Ultimate Favorite Adams Covers Poll: Semi-Finals Part 1 of 5

[mrlatko]

The semi-final round is unleashed! We began with 460 Neal Adams covers. The boardies have narrowed down the count to 134 covers after the 14 preliminary rounds. The stakes are much higher now, as the cream of the crop from the 5 semi-final rounds will advance to the FINAL round for all the marbles, and prizes for the participants. Eventually we will have a favorite SA/BA Neal Adams vintage cover champion!

 

This first semi-final round features 26 covers from 1967-1968 in chronological order that made the preliminary cut.

 

Every cover remaining is a winner. It is up to you to determine which covers are a cut above the rest. Vote count set at 8.

 

Pick what you love, not what you think is popular.

 

Don't be shy with your comments. Let's hear why you made your choices. Influencing others with commentary is encouraged.

 

Choose your 8 favorites this round.

SA 207

This was probably the easiest of the Semi-Final rounds. He did not hit his stride until a bit later.

I think the HOMs are the best in this round, but most of my favorites are still a few rounds away once we get back onto the Bronze Comics Forum.

It's not looking good for SA 214.

I think SA 207 had the most votes of any cover in any preliminary round.

What's up with SA 211 cover? It is almost like he roughed out where the character was going to be on the cover but didn't ever finish it. :shrug:

Brilliant early use of negative space on a comic cover!

 

Or... He maybe ran out of time like you suggest.

That absolutely floors me. I think it's the second worst cover on the list after Batman 200

Seriously? You are definitely in the minority on the SA hate. I too was surprised at how much love that cover has received though.

B&B 79, SA 207, Tomahawk 116- my three favorites here. i don't get the love for HOM 175 and agree Batman 200 is the worst.
