Best Comic Book Covers of the Week: 12/5/14

Check out these sweet covers.

Welcome back to another riveting edition of Comic Vine's Best Comic Book Covers of the Week where we take a look at what's got all the kids jiving and hollering from Maine to Washington: cool comic book covers. Well, that's silly. Let's get right down to business.

ANGELA: ASGARD'S ASSASSIN #1 BY Stephanie Hans

First up is ANGELA: ASGARD'S ASSASSIN #1 BY Stephanie Hans. The set up for the cover is exceptionally cool, seeing Angela walk away, on a rainbow road, from some flaming remains. There's a lot packed into this cover, but it doesn't feel overcrowded at all. It's just looks pretty rad.

RAI #5 by David Mack

Next up is RAI #5 by David Mack. It's really cool to see how David Mack emulates Japanese art style for this cover and even gives it an older look with the color palate used.

DETECTIVE COMICS #37 by Francis Manapul

Here's DETECTIVE COMICS #37 by Francis Manapul. The color work here is fantastic, from the bright splatters on the bottom of the page into the darker colors up top. Manapul always does some great cover work.

GRAYSON #5 by Mikel Janin

Coming up next is GRAYSON #5 by Mikel Janin. This is a very different style from Janin, compared to his interiors or covers of JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK, but we love it. The setting is the focus rather than the character. It's really eye catching.

Twitter Pick of the Week: THE NEW 52: FUTURES END #31 by Ryan Sook

Finally, you guys chose THE NEW 52: FUTURES END #31 by Ryan Sook. This had the most votes out of any of the picks this week and features a ton of emotion invested in each of these character's faces. While the cover looks great, it's also pretty dang depressing as well.
