We round up what we feel are the best looking covers of all of this week's new releases.

It's hard to believe another week has flown by! After looking through all of this week's new comics, we chose some of our favorite covers -- we hope you find them as impressive as we did.

First up is ANGEL & FAITH #12. My goodness, if this isn't one of the most beautiful and intricate covers I have seen in quite some time, then I just don't know. The stunning image not only features many very scary looking beasts, but it also reminds me a lot of an iconic image you may have seen in church if you're Catholic. Truly spectacular work by artist Steve Morris.

AMERICAN VAMPIRE #29 is the next cover on our list. Rafael Albuquerque does a great job with this image, providing a stark contrast between two figures; one in light and the other shrouded in darkness. This is a great, very stylized cover.

The cover to DARK SHADOWS #6 by Francesco Francavilla is absolutely stunning. I love the dark, gritty feel of this cover and the way Francavilla uses the image of the skull to create the main protagonist. It's really, really beautiful. I also adore his use of shadows in this image and the fact that he uses similar tones and colors.

Finally is the cover for I, VAMPIRE by Clayton Crain. I think it's awesome to see the two central characters tearing through a group of vicious zombies -- it's a pretty provoking image. I love how they both look so strong and empowered, too. Really great stuff. I also liked that Crain used pastels, greys and reds to color the image.

These are some of our favorite this week, what are yours? Let us know in the comments below, or post an image of your favorite comic cover this week!
