Leading up to the live action tv debut on January 16 of Tony Isabella's proudest (fictional) creation, this week, let's celebrate... LIGHTNING!Lightning makes for a great visual in a comics cover, so this week, post a cover that depicts lightning, whether it's a mighty bolt from the heavens or low voltage discharges from a Van der Graaf generator, or lightning bolts used as design elements or symbolic components of the image, or whatever you think fits the theme! RULES: Post one (and only one) classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. Covers must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before December 2007. Covers must be posted before voting begins. Voting takes place on Tuesday January 16th, 2018, beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59pm PST. Vote by posting the name in bold of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most. The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period. 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 so that the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins. Don't link from comics.org (gcd) or Wikia; the images don't show up here or are too small. Avoid using pictures hosted by Photobucket as they are no longer displaying. EXAMPLE:

I usually prefer the classic forked lightning look usually seen on horror comic covers or movie posters but I went with this because it's one of my favourite ToD covers all round.
