Well if you are going to have one Bill piece this is the ONE!!! fantastic and iconic cover.
This is too good... It's such a pleasure to see all of these grails; thanks for posting!
The sexiest cover of all time. Well done sir.
I was around 9 years old when this book came out. I was reading comics, but certainly not reading adult comics yet. But I was aware of it cause I saw all the house ads and the American Comics ads that said "HOT!!" and hyped it up.
Just looking at the cover, I knew it was dark and other-wordly and nothing at all like the safe "kiddie" comics I was reading.
I love this image. There's something a little thrilling when you're a kid and get just a little peak into the adult world. This and the Batman 400 covers are forever seared into my brian.
If I had to sum up the mid-1980s in one image....this would be it.
Sienkewicz has done hundreds of timeless iconic covers, but this one for sure is one of the absolute masterpieces. Can't imagine what it must be like to see it in person!
