    Default Cover Contest 12/9-12/15: "Michael Golden"

    I like it when a favorite artist is highlighted for these contests. I recently purchased the Michael Golden Micronauts Artist Edition, printing original art from that series in full size. So why not a contest featuring one of the stand out artists of the Bronze Age who was also a superb cover artist. So post a cover by the talented Mr. Golden.

    The book I mentioned:


    And the original Micronauts #2 cover


    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!
    *) Not a rule, but it has been suggested that we post the title and number of the comic we post.
    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!
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!

    I absolutely LOVE this one! I'm also a (pun intended) huge Psycho-Man fan!

    So it's based on Kirby, in this case that makes it all the better. This cover would make a swell T-Shirt I think.

    Michael Golden! He sure liked to "ham it up" sometimes

    Every day is a gift, not a given right.
