Disqualified.  Only published covers!!  I can draw a terrible cover on a blank!

Must be a Cumbrian thing, we murder the English language up here.

Strange, really.  We’re not that far apart. Never encountered it.

Did you know peeve means drink up here? As in, Gan out for a few peeves?

I didn’t. Weird, because Manchester / South Lancashire and Furness Cumbria, what used to be northern Lancashire, really aren’t that far apart.

”Gan” sounds quite Geordie, as well.

I'm often mistaken for a Geordie when I go, I mean Gan down south.

Are we still talking about bad covers? I can't tell if we're speaking English anymore.

These are all pretty bad or over-rated in my opinion. The worst is the wedding cake, but the newsboy Mac Raboy isn't far behind.

I'd be screaming like Tony, too, if my upper half expanded like a balloon inside a metal suit and my legs crumpled under me.

 

Holy cow. I can't picture John Romita ever approving a cover like this. How does that girl's green top stay on? I once met a model dressed as Vampirella, who had to use tape to ensure her nipples remained covered. This outfit fits into the same category of impracticality. Of course, Iron Man's hideous deformities are the real hero of this image. They are simultaneously repulsive and wrong.

Bland and lacking energy, certainly.

Hard to believe this cat was acceptable and commonplace back in the 90s.

It looks painful having this head.

As ridiculously hideous as this is, I have to admit those claws are intimidating.

I don't see anything wrong with that Spidey wedding cake topper cover. I think the art is very nice and it's a neat concept with the bloody knife.
