LadyDeath Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Talk about big art... one of Baker's more unusual covers. A giantess? Good description: Filling the cover design, a pretty blonde looms large over her multiple suitors. Compared to his early romance works, Matt Baker sometimes used more conceptual thinking in his covers. The gorgeous example suggests the girl's predominance in the boys' minds, while maintaining her appeal and femininity. adamstrange, DJDemarco, Point Five and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
