Sorry crankyank--didn't see that you already did the lord's work on this one.

Huzzah, Knucklehead--if there's a worse cover than that I'm afraid to see it. Unless it's Asian whiz kids with herpes.

See if you can find the one that misspelled "Philippines" on the cover. I've been hearing about that for years.

Say what you want about the intent (not to mention the jingoism and that whole atom bomb thing), but the cover marking the end of the war in the Pacific is one of the all-time great pieces of graphic design.

You should get a prize for voting perfectly along with the rest of the world. Or kicked off the planet. Or hired by MTV. One of the above.

Ice cream was a fucking cover story in TIME Magazine? My inner lactard just met my inner journalist in a tooting chorus of gastrointestinal disapproval. (And I love how even "The Wedding Of The Century" couldn't even bump those gangsta cones off the cover!)

Although it strikes me that oiling up our elderly parents might help them get around better... and smile more!

And it's probably been noted a million times here before, but Heroes Masi Oka is the soul-crushingly adorable kid on the far left of that Whiz Kids cover.

Yes, that is indeed Masi Oka with the blue shirt and backpack on the Asian whiz kids cover. No joke.
