New Covers For Old 2021, Day III

Let your voice be heard in our first annual Lousies Awards, where the worst covers posted in 2020 will be chosen by you, the listener! The first round of voting is open now!

In today’s installment of New Covers For Old 2021, you’ll be happy to know that almost all of them are a definite improvement, although even the improved version of some of them could still get themselves a slot at LBC. Baby steps, I suppose.

Has the revised version of Apache Lover been featured here? I know the first version was before I started reading this site, but I could swear that I’ve seen that bored couple cut out against that star field before.

Also, what is with this tread of “get a paper copy of your book, take a picture of it, and upload that picture as your new cover”?

Or maybe its just a case of “all stock models cut out and put against a random back ground look alike to me.”

That’s not a picture of a paperback book. That’s a 3D mockup, is all.

I feel disappointed and hurt by “The bleeding worlds”. If you have a gorgeous waifu you shall not use a crapy typeface.

Few things make me cringe more than seeing manga-inspired art on books that have nothing to do with either manga or manga characters.

This is getting to be depressing.

Warrior Monk is inarguably better, although I do feel compelled to point out that Monks do not wear clerical collars. It’s still a crapload better. I preferred Apache Lover’s before, rather than the after. Talk about going in the wrong direction, sheesh. Abbie Padgett is a former client of mine, so, won’t speak to that.

Phoebe Matthews seems obsessed with that model, whoever he is. Probably her boyfriend or who-knows, but why she is using him for those covers…only the heavens know. I certainly don’t.

Can we all take a moment to appreciate the glow up that Alien Savior had?
