    "Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
    I'm stepping through the door
    And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
    And the stars look very different today
    For here
    Am I sitting in a tin can
    Far above the world
    Planet Earth is blue
    And there's nothing I can do

    The challenge is that like a lot of Ross art, it appears online without logo which would have been a huge help in placing the image. A Google search of the image itself helped me.

    OK, as my first entry has already been taken, I will go with something a little less common than Planet Comics...

    Yeah, now I see it is also marked as a variant. When I went to the Marvel Unlimited site, they naturally used the regular cover.

    It seems like all the best covers are taken. I really like many of them. Going to be hard to find one this week.

    I can share with you the alternate cover I was going to use.
    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.

    If you want to PM me the link(s) I'll take a look. If I like what I see I might use it. Thanks

    edit: Actually, I think I found one. Assuming it qualifies.

    I thought this was pretty cool. The Starmus Festival in Zurich honored some of the Apollo astronauts; Buzz Aldrin (Apollo 11) Michael Collins (Apollo 11), Harrison Schmidt (Apollo 17) Charlie Duke (Apollo 16) and Al Worden (Apollo 15) Queen's Brian May, who attends regularly and has a degree in astrophysics, teamed up with an orchestra lead by composer Hans Zimmer to honor them with a rendition of We Are The Champions. Unfortunately the vocalist botched the lyrics a bit. It's a shame Freddie is no longer with us. The astronauts come on stage towards the end.
