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 thought I'd write another post to reiterate the theme as I notice some posters have hooked themselves on the word "carry" or "heavy" and posting any cover where someone is carrying or holding someone. That's not what it's about. The phrase "He ain't Heavy" is stated by someone who is acting seflessly and helping someone out even though he gets nothing out of it just like the homeless dude on the cover of the Daredevil cover taking a John Doe to the hospital and expecting nothing in return. There are some good examples that have been posted. From amongst those, I've posted a couple.
Concrete helping a farm out and rescuing a pig amongst others (that's what I gather from the cover):
Ben in a dire situation where he knows if he makes a run for it, he'll get out alive but more important for him is his buddy Bill. For Ben, Bill is physically heavy but he's decided he's not heavy, if you know what I mean, because his goal is to get him out alive and he'll do anything to achieve that goal just as one would for his or her own blood brother/sister.

Kirby101 . I Interpreted the subject as someone helping a person who needed it and not just carrying a dead body. There were only a few covers that matched my take on it.
