I didn’t hate “The Lazarus Spear”, and so far they’ve gone relatively easy on me. š
For this one, the artwork’s quite nice. I think the weirdest thing is that huuuuge lowercase “t” on “tales”: what’s THAT all about?
Instead of using Papyrus caps, the cover uses lower case “s” and “t” at a larger pointsize. Plus the title characters are used with setwidth narrower than pointsize. Properly tweaked and sparingly used, Papyrus can be useful.

But why does the sparkly skeleton have a furry muppet hand? Am I missing something?
I know I’ll probably get Banned from the Ranch for this, but–I don’t hate this. Yes, yes, the dreaded Papyrus, but…don’t hate it.

What a mess, and not even a hint of a shadow of the chair on the person’s back, despite the other shadows.
