I love using these contests to highlight a favorite artist. (...) I kid you not, kirby101 , as I was trying to think up a theme last week, I almost decided to opt for the 'favorite artist' route, and similarly considered none other than Simonson, since he's a) one of my all-time favorites and b) not been featured yet. Now, considering how much of a hard time I've been having picking just one cover, I wish I had in fact chosen that as my theme.
Anyway, I just decided to go with my favorite Simonson Battlestar Galactica cover... Battlestar Galactica #19 (Marvel, 1980)
And here's a cropped image of the cover, without that friggin' banner ad, so it can be appreciated in its full glory:

I love the design of this cover and how Simonson evokes/homages a page from Thor #133 (IMO) {page from Thor 133}

The guest star occupies the centre of the composition and takes up more space than the title character, it looks like he's rescuing her, and worst of all it's Superman! That's three strikes and yer out!

Yet another reason I wished I had chosen this as my own theme last time - it's impossible to pick just one. In fact, there's not a single cover here that isn't awesome. Anyway, my vote goes for one that was my second choice:
