Shazbot Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) I don't think pre-Modern back covers really got the respect they deserved as part of a book. I was glad when publishers began to change that mindset in the late '80s early '90s. And I always appreciated when a book sported a back that showed a little more effort, or was just a bit more interesting, cool, or fun than the average advert splash. Got any favorites? What have I missed since the mid '90s? Let see some badonkadonk! Here are some of the ones I'm revisiting as I begin my quarter-century rebag. Really dig the Maxx #5 cover art that never was. The Stridex comic series was funny. And that Chromed out border on the Deathmate Red ad is so shiny I couldn't get out of the pic.

Funny thing is that this is just half of the original art and the other half actually got published as a cover. Shazbot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
