Thanks again everyone This week let's commemorate the legendary Russ Heath. Post a comic book cover by Heath. I'll add a qualifier: it should be a front comic book cover, so Heath's magnificent rendering of those Roman Soldiers that adorned so many a back cover would not be an eligible contender. Anyway, here are the rules: - Post one classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. - Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before September 2008. - Covers must be posted before voting begins. - Voting takes place on Tuesday, October 9 2018, beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59 am PST. - Vote by posting the name of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most. - Put your choice's 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; 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. And here's my cover--a favorite of mine--for this week: Have fun everyone! Looking forward to seeing some glorious covers.

Great to see this contest Farrar. So many great Heath covers to choose from. I'm going to take my time looking through them.

Heath's work is so lush yet powerful.
I can feel the freezing and the stress simultaneously with this cover.
They've all been great.

I hope this counts. It's a Russ Heath re-pencil of an Al Milgrom designed cover.

I had to skip last week's contest, since there were no Archie covers available that qualified for my "secret personal challenge." I'll just be skipping the ones I can't qualify for, instead of giving up, and instead try to finish out the current challenge, which should take me through a maximum of about 43 more weeks. Make that 49 more weeks, according to my spreadsheet of eligibility! And I won't be stopping if anyone guesses the secret criterion, either...
