I only wish the main image was given the full cover....

Love this Bernie cover..  It’s like DC lost its mind with the banner full of text and floating heads in a few titles of the early 70s.  The Adams covers on Justice League in 70 and 71 and then Detective in 72.  Not sure what they were thinking?

Yes, such an odd design choice. I've often wondered how the artists felt having their art not displayed to its fullest.

I kind of got two, one magazine and one comic book cover.

 

Though it's a photograph.

The cover just looks so cool with the look in the dogs eyes.

The next well. I liked the cover so much I've picked up four copies.

Great idea for such a tough decision.

1 comic. 1 magazine.

hm

I had chosen and posted this.

But for a magazine this is hands down my favorite.

I realize that Superman breaking out of chains is one of the all-time most iconic images in comics.

That said, I've never understood exactly how somebody got those chains on him in the first place ... so many times.

I mean, chain me up once, shame on you ...

It was the same arch-villain who slipped an extra pair of pants on Batman on that Batman 244 cover…
