JLAFan's Christmas Contest

BobBretall · Post by **BobBretall** » Sun Dec 09, 2007 7:16 pm

I had a contest related to the image I used for my Christams card last year, and I have had lots (OK, two) requests to have another this year.

So, here's the deal. Look at the following image:

The Task!
* Identify as many of the holiday-themed comic books on this image as you can. Accuracy counts, if there are more than one series with that name, specify the year or volume, etc. I am going to go by the name in the indicia inside the comics for official rulings.

Enter!
By sending an e-mail to theGuys@ComicBookPage.com
Your Subject should include: Christmas Contest (yourName)

The Prize!
Kraven's Last Hunt HC (Direct Market version, limited to 2000 copies)
* by DeMatteis/Zeck (ASM 293-294, Spec Spider-Man 131-132, Web of SM 31-32)

The Deadline!
E-mails must be received by Midnight (Pacific time) on Friday Dec 21st.
* Winner will be drawn when John & I record the Special Christmas episode of Back Issue Spotlight (hopefully on Dec 22nd).
* If there is a tie (more than one person with the most correct comics identified) I will have a random drawing of names to serve as the tiebreaker.

I think ImageShack is having some problems. It is up at the moment but I've gone ahead and grabed a copy of it and uploaded it to the Comic Book Page web server:

And here is a image with the covers numbers that was kindly provided by Will:

Thanks, Will.

We'll take the answers in any order, of course. But this might help people keep track of which one is driving them crazy...

12/13 is the best I could do!

#2 & 10 seem to be giving folks the most trouble.

If you have sent an entry in with less than all 13 identified, feel free to send a revised entry prior to the deadline.

#s 2 and 4 are the ones I'm having issues with. 10 I found by getting lucky.
