It was a tough week and a challenging topic. Thanks for voting for mine at least!

Well deserved.

Congratulations to ed2962 for a Dominating Chaykin cover. It's a powerful visual representation of what such bold action looked and felt like. The lighting as well as the limited color palette add to the intensity.

Parachutes and the Peak of the Week where the captain prattle about what he's learned and what most of you already know. I will freely admit that I knew what a parachute was before the contest started. By the way, if any of you has the opportunity to create and race a Pinewood Derby car as the Cub Scouts do, a driver with a cape finds that cape often becoming a parachute and slowing the car down. Don't me how I know that. Anyway, what has he learned THIS WEEK! In a medium where people have super-powers and fly, teleport, and run at near light speeds, actual physics be damned, the parachute allows a mere mortal to leap from the air into action and enter the fray in a brave (or foolhardy) manner. The large, fairly simplistic design makes a bold statement for such characters in funny books. With a few simple arcs one can show bravery in style. What more do we need?
