@RobAnderson Here's another Marvel anthology cover. And it's that man again. I suspect most of us can remember the first artist whose style we learnt to recognise, and distinguish from others. For me it was Gil Kane.
@rebis FOOM!!!! Just read a great article on FOOM in Back Issue #49. And coincidentally, @dubbat138 , there was also an article in there on Fitzgerald Publications.
@Caliban -- love the Kane! Yep, I'm pretty sure he was one of the first artists I recognized. (Maybe John Buscema or Kirby were first for me, but Kane was close).
@John_Steed -- thanks for posting the Harvey nominees! They all ROCK! That will be helpful when I need to vote!
Today, the random draw brought a John Romita Sr. cover
As much as I love J.H. Williams’ work, and I’ve come to love Paolo Rivera’s stuff, it’s gotta be Marcos Martin for the win! He should have won it a few years back for his Batgirl covers. Graphic goodness!:
The random cover of the day (Marvel 1973) is by John Romita, Sr. And, incidentally, that Black Widow in the center of the cover was used for her Marvel Value Stamp a couple years later.

@dubbat138 I love so many of those Bolland Animal Man covers, even though I've never read the run! (Enjoying Lemire's current run, though.)
The original Animal Man run was amazing. All the way to the end.
One of my favorite "All New/All Different" images.

I have a hard time believing that it was accidental.

@Caliban I've just seen those Fringe covers here or there -- what a cool Easter Egg for the show...
@Marathon Wow, yet another I had never seen at all!
From me, today's Random Cover of the Day (Marvel 1973) is by Rich Buckler and Joe Sinnott!
