    Default Cover Contest,Sept. 29th - Oct. 5th: Frank Brunner

    A Star from the Bronze Age, mostly known for his work on Dr. Strange and Howard the Duck, Frank Brunner produced some amazing covers. He has since moved on to work in TV and movies, though still does commissions and illustrations. Post a cover drawn by the talented Mr. Brunner.


    The usual RULES apply, of course:
    1) Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    2) Cover must be from a Published Comic Book, Collected Volume, or Graphic Novel!
    3) Covers must be Posted before Voting Begins!
    4) Voting Begins 12 AM Tuesday and Runs Until 12 AM Wednesday PDT (3 AM EDT)!
    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!

    My example is a more obscure title with a great Frank Brunner cover.

    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!

Since it says it is insecure my browser won't allow me to see it. can you add the name of the publication you entered and I can probably find it somewhere to see what it is. I hope I didn't pick the same cover as you did.

    While looking for covers, I found this mock "cover" Brunner did of Marvel Team Up #151 (the series ended with issue #150) that appeared in Marvel Zombies #5 (2010) This may have been the last time he did something for Marvel since he's into other things these days. Too bad it's not real.....I might have used this instead!
