Since an Eternals cover won last week's contest, I thought of this subject:
Choose a cover featuring a Kirby solo character or creation, but drawn by someone other than Kirby.  I'm thinking of solo creations, so things like the New Gods, the Eternals, Devil Dinosaur, the Demon, etc, but NOT anything like, say, the Black Panther or Captain America. The series doesn't have to be a Kirby character, it could be the Avengers or Legion or JLA or anything at all, but it must feature a character created by Jack Kirby on his own, as the above Thor cover features the Forgotten One from the Eternals.
The rules of the game: - Post one classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. - Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before July 2009. - Covers must be posted before voting begins. - Voting takes place on Tuesday, July 16th, beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59 pm 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. |

As in characters created by Kirby on his own, solo. Marshall Rogers' portrayal of Mister Miracle...   |

Swamp Thing and one of the Promethean Giants drifting somewhere before the Source Wall, on the cover of Swamp Thing #62 (1987):  Kirby's original look at this big green guy (New Gods #5):  {Spoiler}{'The count'} There are now a maximum of 14 covers left in my secret personal cover challenge. I really thought I was going to have to sit this one out, but I managed to find a couple of different options, of which this is definitely the best! |

I can't decide. This contest is going to make my head explode. In the case, please don't enter.  This is like the WWE Royal Rumble. Every man for himself! If one contender, in this case you, wishes to exit the contest, you make it easier for the rest of us to win.  |

But the choices are so many and so varied. So...hard....to...decide.
