Best DCM cover for a guitar?

Alternatively you might want to go with the sheer crude energy of these obscure British comic-books from the 1950s, back when Post-war import restrictions meant that readers over here were starved of the 'real' thing!

Comics cover (drawn by TV celebrity Bob Monkhouse) that has always rather disturbed me - though I can't quite put my finger on it (not that I'd want to!).

There sure are.  I'm hoping getting opinions from the folks here will help me narrow it down a bit so I know the one I pick would appeal to most others as well.  It's a bit of fun asking as well.

I've also learned I'd love to read that Blue Beetle book, too! ;)

Thanks!

Very neat!  The work (and those aliens in particular) would be at home in a 60s comix book as well.

I haven't seen these before.  Thanks!

Wow!  Phenomenal, Cim!  So many ways to go.  I love Down by the Old Mill Scream and Ghost Rider, but then Boy is smashing!  Between all the babes and the All-Select and painted covers this is getting more difficult to choose instead of easier.   ;D

But given all this help, it will be hard to pick a bad one.
