Worst Valiant Cover Ever

Post by JustCallMeAric »

What do you think is the worst comic cover Valiant ever put out? I think it is Solar 52. This cover is *SQUEE* ridiculous

It is scientifically impossible that the worst Valiant cover be a Solar cover.

Do you have evidence to dispute the assertion that Solar 52 is the worst Valiant cover ever?

(I think Solar 52 is one of the final 25 regular issues I need for a complete reading run)

As big of an X-O fan as I am that is a pretty bad cover. BUT Solar 52 is still much much worse

Do the Acclaim’s Valiant Heroes covers count? If not, then this one: Turok: The Hunted #1

Just look at his face, that expression is so awful.

The only thing I dislike is the Valiant logo. It makes the cover stand out or stands out more then the cover itself. They should use variant logos so the art will match with the feeling the cover is trying to convey.

Nevermind.......... my eyes it burns me BIRTHQUAKE

sends me running back to Lupon.... Oh the same the horror.....Fujiko same me......No really I just had the urge to pick up my Lupon after seeing docto strange and there Jay Leno chins......oh the horror the shere horror :!:

I like Giffen's art, it's odd, but it's kind of cool.

Now that Ninjak cover Greg posted is going to be hard to beat.
