    Default Cover Contest July 3-9: Where the Heart is

    This week's theme is HOME. Since a certain young wallcrawler is far from it this week, I thought we could share covers that feature some character's home. However you choose to interpret that-- home away from home, actual house, sliding into home, whatever.



    Now for those wacky, zany rules:

    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!

    The most famous home in the Marvel Universe.



    And here is Kirby's diagram.

    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!

    ChadH 'cuz of the story, concept, and the sheer realism. Except, of course, for the 616 which Marvel claims isn't a thing. But we all know differently, don't we?

    So many different takes on this topic, but I'm voting for MRP. Mostly cause I'm a sucker for Clea.

    My vote goes to Kirby101. Always had a soft spot for the Baxter Building!

    Enigmatic Undead, because before the doghouse popped in my brain, the often-exploded Xavier Mansion was what I thought of.

    Going with ChadH

    and really liked Tami's and seismic-2's entries. Hard to choose between these 3 for me.
