DC Comics Best Covers of the Week 11/2/16

My Dad Can Beat Up Your Dad

You know, it just occurred to me: by doing this article next week, I'm covering covers! Whoaa...nice batch this week, though it looks like some regular ones edged out the variants. One of them is sort of a personal pleasure of mine...why am I writing about the covers I'm going to write about? Read on and take a look!


Cyborg #4
Paul Pelletier & Scott Hanna with Guy Major
I like the design of this cover, but I really love the Kirby-style lines that make up the machine side of Cyborg's head. Reminds me of classic Fantastic Four.






Harley Quinn #7 variant
Bill Sinekiewicz
I think I like this cover because it's really spooky, even though I'm not sure what's happening here. It looks like a horror movie poster.






Superman #10
Patrick Gleason and Mick Gray
You have to love this cover if you have any feelings at all. This is the Super-Sons moment we've been waiting for! This thick-necked Batman reminds me of Ed McGuinness' art.






Aquaman #10 variant
Joshua Middleton
What is it with these Aquaman variants? They've been looking like awesome classic movie posters and book covers. All thanks to Joshua Middleton. Hey Josh, wanna design a logo for the site?





 
Green Arrow #10
Juan Ferrerya
Juan is back in the Green Arrow saddle, and he lets us know with this explosive cover. It's like a frame right out of an action movie, the perspective is just absolutely perfect.

  1. Good picks. I really thought the Green Lanterns had two great covers, both main and variant. I am also enjoying Andrew Robin's style in the Superman variant covers for the last 3 issues.

    1. You know, I came close to picking the Green Lanterns variant, with the splotchy-colored Baz, but I personally liked the Cyborg cover a little more. But it, along with the regular cover, are great in showing how experimenting with coloring can really make an image pop!
