(3/46) Sensation Comics #46. I wasn't really sure about this one, but went with it, because the car is green, like on Action 1. However, it should be noted that with Superman and WW's similar color schemes, it may just be that green was the only color of the four color printing press left to contrast with on the page.
(5/74) The Mighty World of Marvel #83. (Becasue of the guy in the bottom left corner, I think this is a homage from a slightly different angle. This is a UK volume.)
(4/03) Action Comics #800. I almost missed this one. It's a close-up, but clearly inspired by Action #1. The guy in the bottom corner is running away in the same pose as the guy on #1.
(9/06) Superman #654. (This is obviously not a direct homage, but if you look in the bottom left corner, there's the guy with his hands on his head, running away.)
(5/11) Marvel Zombies Supreme #2. This one is hard to tell, but a) Hyperion = Marvel Superman [way before Sentry], b) the issue is titled "Strange Visitor," and c) the bumper is that of a classic car, so I have to think it is meant to be an homage.
(10/12) Kevin Keller #5. (variant cover) Is the fact that he's crashing an army jeep a commentary against the repealed "don't ask, don't tell" policy? Hm.
I would have the pics in chronological order, but when you put them side-by-side like this, it does whatever it wants. So, in order shown, the above are:
(6/93) Prime #1.
(4/13) Regular Show #1.
(6/93) Prime #1, little easier to see (found via GIS)
(7/13) Uber #3.
(6/13) Superman #19.
(6/11) Action Comics #900.
(1/10) Disney Hero Squad #1.
(1/10) Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Eight #32.
(10/07) Justice Society of America #8
(10/12) Kevin Keller #5.
Working on the next 10 a couple of comment boxes below.
batkevin74: Yeah, I'm limiting it to the comic covers for my lists. All that other stuff shows up on the homage covers concept page, eventually. I just like seeing how these things progress chronologically. :)
