It's Top Shelf Friday time!
So show us a comic (or comic-related or comic-tangential item) that you own that you believe should be on the Top Shelf. It can be because you think the comic is important or valuable, because it's a sentimental favorite or one of your favorite stories, because it's signed and holds great memories for you, just has a really cool cover or strikes your fancy or is just plain cool-whatever the reason show us that comic. Any pic of that comic will do, but bonus points if you can show us the actual copy you own.
This week's pick, one of my favorite Darwyn Cooke covers from the Darwyn variant month DC did back in 2012/2013 (somewhere in there) all landscape covers. Here's the Teen Titans rocking out...
(Yes I would have bought all these covers as a portfolio or prints by Darwyn, but that's not how they were offered, so I bought the variants-I also bought magnets of many of those covers that decorate one of the file cabinets I have downstairs) because that's what made getting them to the market viable and I wanted these gems by Darwyn).
