John Severin, my chosen artist for this past week's great Kull cover, is an Eisner Hall of Famer (Voter's Choice). So this week lets cast a very broad net and have some fun with that and pick a cover by anyone on that Hall of Fame list (Judges Choice or Voter's Choice) and post any cover by that particular artist. Good luck!

For reference:

I used to love reading my dads Uncle Scrooge comics as a kid. So in memory of that I am of course going to go with a Carl Barks cover from one of the first comics I can remeber reading.

I'll have to go with Burne Hogarth; an artist and an educator.

If it wasn't for 2018 Eisner winner Rumiko Takahasi, I wouldn't have found my way to this forum. This is from my own collection.

So I looked for Sal Buscema to post the Frogmen cover, but no go.

Then I considered Gene Colan's work, but frankly that reeks of narcissism.

Then I decided on both Gilbert Hernandez and Jaime Hernandez with Love and Rockets 50 featuring some of the many reasons they were voted in in 2017.

Someone has to post some Wally Wood herein, so I might as well be "that guy".

[Kirby101]

No surprise who I am going with. Picking which cover was the real problem.

Standing in the hall of fame
And the world's gonna know your name
'Cause you burn with the brightest flame
And the world's gonna know your name
And you'll be on the walls of the hall of fame



If Matt Baker ever did a bad cover, I haven't seen it.

Gonna give it up for John Romita Sr.
