Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week 02/12/14

Hey, thanks for checking out Talking Comics: Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week!

Each and every New Comic Book Release Day is a blessing. It’s the day we’re introduced to new worlds, are able to witness the next chapter in a continuing saga, or fall in love with a character or creator for the first time. I could go on and on, but I think you’ve already gotten my point. That point being … comics are awesome. So awesome in fact that even the covers of them are often times incredible works of art. We’re here to show you some of our  favorite covers each week! So go ahead and take a few moments for yourself (haven’t you earned it?) and feast your eyes on some truly inspired comic book covers!

Steve Seigh’s Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week

Memory Collectors #3

Written by Menton3 & Jason Mote

Art by Menton3 & Christopher Mitten

Cover by Menton3

“This is without a doubt one of my favorite pieces of art that I’ve ever seen from Menton3. That blue! Those swirling roses! I’ve been following Menton’s work for a number of years now, and this is without a doubt one of my all time favorite offerings from his epic imagination.” – Steve Seigh

She-Hulk #1

Writtten by Charles Soule

Art by Javier Pulito

Cover by Kevin Wada

“Who is Kevin Wada and where can I see more of his art? What’s not to love about this cover? The color palate is breathtaking, and it’s got an almost pin up girl approach to it. I’m really digging that. I’ve had a bit of a comic book crush on She-Hulk for almost a year now and I’ve got to say, Jennifer looks gorgeous!” – Steve Seigh

“I’m not familiar with the work of Kevin Wada, but off this cover, I want to see more! A fun, “fashion-y” image that speaks to what is purported to be a lighter look at super-heroics through the trials (*ouch*–sorry!) and tribulations of Marvel’s Jade Giantess!” – Bob Reyer

Superior Spider-Man #27.Now

Written by Dan Slott

Art by Giuseppe Camuncoli

Animal Variant Cover by Jenny Parks

Superior Spider-Man 27.NOW Parks Animal Variant

“You know how awesome this is. Does it really require on explanation? I didn’t think so. Meow!” – Steve Seigh

Thor: God of Thunder #19.Now

Written by Jason Aaron

Art by Esad Ribic

Animal Variant Cover by Jenny Parks

“It’s a Meow Meow weilding ‘Meow-Meow!’. Done!” – Steve Seigh

Deadpool #24

Written by Gerry Duggan & Brian Posehn

Art by Mike Hawthorn

Cover by Mark Brooks

“I’m a HUGE fan of the Alien franchise, so there wasn’t even a question as to whether or not this over would end up on my list this week. Additionally, it’s nice to see some work by Mark Brooks now that the Fearless Defenders series has wrapped.” – Steve Seigh

Bob Reyer’s Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week

Batgirl #28

Written by Gail Simone

Art by Fernando Pasarin & Jonathan Glapion

Cover by Alex Garner

“Barbara Gordon’s gone through quite a lot since reclaiming the cowl of Batgirl, but becoming a vampire tops the list! And wasn’t this supposed to be one of those sunnier “Gothtopia” tie-ins?” – Bob Reyer

Winter Soldier The Bitter March #1

Written by Rick Remender

Art& Cover by Roland Boschi

“I love the Swingin’ Sixties vibe on this cover by Roland Boschi; to me, it’s  a mix of Jim Steranko and Alex Toth, with maybe a dash of Frank Bellamy, the artist on the old “Modesty Blaise” comic strip.” – Bob Reyer

Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week Soundtrack

This list was compiled while listening to the song “Ice Cream Man” by Tom Waits.

That’s all, folks! Join us next week for another round of covers and an avalanche of incredible cover art!
