    Default Comic Book Cover Titles Destroyed

    I always love it when comic book artists incorporate the titles on the cover in their art to depict it being smashed, broken or destroyed. What covers do you like that fit this?

    Here's one of the most famous ones:

    “Now faith, hope, and love remain, and the greatest of these is love.”--1 Corinthians 13:13

    “You had a dream; I have a plan”--Cyclops

    “There's no point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes.”--The Doctor

    All right. Something a little more fun than our biblical discussion. A great Steranko cover:

    I think Adams had the logo cracking in the original version of the X-Men #56 cover yours pays homage to. But they had him change it(can't find an image of the original to post)

    I am still waiting for his Fury/Cap Artist Edition, which is over a year overdue, but will be worth the wait.

    This could have been a good challenge for the Cover Art Thread.
