    Armor #1 (Continuity Comics)

    This cover is a huge "WTF!" that makes you crave to read the book ASAP:

    First issue of a First comic featuring the first appearance of Mark Wheatley and Marc Hempel's Mars. Not my favorite, because Nexus carried over from Capital and started at four, but one of the most striking covers ever published by the company that wasn't done by Steve Rude.

    Not only my favorite first issue cover (#169 WAS the first issue of any solo DOCTOR STRANGE comic, as he carried over numbering from STRANGE TALES), but also my FAVORITE COVER -period.

    I doubt I'll win with this one, but I love this image. Alex Ross' artwork is spotless as always and it draws evocative imagery straight from Crisis, an event that the new Secret Wars shares several plots and themes with (crumbling of the multiverse, various iterations of heroes from different universes meeting, a war against of powerful godlike figure, the fusing of multiple earths to create a new world). The issue itself is rather sentimental because as a #1, instead of beginning a story, it completely ended everything with the final page of the book saying it all.

    Not a #1, but my favorite image to the first issue of a run



    Cool, weird, dangerous. A eye-catching visual that promised a new take on Marvel's mutants for the 21st century.

    Kung Fu Panda in the back ground? It could be ... ok probably not, but I made you think about it.

    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.
