Pretty tough to pick at this point. I've been voting off Flash 123 for quite a few rounds, but it obviously has a lot of support. I like JLA 21, but it's not even close to my favorite JLA cover, so I voted for it too (great colors and great Anderson art, but it's still a bunch of grown men holding hands...).

 

Other than that....very tough.

Tight voting but 5 are clearly in the lead to leave. Showcase 34 is the surprise to me -- I thought at least one of my top favorites would survive into the last round.

Well, at least JLA #21 is going away. It is by far the lamest cover remaining. I love the book and the JSA, but the cover is goofy.

 

I have alot of love for the washtones. As far as just going by the art alone, GL #8, MIS #55, and Showcase #29 blow the rest away. I also really think Flash #123 is the most iconic cover and I think it deserves to win the whole thing.

I'll keep voting, but this poll lost its luster when Showcase 12 got booted.

 

Just sayin'.

 

That happened for me when all the Bat books got voted off.

 

;)

 

Batman would dominate a BA DC superhero poll, I bet.

Flash 123 has always been one of my favorites. I loved the concept of the two earths so DC could reintroduce the Golden Age characters. This book was one of the first grail books that i had. That is also why I liked the annual 2 part JLA/JSA crossovers including the JLA 21 still remaining.

 

I remember being so happy when I traded for a copy when i was a dealer at the LA con back in its heyday when it was at the Ambasador hotel. Traded a pile of books i am sure, but if felt great to finally own that book.
