In 1992, Image was formed. It is now 2022. It has been 30 years (somehow, haha).

My current idea is that it does not have to be a cover from an Image Comic, as long as it is drawn by one of the original seven founders and fits the definition of a "classic" cover in terms of the year published (before 2012). If people feel that is too large in scope, then it can be reduced to just covers they drew for Image.
Example (if people are fine with the covers encompassing any comic company, otherwise I will edit it to be an Image-only cover):
Uncanny X-Men 281, Whilce Portacio, 1991
