For me, its the first QR Variant. Such an epic and iconic cover.

Re: Favorite Valiant Covers From The Relaunch
The list of great covers are seemingly endless
I loved all the Bloodshot #1's - Aja and Ribic's are awesome
All the Johnson shadowman variant covers are great (including my avatar - Dr. Mirage talks to the dead)
Zircher has a lot of great covers
I love the Mack Shadowman cover
Harbinger #12 Reeder cover is great
Harbinger Wars has some great covers
The Lemire cover is great
But this bute is probably is #1 for me - it has such great intensity

Re: Favorite Valiant Covers From The Relaunch
Harbinger 1 cover by Arturo Lozzi is the most iconic, I even had David Lapham do a version of it.
Harbinger 5 cover by Mico Suayan is my second favorite, again, I managed to get Lapham do a version of it.
Archer & Armstrong 6 cover by Emanuela Lupacchino. I liked it so much bought the inked version of it.
X-O Manowar 4 cover by Doug Braithwaite. I spoke to Doug about it, it was priced way out of my range.
X-O Manowar 6 cover by Patrick Zircher, a superb homage
X-O Manowar 11 cover by Bart Sears. A great welcome back.

Re: Favorite Valiant Covers From The Relaunch
My top two have been pricey line-wide variants I haven't been able to get yet:
Harbinger 8 Lemire
Shadowman 5 Grampa
Lots of good covers to choose, but those are my top two.

Re: Favorite Valiant Covers From The Relaunch
Many of those are on my list, but one that wasn't mentioned (and I suck with this posting a photo thing) is the Harbinger Wars #1 Clayton Henry version. It's a 3 cover spread, with a Harbinger 11 on the right side, and a Bloodshot 10 on the left.
Loved the Amy Reeder Harby 12
Archer & Armstrong 11 (Brady Bunch cover)
Bloodshot 7 (bullet holes through the Harbinger logo)
EDIT: I think both rounds of the 8 bit covers were absolutely flawless as well. The pairings of the titles with the games was incredible. Loved the Eternal Warrior mash-up with Pitfall. Epic!

Re: Favorite Valiant Covers From The Relaunch
There are a ton of great covers that I love, but the Brathwaite variant for Harbinger #1 remains a top favourite for me. I just love that it's full of emotional impact, intense power & also a brilliant nod (but not a copy) of the original VH1 Harbinger #1.

Re: Favorite Valiant Covers From The Relaunch
This might have taken the lead as my favorite cover. Very imaginative. Very Stylish.
