    Default Cover Contest Nov 11-17: CONFLICTED

    A deep thinker once observed that "Even the sun shines on a dog's ass some days." Yet another said "Even a stopped clock is right twice a day." That didn't stop people from looking at those clocks for the time, nor did it stop people regarding dog's asses...just because.

    This week's theme will require you go against your instincts, swallow your pride, and perhaps need some deep soul searching to muster up some grudging acceptance:
    CONFLICTED

    Choose a comic book cover from an artist whose work you don't usually like, possibly even hate, but this one time...it's kind of allright. Good, even.

    This one requires we all work on the honor system. Like, it'll be hard to believe someone says "I don't like Alex Ross' work" and then posts the most gorgeous Ross cover we've ever seen and brings us all to tears. (I'm not saying it's impossible to dislike his work but, c'mon, play fair. Challenge yourself!)

    And now for 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, Graphic Novel, or Collected Volume!
    3) Covers must be Posted before Voting Begins!
    4) Voting Begins 12 AM Tuesday PDT (3AM EDT) and Runs Until 12 AM Tuesday PDT (3 AM EDT)! (This is in US time)
    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!

    (I will post my entry later.)
