I think these are really... strange, and not in a good way. I'd rather see the covers in straight scans, with the artistic treatment.

i think they're pretty goddamn electrifying if you ask me. They emphasize the inherent excellence of the original art and force you to say "gee, this stuff really WAS good, wasn't it." Watch some ass insist that this is plagiarism. If anything it is just the opposite: this guy is sublimating himself to these original masters of drama.

I have no background in the visual arts, but I think great art makes you look at common, everyday items in a new light, which I think this does.

I like them a lot. Very creative and the guy's a master with an Xact-o knife.
