The 50 Best Comic Book Covers of 2009

BATGIRL #3
Even putting aside the fact that purple eyes are neat, Phil Noto's cover for Batgirl #3 is just a sharp, eye-catching portrait, and also has the added benefit of not revealing Batgirl's current (and reasonably godawful) costume. Plus, a close-up shot of eyes made a nice counterpoint to Noto's previous two covers, which focused on Batgirl's breasts and legs, respectively. Turns out her eyes really ARE up there. —SIMS
