1) Marvelman
2) Bucky
3) Green Lantern
4) Silver Surfer
5) Hyperion (Superman), Nighthawk (Batman), the Whizzer (Flash), Dr Spectrum (Green Lantern) along with a dozen or more later additions
6) Brooklyn Bridge
7) "For the Man Who Has Everything", featuring 2nd Robin Jason Todd - good on Vicki to know both!!
8) Jesse Custer, Tulip O'Hare and Cassiday the vampire
9) Captain America Annual # 1 as lovingly blogged about not that long ago
10) (in order): Iconic images that tell you nothing about the comic inside; misleading inclusion of a character who's not prominently featured inside; Todd McFarlane crapola/variant covers; stupid symbolic covers that are poorly drawn; ugly covers/wrong artist for the characters; gimmicky covers; Batman TV show/silly covers; indecipherable covers; and manga style covers. Congrats to everyone who came up with four (or four-ish) as it shows you're paying attention (or cheated)!

And once again, all of the answers to these questions were presented in previous posts of mine, with the exception of the Brooklyn Bridge, as you'd had to have clicked on the Wikipedia link I included, and read the first sentence or two there for that one! I like to reward people for taking the time to read what I write!

I knew it was Captain America - I couldn't remember the issue though...

That's why they call it trivia!

You did well, though.
