Doesn’t that improve the cover with the shark? Maybe this one should be moved to the best covers of 2026? :wink:

You know, the sad thing is that this is one of his better covers in a while. This style of his would probably be better served by flat colors instead of hyper rendered “modern” coloring trying to make it something it isn’t.

This topic is a top three topic on the forum for me. I love it and even go back and look at old posts for laughs throughout the year.

Speaking of '70s sitcom characters, it’s funny Anthony mentioned the Fonz because the first thing I thought of with that Superman was Squiggy from Laverne & Shirley.

Also chuckling at the 2025 worst covers topic and seeing Miller kicked it off last year, too.

I dunno, it still reads as Rogue to me. I think this is waaaaaay better than some of the indie covers we’ve seen these last couple weeks. I don’t know this artist, but do a few different color choices change your perception?

(I am by no means a professional, just trying a “do less with faces” approach.)

Looks like a girl to me…
