Last week we loved up on the best covers but now its time to take aim at the worst offenders. Rachel will be doing the same, although I think she might only have 5.

Here we go…

#10

I don’t mind from the neck up but the whole Gothic Peruvian look is just bizarre.

#9

Pretty and pretty boring. Even Nat looks ready to doze off.

#8

Nat has a great smile. This is NOT a great smile. What went wrong? In picking the covers I downloaded them all to my HD and then looked at them as thumbs. There are tons of covers, like this, that are just so generic and uninspired.

#7

This is a hard one to describe how I feel. It’s something to do with the tones all being very similar. The hair is brown. The eyes. The skin. The dress. I’m more drawn to whats behind her…AND THERE’S NOTHING BEHIND HER!!!

#6

Another cover where, from the neck up, it works. But that outfit…oh hell. You could explain it away if it was taken in 1990 but this is a 21st century cover! And the icing on top? “Are black men bigger?” hovering next to her head.

The suck has only just begun. Stay tuned.
