I'm just about to buy a tight 357 Mag. Too bad I can't get ammo!

Definately a classic for Image fans

Daredevil vol. 2 n°5 variant cover (DD holding Karen on black background)... half a dozen of the first 20 issues of vol.2 could have "classic cover" status all over.

loved the stories too...

Didn't we just have this discussion on the previous page. ?

A key indicator of a potentially classic modern comic book cover is whether or not it has been made into a poster.

(I do not mean promotional posters.)

One could make a case that the Modern Age may very well become known for its revitalization of Good Girl Pin-Up Art.

If that becomes the case, then many Adam Hughes covers will become classic, if they aren't already.

 

Runners-up include Greg Horn (Emma Frost & Electra) & Frank Cho (Red Sonja & Liberty Meadows).

 

Long Shot- Charles Burns' Black Hole #3, (Kitchen Sink)

I mean, when Limited Edition Prints are made of Adam Hughes' Catwoman & Wonder Woman covers,

the word "Classic" comes to mind. Catwoman #74

Just because CGC doesn't make the distinction between ages to make the pricing and tiers simple doesn't mean Copper Age doesn't exist. Under their "pre-1980" tier, it's all one big age, not Golden, Silver or Bronze.

 

This thread resides in the Modern section of the forum. There's also a Copper section here...

I wasn't questioning the validity of your statement, just saying that the point had already been made. (thumbs u

I reckon this may end up as a 'classic' Joker cover some years down the line..

Although I love the premise of it, it's far from Daniel's best work.

My bad. I have been coming to this forum in a tired state lately. Plus a visitor kinda messed up my unread post counter a while back, so I missed stuff that probably was already said. I'll allow myself to be submitted to the public for 1,000 lashes for being Captain Obvious.

Maybe you should be General Obvious or Captain Zod?

Oh no, I'm not allowing any kind of demotion.
