When you said I'd get a shot in the spotlight, this wasn't what I had in mind Teeds!

Wow!! Now that's a difficult choice for me personally, as I love both Lady Joanna Constantine (at least as she was portrayed in that extremely underrated mini-series) and Psi-Judge Cassandra Anderson.
But I'll go with Lady Constantine, because, 1) She's less well-known to fandom at large, 2) She seems a lot more tough and self-assured than Judge Anderson and the deer-in-the-headlights facial expression that that particular artist has given her.

Like Sisyphus, forever condemned to be looking out the window, behind some petty criminal, removing her clothes. It gets hot in these dicey situations!
At least she's updated her hairstyle. Are those earrings stolen?

Oh sure, El Fugitivo has more flesh. But I value a lady who knows the worth of a good quality shawl during a shoot out.
The lady in El Fugitivo seems to be standing like a pelican. While this may indicate 1970's martial arts comics prowess, it's not much use in a gun fight. No shawl. No weapon. It's not looking good. And as Cramer mentioned, she clearly stole the earrings that brought the heat.
Alternatively, she's somehow perched on the room's only chair. Note how all the *other* guys get to have a comfortable seat from which to look out at their impending deaths. El Fugitivo isn't going to be able to keep standing like that forever, without his legs getting sore.
Still, at least he can see the law approaching. Not like the guy in Danger.
"For the luvva Mordru, I ain't becomin' Firestorm! Now beat it, Professor Stein!"
I wanted to read more about Ronnie Raymond's stand off in Danger is our Business. But a steel trap shut on my fingers when I opened the cover. On it was a note saying "We told you it was *our* business. Now mind your own!"

So, basically it's like Green Card. The guy just stands in front of dioramas of popular holiday destinations and gets his picture taken. A quick change of hat and cardboard scenery (not expression) and viola... another issue hits the racks!
For Shame Astro Logan you big Fake of Space!

Per this discussion thread, the Kaliman folks were enthusiastic recyclers. (Note: Google Translate-d from Spanish to English.) And it seems Marvel had a discussion with them about these "homages":

Flattering imitation, no doubt. But "Woman looking over her shoulder" could be an entire category for comic book covers.
Martin looks alarmingly world-weary - or is that just the sun in his eyes? Astro Logan later wrote Around the World in a Bad Mood (and was further annoyed to discover there was already a book with this title).

It's bad enough that this didn't turn out to be a giant box of chocolates, thinks Kaliman, but what Mummy doesn't even bother with bandages? Cover yourself woman!

Magneto's downcast business aside, I like the background of the reprint better than the original   The blue gives it a hint of that SA Marvel flavor. But not just any blue.  ^nope.  ^better!
