Too bad Mother didn’t get an upgrade for the cover.

It’s just the theatrical poster with zero changes. A good practice when the original art work rules, but not here

Since all four of their Brooks releases use the theatrical posters, I assume that was his call.

Does anyone know who did the cover for
Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid? It's not listed on the page
I contacted JM. His response is that it’s a collaboration with the in house art team and that’s why it’s not listed

And I'm blind: I completely missed that the branding and year are missing on the left-hand side of
Girlfight's cover.

What the heck could be the explanation there?

I'd have to think it's a misprint that simply didn't get caught.

A month of really solid covers. The only weak one might be The Long Good Friday but maybe I’m partial to the original theaterifal release art. All of Us Strangers and Teen Apocalypse Trilogy make up for it though, with the latter looking amazing from just the one picture alone.

Nothing really great this month coverwise. All Of Us Strangers is the weakest of the bunch for me, which is compounded as the one release I was most in anticipation for. Generally speaking, I'm just not a fan of tiled image approach to designs.

Araki's cinema is not my taste but at least the first two titles had a nice visual theme going. Until they totally f***ed up that theme with the Nowhere cover.

It looks like a worse attempt at the film’s teaser poster, which is sheer perfection.

wonder if Trent Reznor is gonna get royalties from the Araki packaging?
the Happiness typeface is perfect for that original image, which is also perfect and thankfully wasn't changed

Happiness was changed. Look closer at the right side of the cover and the original poster.
