Covered
Oct 06 2009
What’s better than awesome comic book cover art? How about putting it along-side interpretations of the same covers from modern artists? That’s exactly what the blog Covered is all about. It features a lot of original cover art from the 60’s and 70’s (but also some that are more recent) and pair it with an artist’s new version. They take on all sorts of subjects and styles.
I love seeing how some of the covers are really similar to the original while some are totally different. The typography is often a gem in itself.
