I'll play along on this one.
JLA 11 narrowly beats out JLI 11. Although I love the image of the giant hand squooshing the JLI members, the other cover requires the reader to actually READ it and wonder what Abnezagar (Rath? Gast?) means by a one-hour conquest. This one makes me curious.
LSH 11 wins over L90 11. Again, it makes me curious who these people are surrounding Tenz and why one carries a suitcase and another holds a banner of a tooth! Whimsy works every time.
Neither Patsy Walker 11 nor Candy 11 appeal to me for the same reason: Girls are silly but always have the upper hand over boys (much like in real life, actually). If I have to pick one, I'd say PW 11, as it conveys so much without dialogue.
Captain Midnight 11 wins out over Spy Smasher 11. The closeup with the dramatic lighting and the captain's confident expression tell me everything I need to know.

13. The DETECTIVE cover seems more menacing and enthralling. Nice art there!
14. I quite like both. I'm giving the edge to SHERLOCK HOLMES for the dizzying Cardyesque usage of POV.
15. neither are super great but I will give it to KERRY DRAKE for slightly better artwork.
16. NOW we're talking. Both of these are gripping, but the (REALLY fun) psychedelia of the SHERLOCK HOLMES must trump the realisitic yet overly tittilating 007 cover.

17. I find myself responding more to the BULLETMAN cover, because I know the villain Fiddler. I would suspect to anyone not in the know, the cover would look silly.
18. SHE-HULK will always win.
19. I seriously doubt anything can trump any LOIS LANE cover in any head-to-head, no matter what the issue number. (And yes, you may consider this a challenge for a future LOIS LANE VS. cover challenge)
20. OUTSIDERS for sure. (anti-CRISIS bitchfest deleted)

*whew* I think I caught up! *huff huff*
I especially love Flight ... could be a poster on my wall.
JLI is pretty damn good too, might be the best heroes in fist cover of all time. Except for Faust's finger JLAers.
Captain Midnight has a great name! Just like Black Terror!
Avengers also looks like a contemporary retro cover of an old cover. so cool.
They're all great but I have to say I picked the Captain Marvel jr one mostly out of bias.
Thor son of Asgard was good on the insides too!
