Starting this entry off with heroes fighting dinosaurs might raise expectations too high. SO CHECK YOURSELVES, PEOPLE! It can't get any better. Steve Rogers: Super-Soldier # 4 (of 4) by Carlos Pacheco:
Or can it? Steve Rogers vs. Robots! And a flamethrower! Probably at night too. This is not your father's J. Giles video! Untold Tales of Blackest Night # 1 by Tyler Kirkham & Batt:
Or unrevealed nuggets from Blackest Night? What, we don't know it all?! (I certainly don't. Way behind on my GL/GLC/BN reading.) Justice Society of America # 44 by Shane Davis & Sandra Hope:
Or... or the Helmet of Fate looming large in the background? Maybe not as compelling. I still like this cover though. Links to more of October's comics covers and issue descriptions:

Daredevil # 512 by Roberto de la Torre:
Fitting. A funeral pyre to mark the end of this numbering of the title. I suppose Daredevil might be dead too! X-Men: To Serve and Protect # 1 (of 4) by Nick Bradshaw:
How many X-Men get on the cover before Iceman? This many, minus one. Birds of Prey # 6 by Alina Urusov:
It's clear who wears the pants here. REBELS # 22 by Francis Portela:
A Green Lantern against her own people to uphold something or other. Certainly a classic motif. Secret Six # 27 by Daniel Luvisi:
You thought there wouldn't be any more dinosaurs? You were so wrong. Zatanna # 7 by Stephane Roux:
Something Zatanna might say in this situation: Steppup, pots! (Hint: Her magic is backwards wordplay.) World of Warcraft: Curse of the Worgen # 1 (of 5) by John Polidora:
In world with two full moons...Usagi Yojimbo # 132 by Stan Sakai/Tom Luth:
(View cover before coloring, as revealed at the Usagi Yojimbo Dojo.) Usagi Yojimbo # 133 by Stan Sakai/Tom Luth:

Secret Avengers # 8 by Mike Deodato Jr.:
Secrecy + Avengers, for the eighth time! Black Panther: The Man Without Fear # 513 by Simone Bianchi:
That ghostly Daredevil is probably what's left of the readership of this title. Have to see how picking up Daredevil's numbering, and tag line (the nerve!), pans out. Heroes for Hire # 1 by Doug Braithwaite:
If any organization ever needs a psychiatrist on staff, it will be this one. Klaws of the Panther # 4 (of 4) by Mike Del Mundo:
Invaders Now! # 4 (of 5) by Alex Ross:
I'll spare you some lame Eye joke here. Or will I? X-Men Legacy # 243 by Leinel Francis Yu:
When Karima gets on the cover looking like this, you can safely add the tag line: Everybody Dies! Batman Annual # 28 by Stanley "ArtGerm" Lau:
Gotham City Sirens # 18 by Guillem March:
Batgirl # 16 by Dustin Nguyen:
You'd think a girl could get out of the spotlight on a rooftop dressed in a costume like that. Guess not! Justice League: Generation Lost # 15 by Dustin Nguyen:
Heroes backed against posters are a favorite of mine. Zatanna # 8 by Stephane Roux:
Like a teppup no a gnirts. (Don't wrinkle your brow like that. I already told you how this works. Pay attention, please.) Usagi Yojimbo # 134 by Stan Sakai/Tom Luth:
(View cover before coloring, as revealed at the Usagi Yojimbo Dojo.) Links to more of December's comics covers and issue descriptions:
