CoW: Cover of the Week #17

Avengers vs X-Men #5

      I have to say. This one was tough. It came down to the Stegman variant of AvX #5 and Det. Comics #10. In the end AvX won out thanks to a little mystique and creativity. There was just something about the placement of the Phoenix Force across Hope's eyes and the way her attention sort of turned toward the camera/reader. And the tears... It just did me in. I would love to have it as a poster, without that obnoxious AvX banner Marvel is posting over everything.
