I'd like your vote for the most classic GA Superman cover.

[thedude]

hello fellow collectors, I was wanting to set up a poll to vote for which GA Superman cover you like the most, I started thinking about this after a discussion on these boards about classic covers. some feel that books like Action 1 and Tec 27 are "created" classics, meaning that because of there historical importance, and the fact that we've seen them so many times is the main reason they are classic, while other issues are truly classic for the cover alone, now I'd like to start with just GA Superman covers first, then later I'd like to do a poll with GA Action and then Batman and Detective covers.. it will also be fun to see where these covers rank in the minds of collectors...so I've listed my candidates so far, I'd like your input on any covers you think should be included for voting, before I make up the poll.

 

thanks,

 

1. Superman #1

2. Superman #4

3. Superman #5

4. Superman #11

5. Superman #13

6. Superman #14

7. Superman #15

8. Superman #17

9. Superman #18

10. Superman #23

11. Superman #24

12. Superman #26

13. Superman #32

14. Superman #53

I like the cover to #5 followed by #15.

[uclapeterg]

I like 5 and then 14. They are all pretty great covers. Let me check to see if they're any others.

[rob_react]

To me it's 14 followed miles behind by everything else.

I vote #14 and #24

OK, I need help setting up the poll, how do you "enable" polls on your posts ?

Under "post", it has a "how many polls do you want to set up?" pretty far down (below the text area).

14

[action1kid]

My personal favorite is action 7.

[arexcrooke]

14 17 24

[Norrin_Radd]

My personal favorite is action 7.

 

If we're throwing in Actions, I think 30 is a classic (along with 1 and 7).

[s-man]

14....but you gotta love #32 "It tickles!"

[thedude]

please choose your top 5 favorites..

[rjpb]

#17 is my favorite and issue I'd most like to own - but #14 is just so damn iconic that I would rate it "most classic" - though #5 is another one I'd rather have.
