AA Weekend Covers
No theme this week. Just one awesome cover, and one that's a piece of ass. Enjoy.
AWESOME

I was actually looking for a different cover when I ran across this one. Honestly, I don't know anything about this 3-issue limited series by Howard Chaykin and JLGL. But all three issues have these beautifully rendered, monochromatic cover design. There's something very majestic and grand about them, which by the look of the previous covers, ties in with the story. Remember kids, it's always about the entire package. A nice cover illustration is elevated tenfold in the service of a well thought out overall package design.
ASS
(click to enlarge) Extreme Justice #6 (July 1995) by Marc Campos.
Really, Booster? Well guess what? "Give me my $1.75 back!" Actually, while you're at it, give me the whole 90s back. As you all know, Extreme (EXTREME!!!) Justice was DC's sad, sad attempt to hop on the Liefeld/McFarlane/Image/Extreme/Awesome bandwagon, presenting a gritty, balls to the wall, they're-all-loose-cannons version of the Justice League. The results were laughable, if nothing else. The only thing nice I can say about this cover is that at least Campos can draw better teeth than Liefeld.
