Does anyone else long for the days of
wrap-round covers and centerspread
dredd splash pages? I know it may cause
problems for reprint but i really miss
dredd in the center pages of 2000ad...
I vote for more wrapround covers...with
the instructions on how to remove the staples!
YEAH!
I miss backpage poster artwork.
I would definitely be up for centre spreads. but most especially wraparound covers! I appreciate Advertsing is neccesary, but every now and then I'd like some fantabulous detailed scene (like Simon Gurr's Zarjazz cover).
Payday for artists too :)
Cheers

Aaaahhhh!! Wraparounds, centre spreads and poster scans.
Those were the days.
Bring them back ol' Thargy.. you know you want to.

IIRC, quite a number of recent progs have featured ads for the Meg, or the next issue or Rebellion graphic novels. Use the space on the inside back page for this & you could probably get away with a wraparound cover every couple of weeks.
It would certainly be a pleasure to see a bit more imagination put into the covers - it seems like we get character portraits virtually every week.
