Art Attack: September 2011's Coolest Covers

-Had like ten more covers originally, but cut it down to at least a semi-manageable visual number. Good month for art, y'all.

-Still not sure how I feel about Superman's new look(s), but Rags Morales knows how to create a striking image. Glad to have him back on a regular super hero book!

-That Animal Man cover by Travel Foreman sure as heck got my attention.

-I am not anticipating a bad Daredevil cover any time soon.

-Steve McNiven got Steve Rogers' face pitch perfect for Fear Itself--great "acting" work.

-My favorite touch on the Generation Hope cover by Rodin Esquejo: Velocidad displaying his powers in a neat visual way.

-Hercules in a Spider-Man costume should not work. It does. I want that action figure.

-Cover artist of the Month? Patrick Zircher. Good take on a classic set-up with Mystery Men, creepy Kingpin variation on Amazing Spider-Girl.

-What IS that thing holding Dani Moonstar on David Lafuente's New Mutants cover? Love it!

-That Scalped cover by Jock is darn clever.

-Kaare Andrews Ultimate Comics Ultimates cover is my current desktop background.
