You know it is a good year when I select a Bolland cover in 3rd place. Greg Staples and Ryan Brown's covers are 2 of the best I've ever seen.

Here's my three 'penneth...

1) 1941 - Tiernen Trevallion: Love everything about this. The simplistic and yet powerful images (the pond!), the machiner/park/contrast/colours and Old Harry ...having a nose bag in't park is just champion.

2) 1951 - Old school all the way & just beats McCarthy's Bad Co cover for daftness & the fact that 2000AD can still do this well and get away with it in 2015, 30 years after the 1st Bad Co, t'warms the cockles...

3) 1945 - That's a hell of a Dredd cover. None of your stock 'Joe on a bike' hum-drum that seemed to be the thing in 2015. This is Dredd the man, burnt & beaten but not broken. It's a stunning rendition & deserves to win really if it were not for the marvellous Mr Trevallion...

Cheers

Thank you Pete!

1st) Prog 1934 by Simon Davis. For me, one of the most dynamic Slaine covers in decades. Loved it.
2nd) Prog 1915 by Greg Staples. The standard of excellence is maintained with 0.00% deviation.
3rd) Prog 1924 by Brain Bolland. I just couldn't not vote for it.

HM- Prog 1949 by Dave Kendall. One of the most memorable series in 2015, and a great cover.

1. 1961. Of significance for me as Ian Kennedy drew the cover of my first issue of 2000AD, the Sci-Fi special in 1984. This new cover is a thing of beauty, I'd put it on the wall if I didn't think Mrs Snazz might not be keen.

2. 1949. Dave Kendall's art on that whole series was magnificent and this is as iconic a picture of Sidney as you could wish for.

3. 1947. Dredd on a horse!Wait, run that by me again?

[Dash Decent]

1st - 1947 - Flintastic Dredd on horseback
2nd - 1929 - Ryan Brown's realistic looking Dredd.  Love the smoke rising over the logo.
3rd - 1945 - Jake Lynch's sizzling Dredd (though... his right hand is clenched but the shadow looks as though his hand is open).

Honourable mentions to -
1926 - Flint's precision + colourful and comicy.  It's good to be reminded this is the comic from my childhood, still around!  It may have grown up but it's great to see hints of the boy in the man.
1959 - Ditto Cliff Robinson's "Beat Cop".
1927 - Good to see the Stix brothers on the cover.

Looking through the gallery makes me think (yet again) that only Carlos can draw the definitive Johnny Alpha, or Tharg.  (Every other Tharg looks wrong to me, like when they change the actor playing Ronald McDonald in the TV commercials... "That's not the shape of his face!  That's not his voice!  Who is this imposter?  Why is everyone carrying on like nothing is different?!?")
