    CBR Cover Contest: July 19 to July 25 - TMI!

    This week's theme:

    Too Much Information!

    Interpret it as you wish... Spoilers on the cover? Uncomfortable details about certain characters?

    Or just a horribly busy trade dress like my example:





    The rules:


    Post one (and only one) cover that fits the theme of this week's contest.
    The cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume.
    Covers must be posted before voting begins (on Tuesday)
    Contest begins 12 PM Wednesday (today) and runs until 12 AM Tuesday PDT (i.e., 3 AM Wednesday EDT!).


    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 tally votes.
    The winner of the contest is the entrant 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.


    Also:
    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.

    If ever a story gave us too much information, it was this...

    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!

    Spoilers for pretty much the whole book, all on one cover.

    I remember the controversy for this one.

    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.

    You put it all out there
    You set boundaries where?
    You don't mind being bare
    You say, A boundary - what?

    'Being a total buzzkill' surprisingly not listed among his extraordinary abilities.
