@Nathan – Might indeed be time for a new tag, “cheap cliche” – as in yet another cover with cliche title/subtitle/tag-line or art to include mangled and overused phrases and images that should never be seen again. In this case: “widow maker,” “brush with death,” and using attack and heart in the same title. Just. Plain. Awful.
Indeed. Although a friend of mine had a surprise heart attack in the middle of a basketball game. He survived because there was a defibrillator nearby. The doctor told my freind later, his condition was known (unofficially) as the widow maker. So there’s that. Still a cliche, though.

Like my 13-year-old says: What the crap?
