D'oh! Sheesh, I should have recognized that. Thanks, Knut.
And, no, unfortunately that wasn't a joke, William. I think I'm losing it.

This came to mind when I saw that Excalibur cover, but now that I looked it up, its not close enough to be considered a real homage, is it?

I would say not, Aaron. Looks like it could be a homage of something, though.

My memory was playing tricks and making it look more like those other covers. I hadn't actually seen it in years until 5 minutes ago.

If that first splash is a Steranko homage, Steranko's piece is surely an Eisner Homage. I can't be specific , but it registers as one. It's certainly in the Eisner "style".

Is it rmerely a swipe/homage dichotomy? Somewhere along the line
trope must enter the conversation.
