Recently celebrated a birthday last weekend and to commemerate let's all post a comic published during the Year they were born. Doesn't have to be your birthday month as long as the comic was published the same year you were born. Warrior #1 (1982) The fine print: • Post one, and only one, classic cover that fits the theme of the contest. • Cover must be from a published comic book or collected volume published before November 2013. • Please include the title and the issue number of the comic, preferably in bold (e.g. Brother Power the Geek #2, DC 1968), in case some posters cannot see your image. • Covers must be posted before voting begins. • Voting takes place on Tuesday, November 14, 2023, beginning at 12:01 am PST and ending at 11:59 am PST. • Vote by posting the name of the poster whose cover best fits the theme or that you simply like the most in bold. • The winner of the contest is the entrant 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, kindly point it out to the poster, who may then choose an alternate before voting begins.

Didn't feel like browsing through every cover that came out that year, so I just went with comics released in the month I was born, June, and this one caught my eye: Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD #4 (Marvel, 1968)

Same here, so if its okay with Jesse, I will post a cover from the month, instead of year I was born... Batman #190 (March, 1967). Cover by Carmine Infantino with Joe Giella inks.

I lucked out. The day I was born was a Wednesday... new comics day. So I'll pick one of the books that arrived the same day I did. And even better, it's the other first edition of the day... Outlaw Kid #1, May 26, 1954. Art by the great Joe Maneely.
