I think you’re right, Nathan. That thing is an explosion, as in the airplane is exploding. At least I think those are (toy) airplane wings. Or it could be a boomerang or a hot nothing.

A mesmerizing sequel, eh? Yeah, that’s exactly the vibe I get from this cover. Pffft.

No, that is one of them new-fangled single blade lighted propeller with the sun-glow cone.

Or it could be a random wormhole opening up in front of the toy plane.

Title goes off the page on the left.

Saw that title going off to the left. Oh and the “copyrighted material” notice at the bottom. Not necessary to add that at all.

Visible pixel-jaggies: always a sure sign of a quality cover.

My first thought was that something got shoved through a sliced potato that glowed in the middle. Now I realize it is plane flying into a glowing potato slice.

How does an airplane fly into a giant cotton-candy ball? IMWTK!

“Playback is a bitch” Wow, really bitchin’ front-cover blurb. Written by a totally, awesomely cool high-school-student dude?

I honestly thought it was a balloon being sliced by a knife.

Yes, at first glance I also thought the wings of the airplane were a knife.

Undercooked Pringle takes down model airplane?

I can just imagine the development process here:

Author: But it doesn’t look like a real plane.

Cover Designer: OK, so I’ll hide the airplane behind an awesome explosion. Problem solved!
