Thanks for the victory, everybody!
This week's theme: Don't know much about history!
You can pick any history-related covers. Movie tie-ins, time-travel stories, even comics referring to then-contemporary events if the event was an important occurrence likely to be discussed in history books. (For example, the issue of All-Star Comics describing the JSA's reaction to Pearl Harbor. It wouldn't have counted as a historical cover then, but it does now.)
There are rules -
- Post one, and only one, classic cover that fits the theme of the contest.
- Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before Jan 1 2005.
- Covers must be posted before voting begins.
- Voting begins on Tuesday October 26 at 12:01am PST and ends at 11:59am PST 10/26/15.
- Vote by posting the name of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most.
- Put the name in bold. Votes not in bold will not count.
- The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period ends.
- The winner chooses the theme for the next week's contest.
- If you don't think the cover fits the theme, don't vote for it; don't post disparaging remarks about it. If a cover is more recent than the Classic time frame, kindly point it out and the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins.
- When posting covers, remember GCD (aka comics.org) doesn't allow hot-linking and if you use them for the source to post your cover, you will see it because it is in your cache, but no one else will be able to see it.
Use a source other than the GCD for your image for others to see it.

Sigh, so close last week. But alas, Hoosier's cover was fantastic!
I don't know much about history, but I am pretty sure a ghost didn't sink the Titanic.

Alex Schomburg with an early depiction of the inhuman atrocities of the Holocaust:
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wants to know which one of those guys is the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, tricking those poor, misguided Nazis into torturing Jews.

I'm not quite sure if I'm meeting the topic or not. . but how can I not go with this? NAZIS with Ray-guns! (but not a single swastica in sight!).
