Worst Covers of 2025

I was thinking the Artgerm cover looked like the Milly Alcock version of Supergirl based on the trailer for the upcoming movie. So I went back and watched the trailer on a computer screen instead of my phone and realized almost all of Supergirl’s scenes have her face created/altered by AI.

That cover is bad.

Really? This is the A cover for issue #1 relaunch?

All of the open order covers are sub par. I’ll wait for the inevitable second print…

Seems like editorial asleep at the wheel. Cropping in tighter and making sure a Major Character isn’t covering half their face would have helped, but yeah – this doesn’t seem like a #1A cover.

This cover confuses me faw shaw.

Might be an unpopular take, but Jock has rested on his laurels for years. This is a complete yawn.

I will say that he tries different styles and compositions. Agreed that this doesn’t really succeed, but I give him credit for trying. So many just stick with their one thing.

I’m a fan of Jock’s stuff, but I"ll admit this isn’t one I’m feeling.

“How can I draw as little as possible” … :thinking: :thinking: :thinking:

Exactly. This was semi-fresh in my mind as well because he’s been churning out $1,000+ Batman sketches that are pretty much all the same (silhouetted Batman with next to no detail and a Batarang on a rope). I guess more power to him for making bank if it’s what sells, but it feels super phoned in to me.
