Worst Comic Covers Ever - Let's See 'Em!

Here's a modern entry. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.....

Are you referring to Black Canary or Frank Miller? confused.gif

 

The upstart Frank Miller, of course. Just a pi$$ poor effort on that cover. Lacks any of the subtle beauty that the Sin City stuff does.

 

He may have actually put more effort into the writing than on this piece. And that's a really scary thought.

Laziest and worst cover ever is OMAC #1 White cover. Nothing will ever beat that.

 

Trying to figure out how to add an attachment for one more candidate.

Bear with me if I screw up.

Maybe it's the stupidest, not worst, but definitely very white and very lazy.

I always thought this Larsen cover was the laziest effort ever...

but nothing ever topped this one for me

(when I first picked it up, I actually thought it was a grade school cover contest)

Yes, he is. If anyone knows if the owner of the cover to ASM 347 is ever offering to sell I will gladly purchase it.

Actually I remember that cover on the stands. It really stood out and while a tad frugal was a kinda cool con wink.gifcept - kinda like comics version on the White Album.

The modern covers win it for me. They're not only unbelievably ugly, but have an inbred quality - like they're showing characters and visual motifs that have been drawn so often before that the only way left to be original is to make them literally disgusting to look at.

I can't believe that Ernie Chua/Chan hasn't shown up yet.

 

This is easily one of the worst covers of the HOS series...by EC himself. Reminds me of a bad Charlton cover.

Yeah, the weirdness grows on you...the color tones and layout of the page just doesn't do it for me.. flowerred.gif (the couple in the background even looks like they agree too)
