Below you’ll find the cover of each title being released this week. Check them out. Study them. Try your best not to let your opinion of the story effect your thoughts on the cover, then vote for your favorite. If you’re like me, and can’t decide on just one, then you can select multiple covers if you would like. Following the poll for this week’s covers, you will find a poll for last week’s variant covers, and then the results from last week’s post. Happy voting!
