I don't think I'd be that harsh on it but yeah there's a lot more Baker covers I prefer too including a couple in the Phantom Lady run. But as you can see by the label below it is listed as a classic bondage cover along with a SOTI use. Its got some history to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I much prefer Kamen's cover to 23 (but that's an old debate!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phase One Send me a PM of your top THREE Baker’s Best Covers. I will update the thread with those that have submitted ballots. I will compile a list and report the top ten for the final ballot which will have all entries that has received at least TWO votes (currently 18 covers). Voting expiration, Sunday morning 6:00 am eastern. Phase Two Everyone submits their ordered preference from the final ballot list. Final ranking will be compiled by adding the ranking numbers, lowest number ranks highest. For example, if 50 people voted phantom lady 17 #1, it would get 50 pts.

The background is done by an unknown, maybe Kamen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you'll have to say it again in a few months after I attribute the whole cover to Kamen for the tenth time or so. comicnoir 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

29dukedog Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 tabcom really deserves props for taking the ball and running with it on this project- sorting through all those votes, and now through all the ranked lists, doing the math... not to mention giving us a page of handy thumbnails so we don't need to think, "what's on that cover again...?" Above and beyond! tabcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes- everyone who voted for your three favorites (and even if you didn't, I suppose!) should now review the above list of 18 books, and PM tabcom with that same list, ranked in order according to your personal preferences. Once that's done, tabcom will tally the numbers, and give us our Top 18 list. Finally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
