I has a cover
Sep. 20th, 2007 09:51 pmI got my first Ellora's Cave cover. It's under the cut. Along with my reactions.

OK, he looks nothing like either man in the story. He looks like an escapee from an 80's teen movie.
Dear Bird, he's molesting the pumpkin.
Thumb ring. *snicker* Wrist tat *snerk* Tight little brown nipples...hmm, pumpkin guts are sexy? Who knew?

Victor and Shane
Victor is a history prof. Shane writes very graphic bestselling thrillers.

"molesting the pumpkin"
sorta of the Halloween version of American Pie?

The thumb ring got me. It's...slutty.

Date: 2007-09-21 08:42 am (UTC)I think EC's cover art mixed with stuff about 'sex it up - no more plot - no sex it up' just makes me run away laughing at my freedom. Plus there's something wrong with not showing properly aged models. There's more to the world that some Smallville Farm Boy Reject with a Kryptonite mutation for buggering pumpkins.

It's a stock cover for the line. There'll be 2 or 3, and all the Trick Or Treat stories will have them.

Date: 2007-09-21 11:22 am (UTC)I think I'd make the author name font match the title, and the "Trick or Treat" match "Ellora's Cave"

Basically, it comes down to EC's artistic director (assuming they have one) has no clue what their doing.
Все прикольно сделано!
