to post it anyway, since this Wil Hulsey cover art is considered one of the all-time classics of this particular (peculiar?) genre.
