    Default CBR Cover Contest: June 7th to June 13th -- Respect Your Elders!

    After some mulling over of the previous winners thread, and with Father's Day just around the corner, I thought it may be appropriate to have a theme related to the older folks (no offense, Dad). That said, the topic for this week's cover contest is...

    Respect Your Elders!

    Post covers featuring characters alongside their parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, mentors and teachers, or just someone older in general! And feel free to interpret 'respect' anyway you like!

    For example...





    The Rules:

    Post One (& ONLY ONE) Cover that fits the theme of this Week's Contest!
    Cover must be from a Published Comic Book or Collected Volume!
    Covers must be Posted before Voting Begins!
    Voting Begins 12 AM Tuesday and Runs Until 12 AM Wednesday PST (3 AM EST)!
    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!
    The Winner of the Contest is the Entry with the MOST Votes after the Voting-Period!
    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!


    Plus:
    Occasionally Voting will Result in a Tie! The Person Who Started the Thread and Thus will do the Counting that Week will Usually call for a TIE-Breaking Vote from Someone who has Not Yet Voted!
    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.

    I was goingto go with Transmetropolitan #8 first, but that's more a story that follows this theme than a cover.

    The theme immediately reminded me of the classic relationship between sensei (先生) and gakusei (学生) / musuko (息子).

    From back when the X-Men all respected each other, loved each other, and loved Xavier.

    Thanks! A tear came to my eye when finding it. I blame the Logan movie.

    This is a tough one! I have two FF covers to choose from that I really like, so I guess I'll go with
    Human Torch/Fantastic Four/She-Hulk/Disney Big Hero 6 /Tangled/G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero/Transformers G1 fanatic, Avatar-maker, and Marvel Moderator
    "一人じゃないから。" AI、『Story』。
    "ヒロ、お前を信じてる。" タダシ、『ベイマックス』。

    Not surprised! I think you can guess what my other option is, I'll show it after voting.

    You're making me work again this week, dagnamit. This one's going to be tough. Lots of especially emotionally powerful, as well as artistically exquisite covers this week.
