Cover "art"

I started making comic covers way back when, but I never showed them to people I don't know, but, since I've been on the forums a lot in the past few weeks, I figured I'd post these. FYI, they're posted in order from earliest to latest, so if you think the first ones are terrible (and they are), you might want to continue to see what I tried later.

So here's what I've got:
<ul type="square">[*]MrWonderful, Issue 1, complete with more than one issue :P[*]Awesome Man Promotional Issue with more than one reference to a Steven Lynch song.[*]The International Justice League of Toasted Badgers, Return of Crab-Man storyarc cover... don't ask.[*]Task Force: Los Alamos 08/05 Issue: Triple Threat Part 3[*]Task Force: Los Alamos 09/05 Issue: The Clockwork King Retaliates[*]Task Force: Los Alamos 10/05 Issue: Showdown (Featuring Bohanatsu and Pink-Cowboy)[*]Task Force: Los Alamos 11/05 Issue: To the Victor Goes the Spoils (Featuring Bohanatsu and Pink-Cowboy)[*]Task Force: Los Alamos 12/05 Issue: The Ultimate Combination of Heroes (Featuring Bohanatsu and Pink-Cowboy; Continued in Ultimate Team #1)[*]Wonderful/Knuckle Issue 1 and an alternate cover, the first comic that should actually have more than just a cover. In our supergroup, the Ultimate Team, MrWonderful and Sgt. Knuckle are sort of the Superman and Batman of the group, respectively, so it seemed only appropriate.[/list]
Anyway, I don't think they're amazingly fantastic, but they're at least fun to look at and I was just hoping for a tad bit of feedback other than "turn your graphics settings up" please

Nice!!

Very very nice!!

The one cover with Clockwork king is way dark though, but that is most likely my comp.

If I had one bit of critizism (sp?)

Add. More. Chicks!! This cannot be stressed enough. I get this whole "Brokeback Mountain Vibe" looking at these.......especailly with Pink Cowboy in the mix.

BUT, hey- if that is your thing- cool man, cool. Pay me no mind.

Post Script-
Chicks (well to be frank, BOOBS ----&gt; (o)(o) &lt;----like these) sell books.

Hope to see more!! Definetly.

That is all.



Okay...helpful hint- not critsizm- the eyes being inherintly (christ what the hell is up with my spelling?! nvm) The eye being lazy is drawn to white, so white helps make your picture more "eye appealing". I learned this from none other than Calvin and Hobbes Creator and Cartoon Jedi Master, Bill Watterson. It was in one of the C&amp;H collected works.

Man....sorry rambling....

K'.......Now, THAT is all.

Ha ha, thanks guys.

Actually the Clockwork King one is pretty dark to try to compensate for the differences between the background, the character, the chains and the Clockwork King, because they all came from different places. That was before I knew how to equalize things out.
