New Image
Here are some Giant-Size X-Men #1 homage covers published by Image.
That's pretty cool. There may be more tributes to ADVENTURE COMICS #247 than any other comic (the 1st LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES story) but the tradition of one cover paying tribute (SWIPING???) another continues. Over at Nick Simon's Silver Age Marvel site, I was adding more and more of these sort of things, with "compare" pages so you could look at the original and tribute versions side-by-side (then click on either to get the full-size version). It continues to annoy me that the site went down, and the server (in Norway) never gave either of us an explanation.
