ROBOTS
-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 2004 (this is a classics comic forum and we voted 10 years as the unofficial standard for being a classic).
-Covers must be posted before voting begins.
-Voting runs from 12 AM PST Tuesday until 12 AM Wednesday PST.
-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.
-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 that the Classic time frame, kindly point it out and the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins.
-Have fun!

Gosh, I haven't played the cover game since...I don't know when. Definitely a good two or three years I would think, but probably more. Anyway, I think I'll give it a shot again. The way I always used to play this game was that I was only allowed to post a comic cover from my own collection (whether I own that particular issue as a single floppy or as part of a TPB). This a) keeps it challenging and b) helps me to familiarise myself with the covers in my collection. So, somewhat predictably, I'm in with a cover from Marvel's Star Wars comic, featuring not just a robot, but a whole darn world full of 'em!

So many robots....hell there are a number of titles purely about robots but I wanted to go old school and fun with this one. For me, this has to be one of the weirdest looking robots I have ever seen.
