I'm running on 4 hours sleep and will be busy all day and all of tomorrow and most of Saturday. So let's go with the suggestion made at the end of last week's contest.
Post a cover penciled or inked by Creig Flessel. My cover from last week is a good example.
Could someone post the usual rules? I'm using my phone here and that much copying & pasting is too much for me.
Thanks, and have a good time. Flessel had a long career and drew some great covers!

As usual, the rules are:
• Post one, and only one, classic cover that fits the theme of the contest.
• Your cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before March 2014.
• Please include the title and the issue number of the comic, preferably in bold, in case some posters cannot see your image. (Admittedly, I never do this)
• Covers must be posted before voting begins.
• Voting takes place on Tuesday, April 2, 2024, beginning at 12:01 am 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 in bold.
• The winner of the contest is the entrant with the most votes after the voting period ends.
• The winner gets to choose the theme for the next week's contest.
• If you don't think the cover fits the theme, don't post disparaging remarks about it. Just don't vote for it and keep quiet.
• If a cover is more recent than the classic time frame, kindly point it out to the poster, who may then choose an alternate before voting begins

It's like asking which child is your favorite--but this has long been a favorite Flessel of mine.  |

Flessel returned to DC 30 years later in the early 70s to work with Joe Simon. He apparently mostly did inks during that stint, but this is one of a few romance covers from the time (Simon was editor) that the folks at GCD attribute to Flessel.  |
