It occurs to me that it seems like many comic book covers are homages. Which is fine with me. I have no problem with it. It just made me think, though, how long could I go before I hit a week where NO new comic book was released that had a cover that was an homage to something? The streak began in September 2012. Let's see if it is still going on!

Week 205 was Neal Adams' cover for "Sixpack and Dogwelder: Hard Travelin' Heroz" #1, which homaged Adams' own cover for "Green Lantern" #76.
