Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week 10/14/15

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

You’ve got to admit, New Comic Book Release Day is pretty much the best day of the week. 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

Catwoman #45

Written by Genevieve Valentine

Art by David Messina

Monster Variant Cover by Robbi Rodriguez

1469861_xl

Meow meow meow! I love this cover! Perhaps if Frankenstein’s monster looked and moved a bit more like Selina Kyle the villagers wouldn’t have been so afraid.

DC Comics Bombshells #3

Written by Margueritte Bennett – Laura Braga

Art by Margueritte Sauvage

Cover by Ant Lucia

1469866_xl

I really dig this almost old-school magic show advertisement cover. Not only does the bunny at the bottom-right corner remind me of Bunnicula, but that sinister toothy grin in the upper-right is giving me the creeps something major.

Harley Quinn #21

Written by Amanda Connor – Jimmy Palmiotti

Art by John Timms

Monster Variant Cover by Ryan Sook

1469887_xl

Heh. Proof that Harley could thousands of years old, dead and mummified, but she still looks good.

Starfire #5

Written by Amanda Connor – Jimmy Palmiotti

Art by Emanuela Lupacchino – Ray McCarthy

1469923_xl

Not only have I always loved The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, but these water-colors are simply divine!

Wicked + Divine #15

Written by Kieron Gillen

Art by Jamie McKelvie – Various

Cover by Stephanie Hans

1470013_xl

Wow! This is gorgeous! Also, is it giving anyone else a real Florence and the Machine kind of vibe?

Bob Reyer’s Favorite Comic Book Covers of the Week

HARROW COUNTY #6 (Dark Horse)

Writer: Cullen Bunn

Artist/Cover: Tyler Crook

unnamed

I think the first word that comes to mind is…”Yuck!”

HARLEY QUINN #21 (DC)

Writer: Amanda Conner; Jimmy Palmiotti

Artist: John Timms

Cover: Amanda Conner

unnamed (1)

As we’re halfway through October, it’s getting close to Harley-ween! (Sorry, that was a terrible pun, even for me!)

STARFIRE #5 (DC)

Writer: Amanda Conner; Jimmy Palmiotti

Artist: Emanuella Lupacchino

Cover: Amanda Conner

unnamed (2)

I heard it from Mr. P. himself that “Despite a whole lot of stuff blowin’ up, no dolphins were harmed during the making of this book!”

SWITCH #1 (Top Cow/Image)

Writer/Artist/Cover: Stjepan Sejic

unnamed (3)

Steve will probably select this one, too, but that’s all good, as this image is worth being seen again, as is the variant shown below:

unnamed (4)

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #1 (Marvel)

Writer: Brian Michael Bendis

Artist: Valerio Schiti

Variant Cover: Michael Allred

unnamed (5)

C’mon… a Groot cover by Mike Allred would be on your list, too–am I right?

MS. MARVEL #19 (Marvel)

Writer: G. Willow Wilson

Artist: Adrian Alphona

Variant Cover: Cliff Chiang

unnamed (6)

I know that it’s “Monster Variant Month” or some such, but I still don’t get why the FF are on this cover of Ms. Marvel, but that I het to see them drawn by Mr. Chiang is a definite treat!
