    Default Cover Contest Jan 17 to Jan 23: Out With The Old, In With The New

    Press play:




    I got the idea for this week's theme from last week's entry by PaulBullion, whose cover featured Green Lanterns Hal Jordan and Kyle Rayner.
    (I know it's Parallax and Green Lantern, but close enough)
    So this week's theme is: Out With The Old, In With The New

    Show me covers that feature successive versions of the same character.
    For example, someone taking on the mantle of a hero from the old, or a Golden Age plus Modern Age version of the same character.
    The cover must feature AT LEAST TWO versions of the same character.

    Suggestions include: Flash (Jay Garrick and Wally West), Sandman (Wesley Dodds and Morpheus), Spider-Man (Peter Parker and Miles Morales), etc
    Here is PaulBullion's entry from last week to show what I mean:



    And now for some Rules from our sponsors:
    1) Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    2) Cover must be from a Published Comic Book or Collected Volume!
    3) Covers must be Posted before Voting Begins!
    4) Voting Begins 12 AM Tuesday 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 another volunteer surrogate). Winner picks the new topic.


    Have fun, y'all!

    This was the first cover I thought of when I read the contest.

    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.

    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!

    I hope this fits the "same character/two versions" criteria...though it certainly fits the "Out With The Old, In With The New" blurb in the OP and thread title

    Out of the old
    I've gotta find my way
    Into the new
    Give anything it takes
    I wanna know
    If no one knew my name
    Would my wildest dreams feel like home?
