Marvel Mod Covers

Howdy guys!  Unko has kindly agreed to help me create some covers for my Marvel Adventures mod's campaigns.  I'm mostly adapting classic story arcs, so there are a ton of great covers already extant for what I want to do, at least for the most part.  However, there are some missions I could really use help finding appropriate images for.  This thread is my call for help.  Please recommend some fitting covers (or images that could work as covers) to fit the missions that aren't already covered.  I will especially need help for the characters who I'm not that familiar with. Come on FR, I need your expertise!

Some general guidelines.  The basic style of the mod is Bronze Age Marvel, the X-Men are a mix of Claremont's run and 90s 'toon, the Avengers are mostly classic, pre-Beast and the 80s additions and changes, but with a pretty big and flexible roster.  The others are pretty much straightforward Bronze Age or earlier.

So, here's what I'm looking for:

X-Men vs. Sentinels, specifically, the All-New team from Claremont's run.  The team is assaulting a mountain to destroy the robots' base.  I'm already using this for a previous mission:

Which cover should I use for a big brawl between the X-Men and Magneto and the Brotherhood?:

X-Men vs. the Imperial Guard: I've got this one, but is there a better choice?
http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/marveldatabase/images/a/a9/X-Men_Vol_1_107.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20070228220200

X-Men vs. Kree, Skrull, or Kree AND Skrull troops

X-Men vs. Deathbird OR Super-Skrull

Gambit vs. Assassins Guild

Gambit vs. Assassins Guild part deux, OR the raging Cajun vs. a mess of assassins/villains, something like this:
http://freedomreborn.net/forums/index.php?topic=55729.msg794596#msg794596

Spider-Man vs. Electro, Rhino, or both

Daredevil vs. Bullseye (with Elektra involved perhaps)

Powerman and Iron Fist vs. various Marvel villains, a good brawl-like cover

Spider-Man and Daredevil vs. Kingpin OR one or the other, OR heroes vs. an army of villains

Avengers vs. Kree Starforce

Fantastic Four vs. Blastaar AND Annihilius

Thor (and the Warriors 3) vs. Frost Giants

:EDIT:

Iron Man vs. Blacklash, Living Laser (classic costume), OR both

Iron Man vs. Crimson Dynamo (perhaps with Unicorn)

Iron Man vs. Mandarin's Deathsquad or Ultimo

Iron Man vs. Mandarin (and his Robot Reserve) (using this version of Mandarin: http://comicvine.gamespot.com/images/1300-591869)

More to come!

I couldn't find *anything* for these.

not a cover, but a nice image, if you're using the black suit

I'm surprised there's not more good Rhino covers.

Quote from: BentonGreyFantastic Four vs. Blastaar AND Annihilius

Not the right era, and I'm not really big on the artwork, but this was all I found with both of them:

As always, you guys are freaking awesome!  That is a great set of options!  Thanks guys!  Unko and I are hard at work choosing and (for him, editing) different covers.  I am really excited! 
God Bless
