Time for some more Neal Adams goodness.

For every category, there shall be Neal Adams. So many great diverse covers, I think we have seen one in every contest (maybe not in actuality but sure seems that way and I love it!)

I think this cover epitomizes the topic this week:

Some very nice ones have shown up already, including a couple atomic explosions that immediately occurred to me. But thankfully one of Kubert's early masterpieces remains to explode in this great contest...

I've whittled down my choices to about a dozen, but something is driving me crazy that I have to try to settle first. It's only tangential to the contest topic, but my obsessive side is taking over and I need to see / find this.... I have searched high and low for a Jack Kirby cover (explosion less) that pictures in extreme close-up a helmeted soldier with a large bandage on his eye, and a cigarette in his mouth, too. I thought it was a cover for Battlefront or another similar 50s comic (like Battle, War, Battleground, etc.), but damned if I can find anything close to it. (Though I've found a ton of other outstanding Kirby and non-Kirby covers.) It's a pretty brutal image for its time, and I know I've seen it used as an example of the greatness of Kirby (as if any more evidence is called for). I know I've seen this plenty of times, and perhaps it's a splash page, not a cover, but does it ring a bell with anyone? I summon the "D'oh!" revelation, I hope. Here it is: You are a good man, Scott! I would expect no less from a fellow Bay Stater. Thanks so much. (Didn't realize it had an explosion back there: now I've got a baker's dozen of choices!)

Scratch one from my final list. Great, isn't it? Wow.
