Thanks, everyone. This competition is delightfully difficult week after week, so it is really an honor to win.
This week’s theme is Team Team-Ups!
Thanks to the gol-darnedest best comics website, Mike’s Amazing World of Comics, I found out that
the day we vote next, July 26, is the 50th anniversary of the newsstand debut of JLA 47, the second half of one of the legendary series of JLA-JSA team-ups.
(Although, because of the Batmania fad, both look like Batman comics!)
In honor of those annual team-ups, please post a cover featuring a team-up of teams of characters.
The Cover Contest Constitution:
- 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 2006.
- Covers must be posted before voting begins.
-Voting is on Tuesday, July 26, beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59am 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 of your choicein 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; please 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![]()
I'll kick it off with a longtime favorite:
