I think it might be a good idea to eventually add also back cover scans to the Wiki. This might show off some of the nice back cover art as well as help to figure out differences in printings.
Go for it.
Heck yeah, says I.
A lot of the back covers were awesome. I would love to see them included.
1stComix had back cover scans for all of his comix on his now-defunct web site. Smart move. I have not routinely scanned back covers of my collection and now I regret it, even though it would have doubled the work.

I think this is the key. If it were me doing the work (for the wiki) I'd only scan back covers that are relevant to determining printing. And maybe the occasional back cover that's particularly spectacular. But anybody who gets themselves into the habit of including back covers in their entries is also slowing down the entry process and essentially getting less work done.
Not that it matters to me, of course! And if somebody else is doing the work (ha!) then I agree that it'd be cool to see back covers too...
The question is though, do we have the space CJ to add back covers?
