I like the styling of the "insides" very much, I'm sometimes not so sure
about the covers. I like the present one. I didn't like the "Austin Powers"
one because IMO it looked like a comic (image to potential buyer
cheap/tacky?) and missed any potential spin-off interest as the movie is so
old - all in oddly out of place. The "G-Rex" one for example I had mixed
feelings about as it looked cartooney yet quite humourous in a Chewits
Monster kind of way. My favourite designs were some of the early ones like
the Phoenix with nest and boing-eggs, really imaginative & striking. The
sort of images that were good enough in their own right to perhaps get
someone to have a browse out of curiosity.
