Covered 365: Day 276
Action Comics #276, DC Comics, May 1961, Artist: Curt Swan. Curt Swan wins the day with his very busy cover to Action Comics #276, it’s 1961 and doesn’t Supergirl look a little like Marilyn Monroe? I’m not sure why I…
Covered 365: Day 273
Foiur Color #273, Eastern Color, April 1950, Artist: Dan Gormley. So much small details in these Golden Age covers, case in point this nice cover from Dan Gormley for the cover of Four Color #273. Maybe because its Mike Kaluta,…
Covered 365: Day 269
Blackhawk #269, DC Comics, April 1984, Artist: Dan Spiegle. A whole crop of palatable covers today, my winner is Dan Spiegle’s cover to Blackhawk #269 for the sheer audacity and perhaps for biting off a bit more than he could…
Covered 365: Day 261
House of Mystery #261, DC Comics, February 1978, Artist: Mike Kaluta. Today had 2 strong contenders for the top spot. I should call it a tie. I’ll start with Mike Kaluta’s masterful cover to House of Mystery #261, the imagery…

Covered 365: Day 218
Strange Adventures #218, DC Comics, June 1969. Artist: Neal Adams. I love the Neal Adams cover to Strange Adventures #218, Adams’ take on 217 fell short with too much shading but the almost psychedelic #218 looks great. Ernie Chan does…
Covered 365: Day 217
House of Mystery #217, DC Comics, September 1973. Artist: Bernie Wrightson. Man the cover to House of Mystery #217 is so Wrightson and for me, that’s a good thing. What strikes me about Barry Windsor Smith’s Daredevil #217 cover is…
Covered 365: Day 214
Famous Funnies #214, Eastern Color, November 1954. Artist: Frank Frazetta. Day 214 had some great choices. Blowing the wad early, I’ve given myself one more Frazetta and Famous Funnies #214 has the strongest cover of the three remaining Frazetta issues.…
Covered 365: Day 197
Strange Adventures #197, DC Comics, February 1967. Artist: Carmine Infantino. Carmine Infantino is slowly piling up cover of the day honors and may end up the overall winner at this rate (I have to figure out a time-effective way to…
Covered 365: Day 157

Covered 365: Day 91
Brave and the Bold #91 – DC Comics, August/September 1970 – Artist: Nick Cardy (pencils and inks). So I actually spent time looking for some lame blank sketch variant #91 as my April Fools post, when I could not find…
