Boo. insane.gif I never liked the green face and it does not have that iconic image vibe going for it(I know I'm killing you with my technical rhetoric screwy.gif). Though Supes was my #1 choice at the time of voting, it defines him from my POV, my favorite Adams -c is JLA 138 Adam Strange(now that's a classic).

...I don't think a lot of hard core Adams fans liked this cover when it came out,..his pencils were getting a little loose towards the end of his DC run,...there is definitely a difference between the Adams covers prior to 1974 and after,...

 

I agree that his style and perhaps, concentration level varied from his earlier work (maybe he wasn't as hungry . . .) but I'll toss my hat into the ring on the JLA cover too, it's a great composition (even if the JLA characters took him about 5 minutes to sketch . . .)

I love that JLA - Adam Strange Cover by Adams, of course Adam Strange app. are the only non-Batman DC SA books I collect so I might be biased wink.gif
