Giant Tire

In honor of the return of Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew, here's one of my favorite (non-monkey) covers:

Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew #16

This of course being an homage to the famous War Wheel cover, and obviously inspired by this:

Uniroyal tire in Allen Park, MI

The 8-story tall giant Uniroyal tire in Allen Park, MI--just off I-94, where I see it every time I drive to the airport.

(Ah, insomnia--it makes a blogger post the oddest things...)

Monkey Covers

Y, the Last Man #35Sunday is Monkey Covers day here at YACB. Because there's nothing better than a comic with a monkey on the cover.

Our second Monkey Cover of the year is also from one of my 2005 Favorites: Y, the Last Man #35 features Ampersand the monkey on a cover by Massimo Carnevale.
