Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed #113

Filed under: Swiped: Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed! — Doorman @ 9:59 am

After looking at hundreds of comic book covers, it becomes quickly apparent that not every cover is 100% original. Whether done intentionally or even underhandedly, there’s something about uncovering these “swipes” that adds a new element of fun to reading and collecting comics.

Reform School Girl was one of the highlights of Dr. Wertham’s attack on comic books: Seduction of the Innocent. The last issue of Milton Knight’s Midnite the Rebel Skunk pays homage to that now-classic cover.
