[Ferdelance]

According to Overstreet

[Primetime]

not sure, but Schomburg is a decent guess

You're probably right.

I say Kirby, but Der UberStrassa may not agree.

Neal Adams

Neal Adams

 

I should be Adams but Bob Overstreet is an old man who likes golden age covers

 

[seank]

Adams would be my guess.

Which Neal Adams comic covers are the most classic?

Rob Liefeld

Here's an old thread that lists the covers - not the artists though. I assume the list is complete. Classic Cover thread

 

Edit - the list contains both CGC and OS designated classic covers.

How about Carl Barks?

[chrisco37]

For me it's gotta be Schomburg.

 

After that, Kirby (although he did so many, it's a given he's in the top).

[goldust40]

Kubert was no slouch either...like Adams, DC used him as their lead cover artist for a long period, and his work went from strength to strength. However he was never as in vogue as Adams.

 

That said, probably Schomburg.

Rob Liefeld

 

 

 

I'm going with Schomburg.

[Gatsby77]

Depends. Era is one thing. Consistency/ output/ proportion is another.

 

I'd put Frazetta, Alex Ross or Brian Bolland over Schomburg or even Adams on the proportion scale. Each of the former has produced far fewer covers than the latter, but _many_ those covers are classic/iconic.

 

And, as pointed out above, Overstreets is another 20 years or so from noting Ross or Bolland covers as "classic" due purely to an age bias.

In my mind there is no better cover run by a single artist than Frazetta's stint on Famous Funnies. Also, don't forget his volumes of painted covers for Warren as well.
