THE OFFICIAL 2021 2000 AD COVER OF THE YEAR VOTE

[gogilesgo]

2234 Plummet of the Ape - PJ Holden.

Something very magical in the simplicity of this cover.



2229 Crunch Point - Dermot Power

OK, the lawgiver barrel is a bit wonky but everything else is ace. Great shit-eating grin from Dredd, as he strides over a crushed droid (a crucial turning point for the episode within) with boots that would do McMahon proud.



2251 Escape into the Unknown - Mark Harrison

Very busy without being overwhelming. Lovely colouring and a great central focus.

With honourable mentions to Chris Weston's prog 2260 Klegg montage, Dylan Teague's impeccably drafted prog 2236 Dredd, Simon Davis's hauntingly minimal brace of Thistlebone covers and of course as ever, all of Cliff Robinson's other phenomenal efforts.

Loved Dan Cornwell's prog 2241 Department K cover too!

Revisiting these excellent covers has totally inspired me to buy the Covers Uncovered Annual.

1st - 2248. Just gorgeous composition and intriguing premise  from an old master

2nd - 2233 - a regened and refreshing take on a cover we've seen in many forms before.

3rd - 2244 - a muscular rendering and slightly disturbing image that grabs you by the scruff of the neck and you don't need a gladius pointed at your throat to say you love it

2248 -

1. 2240- quite rightly chosen as the cover for the Covers Uncovered Annual.

2. 2232- Disturbing badger murder.

3. 2215- The last action-packed Slaine cover, like they used to be.

So many great covers, I love a bunch equally. Here were my favorites at a glance.

1. 2216 - This Simpson cover has a cool Dead Man / Western vibe that I really like.
2. 2231 - Another classic Robinson Dredd cover.
3. 2225 - This is a cover that makes me want to buy an issue to see the story inside, Foster is fantastic.

HM: 2221 - Love this Ezquerra homage by Holden!

[Sean SD]

2236 Teague
2215 Montague
2222 McCarthy
