Modern comics that deserve "Classic Cover" status?

97 posts in this topic

It's not even 7 AM, so I'm not thinking right now, "Classic cover" means to me something that will someday be imitated or is otherwise instantly recognizable. I can't think of any right now, but some that really impress me are Locke & Key #4, which is a really excellent example of Rodriguez's draftmanship

Nyx #3, which I think is just a really haunting image, sort of like L&K Is a haunted image.

And Fables #76

I really like a lot of Ladronn (Planet Hulk) and Adam Hughes (Catwoman) covers, too.

Maybe we should see examples of books from the last 25 years that have been swiped, which would support their "classic cover" status. I know DKR #1 & Spider-Man #1 were done a few times. (shrug)
