UMBRELLAS

Post a cover that features at least one umbrella.

THE RULES:

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!

Fun fact: The German title of TV's The Avengers was "Mit Schirm, Charme & Melone", which translates back to "With Umbrella, Charme & Bowler Hat".

It's always nice to see Emma as the Hellfire Club's black queen.

Playing with a beach ball usually requires a partner. Is Diana expecting company underneath her umbrella? Jenny Frison variant.

[Iron Maiden]

It's always nice to see Emma as the Hellfire Club's black queen.

I think that is one of the few things Chris Claremont and John Byrne agreed on in the X-Men run....they both remembered that Avengers episode!
