Mine has to be Identity crisis #7 by Michael Turner. The Clue was right there on the cover and noone guessed it. The Costumes all Hung up has a powerful meaning of what these heros will give up to protect the ones they love.

The first appearance of Batman's most dangerous foe as depicted by Neal Adams, the definitive Batman artist. :up:

There are others that are close but that one really does it for me. :up:

Any of the Dec 97 comic covers. They all have that same kind of picture on it, which was awesome.
 
Its not because its turner, i like the way the costumes are all hanging there
 
the cover to CAPTAIN ACTION #3 where the captain holds his injured son carl [as action boy] and says
"hear me DR. EVIL justice will be done
I SWEAR IT"
also the E.AW.#3 JUDOMASTER cover poster
and the ANTHRO poster from the '60's with two women fighting to see who will marry him
 
what, no selections from superdickery?
 
So many great ones to choose from. Here's one of my favorites.

I can never pick an absolute most favorite anything, but Matt Wagner's GA covers were amazing

now, if you expand to include Vertigo, they top all other DC covers combined. From the visceral Preacher covers by Glenn Fabry, the mouth wateringly gorgeous Fables covers by James Jean, the mystifying Sandman covers by Dave McKean, the hip and sleek 100 Bullets covers by Dave Johnson, along with those for Hellblazer, Y-The Last Man, The Invisibles, Shade, Animal Man, and even lesser or forgotten series like The Crusades, are all spectacular.

Vertigo I would say easily has the greatest selection of comic covers ever.

It's tied with this one:

Adam Hughes. Every cover Hughes draws is a gem.

I tend to also like some of the variant covers from DC. I rarely ever buy a variant cover unless Neal Adams drew it.

What about the early SOTB covers, painted by Steelfreeze. I always thought those where really awesome.

good thread! I am really amazed by the diversity of covers. I was expecting a Jim Lee / F. Miller assembly .... my mistake!
I don't have only one but I have a few:
