“Have we forgotten the Prophecy of Joel? 2012 will not be forgotten, okay?”
Um, not sure about Joel, but personally I’ve tried very hard to forget about 2012. It was a terrible movie.
This cover? I’d like to forget about that, too.

“Hey, here’s a picture I took of another picture for my cover! Now, somebody take a picture of the cover and slap that on your book cover, and the desecration of this image will be complete!”
Not if the painting is actually painted by this Gregorakis person, cause then he actually put some effort into it. And then came the lazy person and crapped all over it.
Yeah, I didn’t mean for that to come across as a crack on the artist, but taking a crooked, underlit photo and just slapping on the cover . . . shameful.
Yeah, I know. It’s like a textbook definition of “I couldn’t care less”. Shameful.

I don’t understand the “art by” part. Did the artist actually paint the image or just took a photo of an existing painting? If he did paint it, he did a pretty good job imitating the real icons. Too bad they’ve shat on it.
Can anybody find out the address of the author? I’d like to send him a book. Any book. Just so the guy can see what those mythical things look like. The poor man has obviously never seen one.
There is not enough money on this earth that would make me draw covers for someone like this Miller guy. Some people might say it’s just business, it doesn’t matter as long as you get paid, but for me, there is no money. Might fool me once, but twice… This poor artist, however, has made several covers for the author, who managed to ruin them all. He’s either a world class sucker, or has some special connection to the author.

I know a bit about iconography, and I’m fairly certain neither of those two people are the prophet Joel.

I am beginning to wonder if the the cover designer is really the writer in disguise.

I’m starting to think Mr Miller doesn’t actually like this artist’s work at all. He keeps vomiting words all over the top of this pictures.

My favorite part is how the text box cuts the bottom off the g.
That is about the laziest goddamn thing I’ve ever seen.

Somewhere, Catie, Satori sits, alone, in a bar, drinking to forget what he’s just seen….
