Ok, I think this thread could be fun, and doesn't exactly re-create the cool cover category threads we already have. And a search appears to show that we've never had a straight up 'what's your favorite cover?' thread. But I could be wrong on both counts and you all can let this thread die. Here is mine. It combines two of my favorite artists, Neal Adams and Michael Golden; my favorite Marvel character, Man-Thing; and the series that cemented me as a comic book fan, The Micronauts. It was a sort of perfect storm of elements that makes it impossible for me to ever entertain a new favorite cover.

You don't ask much do you? It's like picking your favorite kid. Not sure if this would be my definitive choice, though if treasury size qualifies, it's right up there. And if you factor in the combination of front & back covers, it's an easy winner. DC Limited Collector's Edition C-46 (aka the Justice League one):

We did this as a Classic Comics Xmas some years back at the old CBR forum, but I'm damned if I can remember which comic I chose as my all-time favourite. It was probably one of these two...

Actually, I have four of them and I will share my top 4 in order Number 1 Justice League of America #16 Why, it is a classic story of teamwork and it's boast the best JLA Group Picture of All-Time. I have a copy of this story. Number 2Spiderman #33 Why, to me it's the greatest Spiderman Story of All-Time. Bar None. I have the complete Master Planner Series and it's was the most difficult thing for me to acquire.

This was indeed a Classic Comics Christmas topic back in 2008. Then and now, my answer is Neil the Horse #6. Cei-U! I summon the suburban paradise!

Number 3Showcase #22 Why, it's a classic story of Green Lantern at it's very best. Loved the Cover and the artwork inside. Number 4Green Lantern #13 Why, it's a classic Superhero story of which marked the first meeting of Green Lantern and Flash and this was good story about teamwork and dedication to each other. This is one of my favorites as well.

I have several, but I think this may be my absolute favourite, simply because it's the book that first introduced me to my favourite superteam! Though this would come a close second...

It's been this one since I bought this comic book from a spinner rack in a Circle-K near my Grandparents house.

Tough call. So much Corben, Frazetta, Stevens, ect to choose from. But this cover blew me away when I saw it.
