The end of the week means it is time for some Cover of the Week nominations. Ryan and I chose Cinderella: From Fabletown with Love #1 for our CotW while Matt went with Batman: The Widening Gyre #3. Hit the jump for a look at each cover and our reasons for choosing them.Ryan's & Kirk's Cover of the Week - Cinderlla: From Fabletown with Love #1
Ryan: I was blown away by this amazing cover from the first time I saw it. Chrissie Zullo really packs in the details on this hauntingly beautiful cover. Every time I look at it, I see something new that makes me love it that much more.
Kirk: I absolutely love this cover as well. Just such a unique style and something you don't see every day. I'm also a sucker for overly detailed backgrounds and all the little extras packed into it.
Matt's Cover of the Week - Batman: The Widening Gyre #3
Matt: I'm not sure how representative this cover is of what is going inside the book, but the contrast of light and dark imagery really works to make the cover stand out. Kudos to Bill Sienkiewicz for coming up with such a strange image of Batman standing in a tropical paradise.
Runners-Up: Secret Six #15, Batman Confidential #36 & Iron Man & The Armor Wars #4

Can't say I like the widening gyre cover simply because Sienciewicz has done far FAR better stuff with his old New mutants covers.
With that in mind though I can't say any cover really clicked with me this week...
@Flip - man, Sienkiewicz did all sorts of great work, you and your New Mutant love, haha, I like that cover, seeing Batman in those colours has to be interesting. Imagine Brice Wayne getting a sunburn just around his mouth, creepy.
