![]() Best cover of all time. Period. We're sorry we made fun of all those other covers. This is it. IDW may as well close up shop. Fun Publications can lose the license and it won't even matter. Fire all the artists. Art is dead and this cover killed it. Just re-release this issue every couple of months. Heck, just mail out the cover on its own. Wallpaper a room with 'em. Come election year, wander around town stuffing them in letterboxes. Load them into shuttles and launch them into space, so that aliens' first contact with our culture can be through this glorious image. Here before you is proof that God exists, and he has manifested himself in the form of whoever created this masterpiece. If you think it sounds like we're exaggerating our feelings about this cover for comedic effect, then clearly you need to buy some glasses and take a good long look at yourself followed by a longer look at this cover. The entirety of human history has led to this moment. All we're saying is that it can only go KDOWN from here. | |||||||||||||

- In the profile for SG Cyclonus, "imminent" is misspelled.
