November 26

Last week was a big week. This week is another big week of covers. While I was able to narrow it down to just three, there are several books that could have medaled if I had adjusted it. I sure hope this is the rule moving forward. I could get used to having to make these tough decisions every week.

Two foil covers this week. All of them are variants.

Also-Rans: Department of Truth #34 (virgin variant), Conan: Scourge of the Serpent #3 (virgin variant), Absolute Batman #14 (C cover), The Undead Iron Fist #3, Cloak or Dagger #2, Mortal Thor #4, Universal Monsters: The Invisible Man #4 (Cover B), DC KO #2 (cover E), Justice League Unlimited #13 (cover C), and Black Cat #4

Bronze Medalist

Batman/Green Arrow/The Question: Arcadia #1

Virgin Variant Cover D Foil

Cover art by Denys Cowan & Bill Sienkiewicz

It is a beautiful foil cover for this new DC series and it is awesome to give a medal to a legend as Bill Sienkiewicz.

Silver Medalist

Infernal Hulk #1

Foil variant

Cover art done by Dan Panosian

A stunning foil cover with the new version of the Hulk. It is very distinctive with this grey creature and the green glowing around it. Loved it.

Gold Medalist

Detective Comics #1103

Variant Cover C

Cover art by Lee Garbett

I love the Black and white contrast with the shadowy Batman in the middle of the cover. The bats flying out of Batman’s cape gives that a creepy look as well. Another great variant cover this week.
