Cover Contest 12/2-12/8: "This is nothing like the comic book!"

[nx01a]

Ever see a movie or TV series or game or (insert other adaptation here) that is vastly different from its comic book source material? This week, I'd like you all to post comics which, despite sharing the same basic premise, have adaptations which differ greatly from the original comic.

For example...


...and...


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!

"But, captain," you say, "Wonder Woman's TV show and movie were very true to her comic book."

Cathy Lee Crosby says "Hi".

Characterization of majority of the characters is wrong, and even Joseph Dredd's most repeated phrase/word is wrong.




The other movie isn't accurate either, but you all knew I'd do that.
