Vote for your favorite 2014 Non-Sport Update cover

Best of 2014Earlier this month, we asked readers to vote for their favorite Non-Sport Update cover from 2014. Our covers last year ran the gamut including properties from the worlds of television, animation, movies, original art, and even card collecting. We’re excited to announce the winner.

Perhaps our 25 year anniversary cover had a leg up on the competition given that it celebrated a momentous occasion and also had the advantage of including characters from many properties instead of just one but the 25 year anniversary cover won hands down with a fairly significant lead. The cover was painted by fan-favorite artist Jeff Zapata, who is known for his work on Wacky Packages, Mars Attacks, and Garbage Pail Kids and has also worked on Marvel, Red Sonja, and other card sets. The art for this cover was also turned into one of the red-border Philly Show cards as a celebration of NSU’s achievement and handed out at the October 2014 show.

In second place (once again, by a significant margin) was the Captain America: The Winter Soldier cover. The cover was done in conjunction with Upper Deck’s popular card series. Readers chose our Walking Dead Season 3, Part 2 cover as their third favorite.

    Wow! Thanks NSU and everyone who voted. When the cover first came out I cried to myself thinking it wasn’t that good. I appreciate this acknowledgement from your readers very, very much. Thank you, it’s a big surprise.

    Happy Anniversary NSU!

    Bestest,

    Jeff Zapata
