Cover of the Week - Superman and Daredevil

Let's close out the week with some fantabulous Covers of the Week, shall we?  This time around, we have some super punches and some daring tightrope crossings.  So hit the jump to see these beauts, along with our always lovely honourable mentions!

Ken's Cover of the Week - Superman #20 by Aaron Kuder


Ken: In the face! Heroes punching each other with the yellow background, it stands out, and really does its best to make you want to pick up the issue, even if Scott Lobdell's name is on the cover. Plus with the smash sound effect it looks like Superman Smash!, so look out Hulk.

Grant's Cover of the Week - Daredevil #26 by Chris Samnee



Grant: This cover is absolutely gorgeous.  I love how Chris Samnee mixes Daredevil's determination with the lightheartedness of him running across a clothesline.  There's some nice movement at play there, and I really like the beautiful New York background behind him.  It's especially impressive when you consider that a lot of those details, like the reflections, actually end up being hidden by those big red banners Marvel plasters on their books.

Runner-Ups:  The Bounce #1, Young Avengers #5, Five Ghosts: The Haunting of Fabian Gray #3

The first shirt is a Planeteer shirt, right? If so, then that makes this DD cover doubly awesome!
