    Default Cover contest may 26 - june 01: Fake it till you make it

    Someone floated the idea of fake covers back during the red shirts contest and i thought that sounded pretty fun, so going w. that.
    Here's the one i would have posted if the contest had happened, now i'm making an example of it...:


    Now for the copy/pasting.
    The normal Rules apply:

    1) Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    2) You NOT talk about Fight Club!
    3) Covers must be Posted before Voting Begins!
    4) Voting Begins 12 AM Tuesday PST and Runs Until 12 AM Wednesday PST (3 AM EST)!
    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!

    OK. I think I have a better grasp on this now... I'll acknowledge the project known as "The Hawkeye Initiative" with my entry (the one on the right is the fake cover, if you can't tell):

    Just looking for clarification here, we're supposed to post a cover that wasn't actually published? i.e. a fan-made or commissioned 'cover' right?

    Yes, he means post a fake cover that was not for the real comic.

    I love this one.

    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 almost went with this idea the last time it was my turn to create a contest.

    I wasn’t sure I kept the link I found… Yes, I did!

    ^^^well, hopefully you didn’t just give anyone the incentive to lock/delete this thread by pointing that out.
