UPDATE -- Added Fairest #3 to the top 20. It's an iconic cover from the run and has superb composition.

Still need to evaluate more covers from the Catwoman and Tomb Raider runs.

 

Don't forget his Dallas Comic-Con 2004 Star Wars cover. One of the rarer ones, but one of the best.

Another personal favourite of mine, though this one's from France:

A couple recent Hughes variants in today:

[Lord Gemini]

I'd love to have this one that came out just yesterday, but she's a tad pricey. A 1:100 variant I believe.

[nines]

Yeah its a little conservative, but conceptually this is top of the game. Notice the shooter in the reflection.

I regret selling my copy last year.

Wow, I didn't realize it had gone up so much.

Always cracks me up because boardies could have bought one of mine for cheap some time ago. 

The homages are super disappointing to the point I wish they had not been done.  Shadowman 6, Hardlee Thin.  Thumbs down.

Here's his first JLA cover (#31), among others, all with his trusty "'AH!" signed upon them at Comic-Con some time ago.

Ah, now, that's the stuff. I'll have to dig my signed copies out at some point. Adam used to do DragonCon every year (he may still do so, I haven't been in 10 years) and he was always super easy to get to at that show. The cover art to 34 used to be my holy grail, but I gave up on that a long time ago. I used to own the original covers to 40 and 46 (as well as the Maguire cover to #4), but those are long since gone.

There doesn't seem to be a consensus on the best Tomb Raider cover(s). At least one or two should definitely be on the top 20 list.

[F For Fake]

Tomb Raider contenders would have to include (and thanks MCS for the images, I don't have time to dig through my boxes)

I'm not scrolling back through 50 pages, have the Stargrazers been shown any love yet? This is the book that made me fall in love with Adam's stuff. He was still kinda doing his Dave thing at that point, but you could see his personal style emerging.

[F For Fake]

And of course, Long live the Legion.

And come on now, these Vampi's are all timers.

In today.  I know it's a reprint, but I like the version with the Lady Rawhide logo rather than Zorro.

[OtherEric]

Not one, but two covers in my pull box today:

I should try and stitch together scans of the whole covers on those, they're wraparound.  I could get about 80% of the image to fit on my scanner, the image only covers half the back cover.

And of course he's doing the Dave thing, since Stevens did the original Stargrazers cover:
