Yeah, I know that there's nothing special about squaring off picture but It's just a great visual device .  |

Is this the one you're thinking of, tarkintino ? (Obviously came out long before either of the Iron Man issues...)  I believe that's the one I was thinking of, with its "two stories" background. Thanks! |

DC's Death Fingers, first delivered by Neal Adams on the cover of Batman #231 (May, 1971), later "borrowed" by Bernie Wrightson for the cover of House of Mystery #214 (June, 1973)--  Anyone dare say Wrightson saw the Adams cover and said, "Hey...that's a great idea! I'll just change this and that, and..."  |

Towering metal: Planet Comics #48 (May,1947) and Daredevil #8 (June, 1965). Looks like Wally Wood's Daredevil cover was somewhat influenced by the old sci-fi title, right down to the direction the antagonist is moving and arm positions.  |

Interesting that as late as '67, Weisinger was still assuming enough reader churn to justify a short window for repeating himself.

I thought there was enough of a similarity between these two for it to be worth posting here, so...   |
