What are some of your all-time favorite Covers of X-Men titles?
There are so many to choose from and IMO the splash pages may even be more exciting as an exhibit, but for many it's these covers that first drew us in to what's in 'em...
Let's make a show of it?
If you have any stories or reasons to share for why the covers you've chosen are important please do!
A few of mine:
Excalibur #4 by Alan Davis

Uncanny X-Men #210 by John Romita Jr
Uncanny_X-Men_Vol_1_210.jpg
New Mutants #20 by Bill Sienkiewicz

Wow! Disregarding the Nightcrawler cover that was exactly what I was going to post. I like that gritty cover style. Originally Posted by sungila

Creed is very sexy here, I must say. lol This is in my top 5 pix of him. If only Yuriko & Domino weren't in the way!!!!
I also LOVE this variant cover of Deadpool
Puts Ryan Reynolds to shame!!
Both covers by Rhazzah
I love all the Marvel art I have seen from him, except the Weapon X 17 & 18 Covers. Neither were high points, imo. Though I know that's a minority opinion for many who loved the chapter 17 cover.

"Best All-Time" might be a stretch, but I still have a soft spot for these Psylocke-centric masterpieces...

Maybe not the absolute greatest of all time, but I love a good homage.*

"Best of all time" feels like a bit of pressure, I'm just gonna post some of my favorite recent Jean covers, all by Stephanie Hans.

Bill Sienkiewicz definitely is on my list. I'll post a few of his covers later.
