and thanks for the vote icctrombone. The joke there is that Superman's consciousness was put into Power Girl while Batman's consciousness was put into Huntress for that issue.
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.
Cause of How GREAT Amora Looks in the Cover, My Vote goes to;
Iron Maiden!

Though I must admit I was slightly disappointed no-one posted an Aliens cover.

Congratulations MRP!
And thanks to everyone who voted for me. I had no idea the promise of an Aaron Lopresti pin-up would be such a enticement!
