Complex.com’s 50 best comic covers of 2009
The Transformers: All Hail Megatron #9, Detective Comics #857 and Dark X-Men: The Beginning #1
At Complex.com I join Complex Magazine Design Director Tim Leong, Comics Alliance Editor Laura Hudson and Chris Sims of Chris’s Invincible Super-Blog fame to select and comment on the 50 best comic-book covers of 2009.
The covers, as the introduction to the list acknowledges, are pretty mainstream and heavy on the superhero fare (we were provided with a list of candidates, and asked to whittle the number to 50). Still, they reflect a solid range of cover artists, from John Cassaday and J.H. Williams III to Yuko Shimizu and Juan Doe.
As I did last January, I’ll be making my own list of the best covers of 2009 after the first of the year.
