Welcome back to the EYG Favorite Comic Covers of the Week. The more things change, the more they stay the same. You’ll see what I meant by that in a little bit.

Also-Rans: Godzilla Kai-Sei #6 (Superman #75 homage cover), The Twilight Zone #3, Blue Falcon and Dynomutt #5, Cheetah & Cheshire Rob the Justice League #6, Absolute Superman #15, Absolute Batman: Ark-M #1, and Ultimate X-Men #23 (B cover).

Bronze Medalist

Amazing Spider-Man #19

Amazing Visions Variant

Cover art by Lee Bermejo

A lovely cover featuring the Punisher. Bermejo really made this epic. Punisher looked unhinged… just as he should look.

Silver Medalist

Batman #5

Variant 1:25

Cover art by David Aja

This is an awesome cover with Batman and a crow (or raven, perhaps) squawking on his shoulder. The expression on Batman’s face is priceless. I have always been a fan of white backgrounds.

Gold Medalist

The Monster and the Wolf #2

Cover B

Cover art by Mark Spears

2026 looks to be just like 2025. Our Cover Artist of the Year for 2025 is back on the top in 2026. Technically, this book shouldn’t be out yet. It is released next week, but Keenspot sent this to me today, so they must have known that Mark Spears was heading back to the Gold Medal stand. This is a really creepy cover with disturbing imagery.
