    Yay, Kirby101!
    And thanks for the great covers this week, everyone.
    I can only hope that the next cover contest features the true star of WandaVision. After all, it's been her all along.

    Congratulations to Kirby101 for a marvelous vision which used some outside the long box thinking.

    And now, what has the captained learned this week in this peak of the week: When we in this contest focus on a single character, we find the special cases which are unlike traditional comic book covers. The Tom King series had many examples of this. We got to see powerful juxtapositions of Vizh and idealized American family life. I picked up the King series in two trades and noted that the inside ads wee for Scarlet Witch's book. Figures, you get your acclaimed and poignant family story and your ex gets ads in it.

    Wow! Winning an eight way tie, that is something. Thanks for the votes and especially to Iron Maiden putting me over the top.
    I don't have any theme ready for a new contest, so I will think about it and post one later today.
    Thanks again for this unexpected win, I am fortunate that there were so many good Vision covers for people to chose from.
    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 have this book; someone gave it to me about 25 years ago. The cover is a bit glossy so the painterly tones are lost This book reprints Avengers #57 and #58 (with cuts), the Vision's debut; and also for some inexplicable reason it includes that silly Lady Liberators story from Avengers #83 (also with cuts). And it's not all in color for a dime (or $1.75); the reprinted material is in black and white.

    Congrats Kirby!

    Is that a pocket sized book or full size? I honestly don't recall ever seeing it anywhere before.

    Hi Scott, it's a pocket book. It was published in 1982.

    I just measured my book. Its height is close to 7 inches and the bottom is 4 inches across. LOL, this image I'm posting (using Kirby's image) is bigger than the book actually is!
