Comic Book Covers

Unfortunately a good deal of artists were unappreciated at Marvel Comics, even the late great Jack Kirby was upset by this and went to DC Comics for a while.
 
This is one of my favorite comic book stories.

This tale was part of a multicomic crossover series about the powerful and villainous THANOS trying to rule the universe during the 1970's.

as well as the artwork from the classic comic covers of the past.

One of my favorite HULK stories, in this issue he battles against the mightiest villains from Marvel Comics early 1960's monster comic books with none stop action!
Cover art by Jack Kirby who also created all of the fiendish bad guys.

(She-Hulk battles Red Hulk)​


HULK went through a few color changes like Gray, and like you see here Red, but that was because something happen to him. Eventually he would return to his greenish color.

If you're going up against She-Hulk, you better bring bigger guns.
 
I always loved those old covers and artwork from Neal Adams.

Nice to meet you Rand00. I'm a big fan too of Neal Adams, I especially like his work on Batman. If you look back in this thread you'll see some of his cover art.

Here's some you might like.
