Marko Djurdjevic has definitely become one of the great cover artists of our time. The way that he draws motion on this cover is strikingly moving. The shield upper cut is a move that Steve Rogers has done since World War II and it’s nice to see the new Cap, Bucky Barnes, keep it alive [...]

Cover of the Week: Shadowland: Moon Knight #2
Francesco Mattina brings his particular brand of awesome over from DC Comics to Marvel with this cover for Shadowland: Moon Knight #2. Then man should always do covers for characters that have capes. The way he makes a cape look scary is, in its own right, a thing of artistic beauty. I would be curious [...]
Cover of the Week: Thor: For Asgard #2
I have a feeling that with the Thor movie set to come out summer 2011 there should be a lot more Asgardian related covers that will grace our COW column. Though, none may be as original as this cover by Simone Bianchi. Bianchi’s interpretation of the god of thunder is probably my favorite ever. I [...]
Cover of the Week: Avengers: The Childrens Crusade #2
There is a lot going on in this stunning Jimmy Cheung cover for Avengers: The Childrens Crusade #2. I love how many characters are actually on the cover and think that the way Cheung has Magneto’s head in the back ground is great. I do have a problem with Wolverine having such a predominant role [...]
Cover of the Week: GREEN ARROW #3
The cover of Green Arrow #3 gives us a disturbing image of our emerald archer. It is also a cautionary tale of why you shouldn’t look at your bow when you load it. The highly detailed MAURO CASCIOLI cover caught my eye immediately. I usually like the covers that have female heroes on them, but [...]
Cover of the Week: Birds of Prey #4
Girls kick ass! It’s just a cold… hard… fact. In this ass kicking cover for Birds of Prey #4, it looks like Black Canary has her hands full. Alina Urusov gives us not only a beautiful fight scene, but a great perspective to see it from. I get bored of fights that are the same [...]
Cover of the Week: Superman: The Last Family of Krypton
I love finding new artists for a our COW column. I know that I have my favorite people and I can be a little bias, but it looks like Felipe Massafera has just landed in my radar zone. The cover for Superman: The Last Family of Krypton caught my eye immediately. At first I thought [...]
Cover of the Week: Green Hornet #6
It has been quite some time since mega artist Alex Ross has visited our COW column and all I have to say is welcome back. Ross has been doing great covers for Kevin Smith’s The Green Hornet, but none have popped for me like the cover for issue #6. Smith’s Hornet has been a great [...]
Cover of the Week: SDCC Steve Rogers: Super Soldier #1 Variant
Along with action figure exclusive, San Diego Comic- Con also does some comic books as well. The offerings range from each publisher and most times the covers are pretty good. The fact that we are in San Diego has caused me to choose the SDCC Steve Rogers: Super Soldier #1 sketch variant. It shows a [...]
Cover of the Week: Uncanny X-Men #524
See this weeks COW after the jump. WARNING SPOILER ALERT!!!
