    Default Cover Contest 24 April to 1 May: Post-Apocalypse

    This year is the 40th anniversary of the classic Australian movie Mad Max. And I've recently returned from the Supanove convention that had two of the original stars as guests: Steve Bisley (Goose) and Hugh Keays-Byrne (Toecutter). (Hugh also played Immortan Joe in Mad Max: Fury Road, for those of you only familiar with the most recent incarnation of the franchise.)

    Mad Max started the whole trend of post-apocalyptic movies, and where movies go, comics tend to follow. So, in honour of this milestone, this week's theme:

    Post-Apocalypse

    Post a cover featuring a post-apocalyptic setting.

    THE RULES:
    1) Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    2) Cover must be from a Published Comic Book or Collected Volume!
    3) Covers must be Posted before Voting Begins!
    4) Voting Begins 12 AM Tuesday and Runs Until 12 AM Wednesday PST (3 AM EST)!
    5) Vote by Posting the name in BOLD of the Poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most! A vote need not be in bold, but it does make it easier to Count-The-Votes!
    6) The Winner of the Contest is the Entry with the MOST Votes after the Voting-Period!
    7) It's Okay to Discuss the Covers but if you Think Someone's Entry Doesn't Fit the Theme or Violates the Rules, you Don't need to Argue it in the thread, Simply Don't Vote for It!
    8) Plus: Occasionally Voting will Result in a Tie! The Person Who Started the Thread will do the Counting that Week will Usually call for a TIE-Breaking --Vote from Someone who has Not Yet Voted!
    9) AFTER the Tie-Breaker Vote, Voting Ends and the Winner is Declared by The One Who Started the Thread (or assigned surrogate) and Thus will do the Counting.
    10) HAVE FUN!

    When the world has gone to hell
    And there's nowhere left to turn
    This is our final countdown 'til we die
    When you know your days are numbered
    Make every second last
    This is our final countdown 'til we die
    Post Apocalypse, party till you're dead

    You should probably post the real version of this cover, not an altered one.
