    Going for Riv86672
    but honorable mention to Nschornhorst
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    The contest has hung by its neck until deadline, and the results are in:

    1 vote: kjn, Nschornhorst, Ravin' Ray
    2 votes: Ajax_X, Conn Seanery, seismic-2
    3 votes: Riv86672, Stony
    4 votes in a 3-knot tie: MRP, nx01a, and Shalla Bal!

    So we are in zombie contest mode! Will someone please cut down the winner?

    Damn, I forgot to vote yesterday.
    Guess it works out though. Going w. Shalla Bal. I’m a huge Challengers fan, AND that’s some good Kubert.

    And thanks to Ravin' Ray, nx01a, LordMikel for the votes this week!

    Congrats to Shalla Bal.

    And once again it appears my love of EC covers (this one by Wally wood) has done me no favours.

    Congratulations, Shalla Bal! I guess I’m at least as sensitive as Tami: I didn’t want to look at these covers anymore to vote…

    But, luckily, Riv86672 was there.

    Congratulations to Shalla Bal for a cover which properly showcased the Death Cord. I so enjoy voting for the winning cover.

    As for what the captain has learned this week is that Peter webbing Gwen has more controversy than just a superhero's GF being killed. Who knew we comic fans could be so picky and detail oriented?
