Title: Prog 2270 - Who Should Be on the Cover?
Post by: Funt Solo on 25 February, 2022, 09:46:46 PM
Which characters are iconic enough, and modern enough, to grace the cover of prog 2270 - in place of (wonderful) has-beens Nemesis, Slaine, Johnny Alpha, Nikolai Dante, Mean Machine and whoever that is under Tharg's left elbow?

Who *should* be on the cover?

Yeah Gene Hackman is the obvious choice. As I said in the review thread I'd have like to have seen Bridget Kurtis (she's in the actual Prog) and Cyd in there. Now fair to say they don't have quite as clear cut and distinctive design as those on the cover.

Brink or Gene for me, what about Stickleback as well?
