Someone keeps changing the actual Gustave Doré picture with a picture of a pig jumping into a lake. I've fixed it four times now.

So now we know who the mysterious villain behind Infinite Crisis is. A leaping pig. Only at Silver Bullet Comic Books can the truth be revealed!

Hey, I've got it! I've figured it out! Pig Iron, a member of Captain Carrot's amazing Zoo Crew, survived the Crisis on Infinite Earths, but reverted back to his former self, Peter Porkchops (as shown in the picture of the leaping pig). Somehow, he became twisted in the anti-matter universe and has come back to exact revenge (as shown in the Infinite Crisis cover). Captain Carrot returns and convinces his long-time friend that this isn't the right thing to do, and somewhere along the line Peter becomes Pig Iron again. Captain Carrot and his amazing Zoo Crew become the new JLA, and Green Lambkin is appointed team chairman, becoming Roland and Ray's favorite comics character!

And Alexander Luthor is revealed to be a poodle with a red dye job.

And Kyle Rayner gets chopped into little pieces with a rusty chunk of jagged iron.

No, no, no. That would be Hal Jordan (to be played by Tom Cruise, who understands how to play arrogant guys).

Well, at least now I hope you better understand my earlier comments. Stupid pig!

As to which is better...neither. They're both pretty good to look at.

My question wasn't which is better but whether you think the IC cover was inspired by the Doré piece.
