Forum:Do comic book covers count as "graphics"?
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
Opening
One of the recent changes that's been recently made to our validation policy appears to be that we now count illustrations as in-universe sources, under the GRAPHIC prefix; I dunno where that ruling was made, but it's all good by me.
What I wanted to ask is if this new rule also applies to certain comic book covers? I mean, many of them are pretty easy to dismiss due to being generic (i.e. depicting characters in dynamic poses) or just being representative of whatever story is contained within.
But then we have those novelty covers that depict their own little "stories" as it were. Covers like… the retailer incentive covers for IDW's A Fairytale Life, each depicting the Eleventh Doctor and his first batch of companions in fun little scenes based on classic stories like Snow White and Peter Pan. Or these neat connecting covers of the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors at NYCC together. WaltK ☎ 14:26, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
