COVER OF THE WEEK #8

COVER OF THE WEEK #8




































COVER by Maruo Cascioli


by Darryll Carter 

Okay, the CoW this week is a little different. Typically, the CoW is the cover of a title released in

the previous week. For instance, this week should have been an issue that hit the stands last week.
I like to keep it current. But then it dawned on me... Why?

As I was scowering through the issues released last week I saw Green Arrow #7 and decided to take a look at it. What I found was the cover to Brightest Day Green Arrow #7. Let me tell you... This cover trumps anything else that I looked at. The Fairest #1 cover was close second, but this topped my list.

The art and visual style speaks for its self; from the vines and plants forming Green Arrow's hood to the intricate patterns between the arrows in the background. They managed to capture the otherworldy aura of the white maned woman so well too. It's just beautiful to look at. If I gave the CoW stars this would surely be a 5/5. It'll just have to settle for the Golden Udder though.
