Art Attack: October 2011's Coolest Covers

Ah, what better way to push past the post Comic-Con hangover than with some sweet covers for Halloween time...

-Travel Foreman's Animal Man covers are super unsettling. That's a good thing because I notice them.

-More "retro" Black Panther covers from Francesco Francavilla please!

-Four months, still not a bad Daredevil cover.

-Ryan Sook's cover for DC Comics Presents #2 captures the essence of what I see Deadman as being about as a character and strip if that makes sense.

-Simon Bisley is such a strange choice for Deathstroke cover artist--I dig it.

-Hot skullhead-on-skullhead action by Adam Kubert on the cover to Ghost Rider #4! HOT!

-I love the way Doug Mahnke draws Sinestro Corps members, especially the double header dude.

-More Juan Doe: Always a good thing.

-By virtue of that Black Panther cover and his Pigs image, I decree Francesco Francavilla my cover artist of the month (David Aja in close second).

-Is Erik Larsen's Bin Laden cover for Savage Dragon controversial? I don't know, but it got my attention.

-Lovely to see Tony Harris drawing The Shade again.

-The cover to Spider-Island: Cloak & Dagger #3 is trippy. The way Emma Rios' mind works fascinates me.

-Perhaps putting the 20th Anniversary Edition of X-Men #1's cover on here is a cheat, but Thomas Mason's re-coloring job is that good.
