    Default Is it just me?

    Um......is there something going on here with these covers or am I just seeing a weird coincidence? Same Wednesday to pick up....not many new comics this week and this happens? I mean, they both even have a gargoyle!!
    I am committed to the idea that any work of art should be judged on its own merit, not on the behavior or beliefs of its author.

    Given the amount of comics published each week, it's probably more surprising that there isn't similar covers more often. Both Daredevil and Batman are also similar in that they are grounded in an urban, often gothic, environment.

    I think there's a weirder coincidence between the Nightwing and Batgirl covers from a few months ago, where both had half-skull compositions.

    This is just a case where you have urban superheros who happen to us a similar composition.

    It's a generic (as in very used, I don't want to sound mean) compo. I don't see anything wrong.

    Hmmm it still is pretty coincidental, mirrored versions of almost the same image. But again, both are similar heroes in similar cities.
