    Default COVER CONTEST for January 18 to January 24 - IMPERIOUS REX!

    My previous contest theme was to note the 60th anniversary of the debut of Spider-Man and Doctor Doom. This time it is one of Marvel's legacy characters, Prince Namor the Sub-Mariner. Last year he had his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Wakanda Forever







    Here are the usual RULES:

    1) Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    2) Covers 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).
    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!

    Going with this fine cover by Subby's creator, Bill Everett, on his return to his character in the 70s.

    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!

    Stronger than a whale
    he can swim anywhere.
    He can breath underwater
    and go flying through the air.
    The noble Sub-Mariner, Prince of the deep.
    So beware you deadly demons.
    Lord Namor of Atlantis
    is the Prince of the Deep

    This is a terrible choice for me to pick just one cover. But I've waffled long enough. I have to pick a Big John Buscema cover, and even then there, I'm torn. But I'm going with this one.

    Namor the Sub-Mariner, Marvel's oldest character, will have been published for 85 years in 2024. So where's my GOOD Namor anniversary ongoing, Marvel?

    I'll always think it's funny that the old Marvel Superheroes 60's show took this issue and the wedding of Reed and Sue and erased all references to the FF ( and called the X-Men the "Heroes for Peace" ??) and turned them into a Submariner episode.
