Rocket Raccoon thumbnails

I put Xs next to the 2 I liked best.
 Saw it on Tumblr. Don't know if it is new or old.
Probably new.

Elz, these are so energetic and fun!

I like yr choices, but the more I look, the more I like the second one in from the top left...the action is palpable!

Thanks Marty. Now I have to give that one a hard look.

I was going to go with the one farthest right. It's like the Frazetta Conan pose. Conan the Adventurer , lancer cover
This Conan Cover

That one's got good comedy appeal--the wee raccoon body hidden by his blaster's bulk. I know just the Friz cover yr talkin' about...

Thinking of yr color painting from the previous post--the one with the giant robot...y'know, slap something like THAT on the cover of "The Albino" (yr first e-book offering), and you couldn't help but bump yr sales.

Contrary-wise, slap a story behind this one, and y'll probably interest more than a few persuadable parties.

This is, in my experience, THEE cardinal deficiency of most e-books: they have amateurish covers...covers that not only fail to pique my interest, but in fact make me doubt their contents would be worth my time.

Good point Marty. Covers do sell. I bought a lot of sci fi I just barely choked down because a good cover was involved. And movies! Get me in a movie without a good poster.

That's not my hand on the rubber gorilla. That would be a good nightmare to come to life like the Karen Black movie.
