I'm just sick of all the parody/homage covers! Once in a while is fine, but sometimes I feel like people have forgotten how to draw something new and original.

Every once in a while, I'll see the primary cover for a Kickstarter project just be an homage cover, and I'm like, come on, you aren't even TRYING.

gimme covers where the main character is acting like a dick and the only way to find out why is to read inside.

Remember when DC did that month where the cover was also the first page of the story? That was cool.

Those split covers with captions:

SEE

Scarlet Witch do her laundry!

Hercules get angry about Moonlighting airing another repeat!

Hawkeye get punched in the nuts!

Wasp adds shoulder pads to her new costume!

That's how you sell a comic book, baby!

And, like the best covers of this sort, bears only the slightest passing resemblance to the actual scene in the comic.
