Last month, we here at ComicImpact.com started a new feature called Best Comics Book Covers Of The Month. On the first day of the month I will be posting some of my favorite covers of the past month, so let’s take a look back at some of  the best covers of February, 2011.

My favorite cover of the month was Brightest Day #20. I don’t read this book in individual issues, but I’m going to pick up the hardcover.But, I love this cover! It is some of the best David Finch artwork I have seen in a long time.
