A cover’s worth a thousand words

Friday, May 8th, 2009

By Mark Chiarello

So, everyone knows that DC has the BEST comic book covers in the business and it’s been that way for a long, long time. I mean, with a crew like Jim Lee, Adam Hughes, Lee Bermejo, Frank Quietly, Andy Kubert and ALL of our other great artists, how could we possibly make things better?  I’ll tell ya, by sending out a challenge to all of our monthly cover artists to go wild on their covers for the month of August.  WOW!  Just check out some of the results.  I’d say these guys kicked butt (again!).

    I like the Black Flash image

    the Power Girl, JSA and Gotham City Sirens covers are gorgeous!

    Not sure about the Rebirth one. Looks like an action shot from within, and doesn’t seem fluid enough.

    Oh and why isn’t Batwoman on the JL:CFJ cover? Strange omission.

    Sorry, but that Outsiders cover is frigging ugly. I hope whoever drew it is not the new artist of the title.

    The Outsiders cover seems like Tom Mandrake. I hope he´s the new artist.

    Ew. Love Dini but there’s no way I’m buying Gotham Sirens with the covers and art that’s been shown for it so far. Disgusting.
