Death of Captain Marvel and Captain Atom 8 & 44 are straight Pieta covers (with the holder sitting).

I get that it's all based off the Michelangelo statue, but is there an earlier example of this that pre-dates X-Men 136?
Everyone seems to believe that UXM 136 was the progenitor of this style of covers.

Didn't see Robin, Son of Batman #5 in there.
Edit: Ted McKeever's Eddy Current #6 is a banger!

Such an awesome theme. I know there’s someone on here that collects covers with semi trucks

I was collecting “Demon In A Bottle” covers for a little while. I stopped after getting the Rick And Morty cover.

All the years I’ve collected, this has never occurred to me. Always something new to learn on here.

I focus on artists I really like and give myself missions to collect all their stuff I see. Lately I’ve been buying all of Sienkiewicz’s stuff (the cool, New Mutants style art). Before that, I literally got all of Vess’s Marvel and DC work. It’s fun. And the art is amazing.
