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 on September 27, 2012. I last checked in with the streak back at the end of June, so there are roughly four months' worth of cover homages to take a look at!
Week 301 was Larry Stroman's cover for Multiple Man #1, which homaged Jack Kirby's cover for Avengers #16.
Week 302 was Russell Dauterman's cover for Death of the Inhumans #5, which homaged Frank Miller and Klaus Janson's cover for Daredevil #182.
Week 303 was Peter Krause's cover for Archie #32, which homaged the album cover of The Beatles' Abbey Road.
Week 304 was Robbi Rodriguez's cover for Spider-Gwen #34, which homaged Rodriguez's own cover for Edge of Spider-Verse #2.
Week 305 was Jay Anacleto's cover for Marvel Two-in-One #8, which homaged Grant Wood's painting, American Gothic.
Week 306 was Audrey Mok cover for Go Go Power Rangers #12, which homaged the movie poster for The Goonies..
Week 307 was John Cassaday's cover for Fantastic Four #1, which homaged Jack Kirby's cover for Fantastic Four #51.

Well, that's 321 weeks down. Will it reach 322? I'll be here to let you know! Feel free to drop me a line at brianc@cbr.com when you see a good comic book cover homage released during any given week, as that would certainly make things easier for me when I next get around to doing the streak!
