    Default Cover Contest (06/08/22-06/14/22): "Get a Grip!"

    First, let's get the rules out of the way...

    THE RULES:
    1) Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    2) Cover must be from a Published Comic Book, Graphic Novel, or Collected Volume!
    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)! (This is in US time)
    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!

    Hopefully, this won't be too difficult. But, please choose a cover where a character simply can't keep their hands to themselves. Characters can either be holding hands or become aggressively "grabby" all of a sudden.

    EXAMPLE:



    Good luck, and happy hunting!

    Not an entry (I’m moving)

    Got to get a grip
    Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
    If you think I'm vain, better shut ya lip
    I can't explain how to be a fat city
    You gotta live large, gotta let it rip
    Skin and bones, it ain't such a pity
    Don't ya gimme no flack, honey shut ya lip
    Ya gotta have stones if you're livin' in the city
    If ya wanna hang loose, gotta get a grip - rip
    Once upon a crime I thought I was cool
    But I don't want to brag
    Once I crossed the line I think I musta
    Zigged when I shoulda zagged
    Got to get a grip

    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.

    Well, I'd say Archie was being rather grabby here!

    Oh, there’s plenty of covers with Archie being grabby with the girls and, on occasion, vice versa. HA!

    Grandpa ain’t lying! Archie has just about ALL the babes! If the world of Riverdale were an anime, he’d have one hell of a harem! HA!
