Cover Contest 11/25-12/1: "It Was Ok, But The Book Was Better"

[ed2962]

I thought it might be fun to do covers that featured adaptations of stories that first appeared in other media ( books, plays, movies etc). The only restriction though is that it has to be an actual adaptation, not the continuing adventures of licensed characters. So Star Wars #1-6 which adapted "A New Hope" counts, but Star Wars #7 which features original stories with the same characters wouldn't.



But otherwise go nuts, it doesn't have to be limited to just books and movies. If you can think of a radio play or epic poem or opera ( hint, hint) that was made into a comic, go for it!

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!

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!
