Below are the most commented covers posted in the month of July 2025.
Pick your choices for the worst three covers for the month, and then we’ll have a series of finals.

Y’know, come to think of it, you said we hadn’t seen the last of Mae Ward… and yet I don’t recall seeing any more of her book covers on here since that green-haired anime thumbnail girl cover.
