    Default COVER CONTEST - Sept. 28th through Oct. 4th

    Okay, in the spirit of the cover that won last week... the contest is

    MASKED MEN DRESSED CASUAL.

    That is to say, heroes JUST wearing a mask, no 'costume.' Cape is okay. Just no spandex or armor. Make sense?

    And here is a sample...




    Standard boilerplate follows.

    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 9/20 and Runs Until 12 AM Wednesday 9/21 PST!
    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!
    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 and Thus will do the Counting!
    You can find a bunch of books I wrote stories for here. The weekly column is here.

    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.

    Display is not working, but if it is who I think it is, great cover.

    Well, after a failed black and white joke for last week's contest, obviously I must go with color this week. I'm going blue this week. And a gas mask is a mask.
