Anonymous said...: Beautiful cover. I especially like the coloring on the foreground figure of Izzy. It really makes him stand out (probably the work of Stan Goldberg)

Can't put my finger on why exactly I like this cover, but I've had it on my desktop for a few days and keep admiring it. Just a sense of energy combined with some grit. A lot of it might not come through with just the smaller scan.; 1:05 a.m.
