I'm thinking outside the box. . at least the Marvel Sandbox. . . since DC did this crap too. at least the contest text distracts from the horrific Mr Freeze costume design (tho some beautiful work by Aparo)   |

Here the banner at the top is a deliberate design element that balances out the other words shown on the sides and bottom of this cover.   I mean, if you don't look too closely, he could be holding up that Toys R Us banner...and the series title...and the Avengers logo...and the corner box (which features his previous costumed identity)... right?  (Anyway, c ompare to Avengers #63 cover, one of Genial Gene's best IMO) |

Is...is that actual art of what could have been?! Yes, this is the cover that Golden submitted. Golden drew this much later for a commission. The style differs from the other Golden covers posted in this thread. |

I know we're supposed to stick to Marvel, but just as a reminder that it could always get worse  |

Yep, so many lovely Michael Golden covers in particular blemished by those friggin' banners. They were like the acne of comics.

I'd love to see it if there was... maybe they could've at least used it (or the later one) on that True Believers reprint. The website I posted that from bleedingcool, had this right above it: "But what if… Marvel had published one of Michael Golden's other choices… here's a more recent take by Golden on that classic issue."
You can see his signature initial on it is a later one he used. |
