Homage Cover is a comics term that refers to the intentional copying of a cover from an earlier comic book or graphic novel that references the Original Artist. Homages often occur when a comic is rebooted to demonstrate continuity with earlier volumes. A common target of homage is the first edition of a particular comic (see list below). ==List of homage targets== Covers that have been frequently homaged include: * ''Amazing Fantasy'' #15 - first appearance of Spider-Man; Spidey swings across the page carrying a crook * ''Fantastic Four'' #1 - where a giant monster emerges from below a street. * ''Action Comics'' #1 - where Superman holds a car over his head. * ''Superman'' #1 - where Superman is posed in the middle of a leap high above a city skyline. * ''Superman'' #14 - where Superman stands with a bald eagle on his left arm. * ''Justice League'' #1 - members of the team standing in ranks looking upwards to the 'camera'. * ''Giant-Size X-Men'' #1 - where the new team of X-Men seemingly burst out from the cover while the older X-Men team looks on horrified from above. * ''The Incredible Hulk'' #1 - Bruce Banner is over shadowed by the Hulk. * ''Superman'' #199 - Superman races the Flash in a foot race (cf. Superman #463). * ''Batman: The Dark Knight Returns'' (cf. Dragon Fall #4) * ''Adventure Comics'' #247 * ''Adventure Comics'' #300 * ''Avengers'' #4 - Best known for the heroes charging towards the reader, particularly Captain America holding his shield on one arm, with his right arm pointing backward. * ''What If?'' #1 - Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four burst through a page of black-and-white comic book art. * ''Uncanny X-Men #136'' A weeping Cyclops holds the dead Jean Grey in his arms. (As Thor #127 (1966) or after Crisis on Infinite Earths #7 (Superman 1985)). This kind of cover was an homage to Michelangelo's Pietà. () * ''Transformers'' #5 - Shockwave standing in front of a wall with the words "Are All Dead". * ''Uncanny X-Men #141'' older versions of Wolverine and Kitty Pryde stand before a poster featuring their fallen comrades.
