Attack of the Cybermen for me please.

[Paul Clement]

I'm not to keen on any of them, but Daleks is the better option so it gets my vote, despite Hartnell's hair.

[Wayne]

I agree with Paul.

[Dirk Gently]

Morbius is not good. Attack is not bad but not great. Creature is quite good but not good enough. The Daleks would have got my vote but that pic of Hartnell makes makes him look like an old woman with a bouffant hairdo reminiscent of Pertwee.
So I've gone for Enemy of the World which is a great likeness & works for the story.

[Dave Tudor]

Not a great bunch, really. The two Tom Baker covers are particularly unremarkable, featuring poor likenesses of Tom (the 'Creature' cover looks more like Kevin Keegan!), and, in the case of 'Morbius', a wholly unsuitable smiling Tom, considering the nature of the story.

The three Pearson covers feature fairly good artwork as usual, but are rather blandly uninspired, and, either a bit too cluttered (The Daleks) or poorly laid-out - Colin appears to be happily showing his Gameboy to a tiny Cyberman!

So, anyway, I've gone for 'Enemy', as I quite like that simple layout, and it does feature a very good likeness of Troughton as Salamander.

[Stuart Wallis]

I'm probably on my own here - most likely the smell...- I think the Creature From The Pit cover's quite dramatic. (The contents arenn't, but that's another story...)

[Jonno]

Hmm, I see we have an extremely open group here for once! I'm discounting the three Pearson reprints as I usually favour orgiinals where possible. Out of the two left, I always found Brain's cover to be disappointing and not as striking as most of its contemporaries - also, I have the yellow version!

Which leaves Creature as the only one on here that I've technically got in my collection and I quite like it so it gets my vote.

[Ralph]

These covers are abysmal - are we doing all the duff ones first

Only option is "Creature", the rest should be cast forth into the wilderness!

[Lord President]

BoM 4 me!

The Daleks would have been excellent if it hadn't been for the Hartnell afterthought!

[Pip Madeley]

Just in time to vote - Enemy of the World for me!

[Dirk Gently]

Did LP actually click on the poll? I thought BoM was on 3 votes before his post.

[Pip Madeley]

I've just checked and yes he did.
