Thanks again for the votes, everyone. I really had no inspiration to find some clever or topical theme, and was actually surprised that this one hadn't been done before. Basically, all I'm asking for is a cover with at least one person wielding a sword - regardless of genre (so not limited to fantasy/sword & sorcery) or format (standard comic book, b&w magazine, digest, etc.). I'm only going to insist that it should be an actual sword with a blade made of some physical material, i.e., no light sabres, psi-swords, or whatnot.
The rules: • Post one classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. • Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before Nov. 2010. • Covers must be posted before voting begins. • Voting takes place on Tuesday, Nov. 10 beginning at 12:01am PST and ending at 11:59 pm PST. • Vote by posting the name of the poster whose entry best fits the theme or that you simply like the most. • Put your choice's name in bold! • The winner of the contest is the entry with the most votes after the voting period ends. • The winner chooses the theme for the next week's contest. • If you don't think the cover fits the theme, don't vote for it; please don't post disparaging remarks about it. • If a cover is more recent than the classic time frame, or not from a published comic book or collected edition, kindly point it out so that the poster can choose an alternate before voting begins. Also, it's not officially a rule, but like the last few contest winners, I'd also ask that you cite the series and issue number together with the cover image. Here's one to start us off:
Defenders #50 (Marvel, 1977)
Have fun!
