    Foxley, straight jacket that fits the Atom. That's a win.
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    Shalla Bal and her House of M cover. I should have thought of that one since it's probably one of the most far reaching examples of how one character was put in limbo for years over the power of one story. Not that I agreed with Bendis's take on Scarlet Witch, mind you. But that's another debate

    Honorable mentions: Kirby101 (beat me to that one!) , MRP, Tami

    Congratulations to Shalla bal for a marvelous cover which bring the feeling of madness into a powerful facial closeup. Nicely done!

    As to what the captain has learned this week, he has been perusing the results and the top two covers are facial close-ups with a misuse of power. It appears wehn we see our heroes lose their minds, we prefer it be unencumbered by strait jackets. Unless, of course, those jackets are Atom-sized.

    Thanks to Chad for the vote.

    Wow, thank you! Special thanks to those who voted for that cover. Wanda is one of my favorite characters and even though I hated that storyline, I thought it was a striking if heartbreaking cover.

    I'm checking Chad's topics list, new contest up very soon

    Great win Shalla! Like you though the imagery is surreal, I hate that it's for Wanda.
