Probably only of interest to the comic fan, but I really got a kick out of this site which shows more than a dozen classic Marvel covers and the alternate versions of each that they replaced at the last minute. The Amazing Fantasy # 15 (first Spider-Man) example is absolutely... well, amazing!... in terms of how bad the original cover was, compared to the one they actually used! Has to be seen to be believed!
(And in case you're as slow as I was initially: just click on your cover choice from their main page, and then when the bigger image appears, run your cursor over it and you'll see the original version. It even says that; and still it took me a minute to figure it out!)
