I'm not too sure how many of these I'm going to do, but this cover (it's a European Superboy cover) just kind of jumped out at me. It didn't fir my other categories unless you want to think of them as SciFi.

For the most part, these will have a recognizable superhero(ine), possibly more or less. And I'll only change the title a little, maybe - or maybe not - depending on how I feel.

I thought about putting Eerie Mysteries 8 here, but I'm sure the subject remains recognizable.

Another modified European Superboy cover. The apparently number each year from 1 to 12 so this becomes another issue 2. This one's from 1977 and the first is from 1979.

Great job! Superhero TG tales are the best. Well done!

These are both GREAT! I especially like the 1979 one; the expression on the hero(ine)'s face is perfect. Where did you find the originals?

The originals came from the pages of the Grand Comic Book Database Project:

http://www.comics.org

They have over 150,000 covers in their database and over 400,000 indexed entries from all over the world. They also advise viewer discretion as their aim to catalogue **EVERY** comic book published. And some of the French covers are... well... I think you get the idea.

A couple more modified European covers.

I didn't change the title, but if they had been solely Batman covers as they probably are in the US I would have never thought about using them this way.
