Covered 365: Day 118
Four Color Comics #118, Dell Comics, September 1942 – Artist: unknown. I’m cheating here and paying respects to the great Tomahawk covers we’ve seen the last couple of days. Though Tomahawk #118 is a great cover but it’s another angle…
Covered 365: Day 117
Tomahawk #117, DC Comics, July/August 1968 – Artist: Neal Adams. I feel like one of those co-eds on a Charlton Romance cover, forever changing her mind. With apologies to Gerald I’m still holding to my self imposed ban on L.B…

Covered 365: Day 113

Covered 365: Day 112
Journey Into Mystery #112, Marvel Comics, January 1965 – Artist: Jack Kirby. I was jonesing for a battle cover today but could not pick between Fantastic Four #112 and JIM #112, at the end of the day it was the…
Covered 365: Day 111
Captain America #111, Marvel Comics, March 1969 – Artist: Jim Steranko. Poster art at its finest, this cover is so in the zone and of the time, its great stuff from Mr. Steranko. That Unexpected #110 was a nice surprise…
Covered 365: Day 110
Blue Bolt #110, Star Publications, August 1951 – Artist: L.B. Cole. Yes we are into Cole country and this was a necessary stop. A deceptively overwhelming cover. You initially focus on the central monster but eventually the full glory of…

Covered 365: Day 108
Action Comics #108, DC Comics, May 1947 – Artist: Jack Burnley. Something about molten pots full of funky molten color. This cover is just a cool visual, the kind of cover you want the moment you see it. What else…
Covered 365: Day 107
Strange Tales #107, Marvel Comics, April 1963 – Artist: Jack Kirby. Simplicity can be overwhelming when executes nicely and Jack Kirby hit a nerve with this cover. Strange Tales #107 is one of the most iconic covers of the early…
