KLASSIC KIRBY KOMIC KOVERS: JOURNEY Into MYSTERY #83...

THOR The MIGHTY looks a little undernourished in this cover, as he did in many of his early appearances, but it wasn't too long before he was beefed-up and looked a bit more manly (despite the long hair).  When this illo was used in The MIGHTY WORLD Of MARVEL #20 to promote Thor's 'debut' in SPIDER-MAN COMICS WEEKLY #1, it was retouched to make him look bulkier and more impressive, as befitting his godly status.

The original is still a great cover though, eh?

Oops!  Just noticed that I posted this cover not long ago as part of the 'Klassic Komic Kovers' series.  My ol' memory must be failing me!  Never mind, at least it provides you with a choice of my woeful waffle to read, depending on which of the two posts you happen upon.  Aren't I generous?!

The GREATEST COMIC BOOK COVERS Of ALL TIME!

Here's a wee something I picked up in a local comicbook store today.  (Better watch that, I'll likely get caught one day!  Joke.)  As you can see, it's a book called The GREATEST COMIC BOOK COVERS Of ALL TIME! - a slim volume, but with some nice covers within its pages.  It was difficult deciding which examples to show you, but in the end, I decided to go with a couple from the CHEESY CHEESECAKE section, so here they are.  Now if these don't convince you to seek out a copy of this COMIC BUYER'S GUIDE presentation, nothing will.

What would be your 20 greatest covers of all time?
