Cover of the Week - Phantom Stranger and Dial H

Here's your weekcap with our vaunted Covers of the Week.  We've some creepy covers for you this time around, including a misplaced spectre and an insectoid man.  Please click through to see these and the honourable mentions for the week.

Ken's Cover of the Week - Phantom Stranger #5 by Jae Lee


Ken: A cover that might be better for around Halloween time, this is one of those concepts that make you wonder what exactly is going on with the Stranger drooling green, and then you realize it's a cape and see the Spectre trying to pop out of his eye. It's incredibly creepy, but at the same time not in your face about it. Subtle scary, is that a thing? Anyways, it's just the type of cover you don't see these days, bravo Jae Lee.

Grant's Cover of the Week - Dial H #9 by Brian Bolland


Grant: I didn't end up sticking with Dial H, but these covers by Brian Bolland really make me wish I had.  What's up with this ant-headed man?  Is he friend?  Foe?  Why does he have so many arms?  And what's up with all those stairs in the background?  It's a striking image, raises a ton of questions, and makes me want to pick up the book to get to the bottom of everything.  What more could you ask for?

Runner-Ups:  Dia De Los Meurtos #1, Snapshot #1, Scarlet #6
