Interesting facts about round 5:

 

• Green Lantern was massacred with only 3 of 16 books advancing.

• Half of the Sea Devils left us.

• Showcase survived the storm with 1 of 14 getting voted off.

Wow, seems like half the books disappeared in one fell swoop!

[RockMyAmadeus]

BOO!!!

 

At least B&B #79 is still around.

 

Now I'm just vengeance voting.

It'll be a little less manageable next round, as I will have full size images of all 20 books. (thumbs u I don't mind though, I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing these in their full-size glory.

Come on folks, let's finally get rid of the Sea Devils. Who is willing to admit that they are fans today?

I've never read one of their stories, but I love this cover.

 

[Aman619]

thats one of my top 5!

[JLA_ALL_THE_WAY]

Looks like it may wind down to the obvious iconic/1st app books... that would be a shame.

 

As for my Top 10 picks as of round 4, that Andy so humorously denounced (boy were you funny),

 

B&B #28 -

Supes #199 -

Flash #123 -

SC #61 -

GL #73 - I think the silhouette may beat out #8 or #40, depending on how many female voters

SC #22 -

JLA #21 -

SC #4 -

MIS #82 -

 

I'm batting over .500 currently (yes I'm taking partial credit for GL #40), and it looks like they'll make it to the top 20. At least.

So...how you doin? I figured since they're your lists, I'd let you all cut n paste your own.

 

Can't wait for the full size picks, TGH !!

Absolutely a fan of Russ Heath's artwork!

 

It doesn't have to be about the current character popularity

Clearly you have zero taste.

I love the Sea Devils books. And they are great inside too. I personally think 3 of the top 5 covers left are Sea Devils books. Russ Heath rules.

Showcase 13??? really? The Flash is being chased from behind by a giant phallic symbol?
