New Covers For Old 2021: Day X

Are you tired of me reminding you to vote in the first annual Lousies awards?

Well… tough. After this past year, you should be used to overbearing reminders for voter participation. Gut it up!

In today’s installment of New Covers For Old 2021, amidst a bunch of lateral revisions, there are a couple of solid improvements. Does my heart proud, I say.

I can’t be the only one who is just plain freaked out by giant closeups of lips, right?

When I see the W.O.M.A.N. cover I thought about this:

Good God, somehow The Boy Who Met God is actually WORSE.

I think he’s asking God, “why me?”

Word of Mouth—Sabotaged by hamhanded typography.
Ebola—Ditto
Lady Barbara—Might have worked, without the frame and inept typography
Boy Who Met God—Getting close, but no cigar. Aside from not very readable type, why is the character on the cover up to his chin in urine?
Choices—Not much less boring than the original: floating heads (from unrelated sources) above a street scene. Very informative.
Dwarves—Again, this author has a genuinely improved cover…though he could drop the bubbles. I think it might have been nice if the cover said something more specific about the book other than telling us that there is a dragon in it…something the title already informs us.
A Sun Rose—Nope.
Knight of the Flame—Well, at least the level of boredom was maintained.
Search—Nope.
Junk DNA—This might have really worked if it hadn’t been thoroughly sabotaged by the typography.
