I love the condor. He is obviously the mastermind of this skyjacking. Perhaps it might be a better cover if you concentrated on the plane and the grappling hands. Sometimes, simple is best.

I sat up for a Halloween scary movie marathon with beer and popcorn then took a cold medicine before bedtime and had a nightmare kinda like this cover.
I call this one “Daymare at 500 Feet”. William Shatner looks out the passenger window and sees the Colossal Beasts with Five Fingers attacking his plane under orders of The Giant Claw, a minion of He Who Walks Behind the Rows.

The Addams family has turned to plane hijacking for extra cash, the American military has a new weapon called Thing Technology, or Thing has a new startup business providing plane massage.
I want to know which illiterate named their kid “Maxcine,” rather than “Maxine.” Or was it a hospital orderly or nurse who bollixed that up? Lord. Enough with the “creative spellings” (read: misspellings) of names, people!
Looking at the cover of the first “Maxcine and Isabel” book, Maxcine is too old to be spawn of the Cutesy Naming Generation (who became annoying in the 1990s as I recall).

My favourite explanation.
You’re in good hands at Red Number Airlines.
All those hands grasping at what Pop Psych 101 would peg as a blatant phalliken symbolsk … yuck! Where’s the Legion of Decency when we need them?

“Maxcine & Isabell” has a nice ring to it, though.
A whole generation of kids in need of therapy because their parents played cutesy with their names….

Reminds me / for some reason / of the Langoliers.
As far as great, new, and improved name spellings, what do you think of this gem I came across today:
Jazzmyn.
Really.
Jazzmyn.
