What was your favorite Cover Gimmick to grace a Marvel book?

What was your favorite Cover Gimmick to grace a Marvel book?

Let us take a trip back to the 90s where gimmicks were galore. Which type of gimmick cover was your favorite and do you have a favorite issue it was done on? Also do not forget Hologram covers, cut out covers, attache stickems covers, and everything else. If I left out any other types of gimmicks feel free to comment about them.

Glow in the Dark cover
Foil Cover
Chromium cover
Gatefold cover
Sketch Variant
Multiple Variants
Book came with a trading card
Raised embossed cover
Just a cardstock cover
Other or i hate these suckers

I think my favorite is probably the GHost Rider glow in the dark skull cover. It just looked cool.

Ren and Stimpy #1 - The only comic, I can think of, that came with it's own special smell.
