OK, I give up, which is which?

A Post-it® Note for Leibowitz

I can’t wait for him to tear into a solo on that jazz staff he’s weilding.

I never did finish the Clan of the Cave Bear series. When exactly did Ayla invent time travel and anti-gravity?

The moons drawn wrong. And the depiction of the lunar crescent is probably off too.

He’s kneeling on a skateboard and punting with his crosier.

I never realised monks invented Tetris. Avoid wearing a cowl and mitre together.

Eh, this is bad but not really GSS material. Fonts and colors are okay. At least the starkers lady isn’t in need of Space Sheep (but ow on the naked horse riding).
The floating Post It notes and hovering mitre are pretty dumb, though. Am wondering if the fancy hat is actually a tiny UFO. Although it kinda looks like a cartoon clown face at that angle.
IIRC, the book isn’t a patch on the original.

I had no idea that Headless Monks could make things levitate, or that some of them wore floating mitres. With all that, the naked woman on a flying white horse is essentially an afterthought.

Yes, with all the things levitating in the foreground, the spectral naked woman is really the least interesting thing about the cover.

You can tell she’s wild because she doesn’t have any clothes on.

The ghost of St. Lebonowitz is frustrated by the way his post-its keep being burnt up by symbolism or possibly metaphor before anyone gets to read them. If that weren’t annoying enough, the ghost mitre keeps following him around and asking him to put it on, but he doesn’t want to be ghost pope.

Is that hair under the flying horse woman just some errant hair that got on the book, or was it part of the artwork? Cause it looks like a curly one….just say’n.

@Anti-Sceptic: I have curly hair on both ends, but it’s a pencil mark. This copy was not new when I bought it.

Editor: “This is classy stuff, mind you, not schlock, so I want an accurate cover.”
Artist: “Don’t worry, man. I’ll stick to the title.”
Editor: “Stick close to the content. And make it subtle.”
Artist: “Sure. Oh and by the way, how big can I make the naked lady?”
Editor: *Groan*
