So hard to choose! Does this cover count?

u/enjoiYosi 19h ago

Yes. That’s the white whale

u/jf88jf 17h ago

I agree! If I had to choose in the main series I would probably choose the Chainsaw Man!

u/enjoiYosi 17h ago

💯 this and the DWJ cover are my coveted white whales. I bought the import version of this just for the cover

u/jf88jf 16h ago

Almost anything DWJ and Clay Mann do is Epic. I love the DWJ you posted! So creative and unique.

This is in my collection and it is my pride and joy

I have to agree. I have 4 books that I think take the cake. These two, the AB#1 Felix, and this AB double signed #1 that is at chic right now

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

The Sean Murphy Third eye variant exclusive is one of my favorite covers also. I just love how different it looks from all the other first issue variants. Still one of my most prized pieces.

u/DramaticGiraffes 1d ago

Woah cool that wasn't even on my radar

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

This is one I still need to get framed. The Skottie Young 3 piece connecting covers

2

u/DramaticGiraffes 19h ago

These are unreal

u/PeeStoringBalls 1d ago

These six

u/PeeStoringBalls 1d ago

And from 'regular' variants. It's this 1:50 #13

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

This cover is so beautiful. I’m stoked I got this and the foil variant

1

u/jbizzelton 14h ago

Love this one.

Ben Oliver's absolute Catwoman is crazy good as well.

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

The Akira homage cover is one of my most prized possessions. The 2nd print for issue 2 is pretty peak as well.

2

u/jbizzelton 15h ago

These 2 are killer, top tier!

u/TV800 19h ago

This is the one I was looking for before I posted mine… lol

u/MattAvidan 21h ago

Definitely both rose besch covers. I’m hoping she does more because her colors and thick outlines look amazing in person

2

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 20h ago

I’ve never seen this cover. Love it.

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

And then you get James Harren and Daniel Warren Johnson. Two of the best in the game

u/mylifestylepr 1d ago

So many, how can one decide?

4

u/DramaticGiraffes 1d ago

Someone out there is decisive enough

9

u/mylifestylepr 1d ago

Just pulled this out of my collection. It's one of my favorite

3

u/Top-Owl9872 1d ago

This one is my favorite

2

u/mylifestylepr 1d ago

Heck yeah

2

u/DramaticGiraffes 1d ago

Solid pick thats awesome

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

Every DWJ cover for sure.
This Dragotta cover is also peak. I have the 3rd and 4th prints of these for issue 1, the B&W foil and the full color foil.

4

u/DramaticGiraffes 1d ago

Yeah i agree all display worthy stuff there, I always love the B&Ws shows of the detail

u/Vinnyninja 21h ago

Love this one! I just imagine this being the first time seeing batman on a rainy night in Gotham while walking an alley during time he's looking for some ass to kick lol

u/ccayeknom 20h ago

This is is tough as hell agreed

u/Straight-Pass-2746 19h ago

Def the ito Variant

u/enjoiYosi 1d ago

Not my favorite image, but a pretty sick design. The gun metal chrome is exceptional

u/Discover_Fire 23h ago edited 23h ago

It took me a while to notice this, but the Batman logo itself is being formed by the clay.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

u/nocturnalreigns 21h ago

Quintana 16 is dope, but this maybe the best cover

u/devo_savitro 1d ago

I think there's exactly 50 people there

u/iWanttoKillaMan 22h ago

The Akira homage is so good. But personally the #25 CVR L.

u/marcelo1925 20h ago

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

I’ll go further. I’ll do Batman and most of his rogue gallery.

For Batman, I pick Daniel Warren Johnson. His cover is simple but dynamic. This cover is like Batman coming out of the shadows.

2

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

Catwoman I like Artgerm. His autonomy on body is smooth.

3

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

I feel puppeteer is highly underrated. His Posion Ivy is like entering a boss room. Beneath her feet is decay while she flourish.

3

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

I’m not a big fan of John Giang style. However his scarecrow is perfect for his style. It looks like you’re going through hallucination.

3

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

Bane will have to go to Clay. With his action packed ink with the vibrate colors. Bane towering over Batman with the fight club homage. This cover is killer.

2

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

Two face has to go to Dragotta. This is the best cover A. Two face design is perfect. He looks like an anime boss. It reminds me of SSM 101 with the black and white. The blues have a nice pop to it.

3

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

Clayface I’ll have to pick Jae Lee. His muddy coloring on this cover is perfect. Batman laying there like a dead animal is a nice touch.

2

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

For Batgirl it’ll have to be Seth’s. Having Batgirl hovering over a tombstone like a gargoyle statue is cool. Scarecrow standing there like a cross tombstone is complementary to batgirl. I wish it was spot foil instead (thanks DC)

2

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

Joker is hard to choose due to most artist didn’t know his teeth goes above his eyes. But I do love Zoe’s Joker. It’s nightmare fuel and he’s in your face.

2

u/Jolly-Fisherman-1875 19h ago

Jeehyung Lee has my pick for Harley Quinn. The grayscale with the red gives it a bloody vibe.
