110 posts in this topic

These are some of the comics with covers so compelling that I had to buy them when I saw them. They all led me into the story and the images were so powerful that I just had to own the comics.

 

Suicide Squad 6, 10 and 22 Luke McDonnell, Jerry Bingham and Luke McDonnell

Flash 323, 324 and 325 - Carmine Infantino

Captain America 300 and 332 - Mike Zeck

Thor 329 - Ed Hannigan and Klaus Janson

Squadron Supreme 4 - Bob Hall and Bob Layton

DC Comics Presents 87 - Eduardo Barreto

The Lone Ranger and Tonto trade paperback cover - Tim Truman

The Doom Patrol 1 - Steve Lightle

Dazzler 18 - Bill Sienkiewicz

Solar 3, 5 and 7 - Barry Windsor Smith

Defenders 103 and 113 - Al Milgrom and Don Perlin

Spectacular Spider-Man 69, 70 and 72 - Ed Hannigan

Saga of the Swamp Thing 3 - Tom Yeates

Fantastic Four 232, 243 and 247 - John Byrne

New Teen Titans 4 and 33 - George Perez

 

I also loved those iconic image annual covers with the big, gold lettering that said ANNUAL for the 1983 Marvel annuals and the all the anniversary issues from DC that had the really cool anniversary logos that appeared during the mid-1980s, like on Brave and the Bold 200 and Justice League of America 250.
