Great choices. I like the Venom variant in this style a bit more though.

Daredevil 506, so about 8 months ago. Not sure whether it was regular or variant cover.

The cover for ASM 655 is really simple, but awesome. Love it.

Superman 84. The issue where the Toyman kills Cat Grant's son. Also, Superman 86. Sort of a simple pose but just a great image.

Most any cover done by Kaare Andrews when he was on his run a few years back rocks. He had a Hulk one he based on an old Norman Rockwell painting that I just loved...
